449 Bergen Street

Reduced Price! Welcome home to this rare and wonderful, 25 foot wide, completely-renovated two-family townhouse on a charming Park Slope street, walking distance to everything imaginable. Enter your late 19th-century Italianate brick unicorn through a tremendous open parlor with soaring ceilings, filled with light, masterful plasterwork and a wall of exposed brick. At the rear of the parlor and behind a powder room a suburban-size kitchen with a fully-vented Wolf range, 36-inch SubZero refrigerator, a second wall oven, and three walls of custom cabinetry. Barbeque, dine and entertain just outside the kitchen on your reinforced wood deck overlooking the serene and secluded garden. Walk down newly-rebuilt interior stairs to your new home’s three bright and spacious bedrooms and two full baths. At the end of the hallway, adjacent to the en suite master bedroom, a stunning sunroom sits just off the garden. Use it as a home office, nursery or studio. The cellar has been transformed into a gorgeous family room with high ceilings above and wide-plank pine floors below. Here you will find your vented laundry room and building mechanicals. This move-in ready gem features new kitchens in both units, new baths, new floors, new stairs, new air-conditioning systems, new roof, and new or upgraded plumbing and wiring throughout. The extra-large one bedroom rental unit upstairs can be seamlessly integrated back into the home to craft a large, single-family residence or use it to generate steady income. Converting the apartment into a two-bedroom would be simple, as well. It will be delivered vacant. To top things off, a substantial amount of buildable space affords an opportunity to add another floor (or two, ask your architect) and roof deck, making this one of the most valuable properties on the market. Bergen is a charming, tree-lined street just off Flatbush with a mix of turn-of-the-century brownstones and artisanal shops and boutiques. Travel options are unsurpassed. The 2/3 trains are on the corner and you are two blocks from almost every other busy subway in NYC (3,4,5,B,D,N,Q,R) and the LIRR. Prefer to bike? There is a CitiBike station across the street. Barclays Center is very close as is the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and Brooklyn's newest Apple Store and Whole Foods. All of Park Slope's best restaurants are within walking distance. Plus, real estate taxes are only $381 per month. This lovely, perfectly-located house offers amazing value and endless possibilities.
