Property Description for 240 Leonard Street

Welcome home to 240 Leonard Street located on a quiet tree-lined street in the heart of Williamsburg. This bright and beautiful four bedroom / three bathroom family home has been fully renovated with thoughtful design details throughout.

The entrance to the three-level townhouse is warm and inviting. You have custom brass, white powder coated and crystal lighting, modern linear indoor stair railing, and French pocket doors that lead into the open living / dining / kitchen. The kitchen features restored oak cabinetry with brass finishes, custom brass pendant lighting, white Cambria quartz countertops, granite composite sink, new KitchenAid stainless steel appliances including oven, refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher, and ample countertop space and storage. Off the kitchen is the unimpeded newly landscaped garden with blue stone step to the lawn and shrubs, a Japanese cherry blossom tree and space for planting and dining - ideal for outdoor entertaining or relaxing, and a unique opportunity for the budding urban gardener to create a private oasis.

Back inside, and heading up the skylight-lit stairwell, the warmth continues with the master bedroom, bathroom, and additional two bedrooms. The master bedroom presents incredible natural light with built-in cabinetry, floor to ceiling closets and a brick finished accent wall. Downstairs you find a spacious laundry / utility room / home office with Bosch washer and dryer and plentiful storage, and a separate large guest room which can be used as another living space/den with a fitted closet.

Each level in the townhouse has a full bathroom with Duravit fittings. The upstairs master bathroom features imported Italian ceramic herringbone tiling, a walnut double vanity, a towel warmer and a full sized bath/shower. The other two bathrooms are simply and elegantly designed with walk-in showers.

The stunning home has solid white oak flooring throughout, Fallow and Ball palettes, new windows with Shade Store window treatments, double insulated siding and ceiling for greater efficiencies, complete ductless HVAC system, ADT security, fitted smoke/CM detectors on every level/room, radiators and a Nest thermostat. All electrics and plumbing throughout the house are brand new. What more could you need? This house is move-in ready!

Conveniently two blocks from the L and G trains, and alternatively a short distance to the J, M, Z trains, the townhouse is located in a quiet neighborhood but with close proximity to all that Williamsburg has become known internationally to offer.

East Williamsburg | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

East Williamsburg is a mixed industrial neighborhood in Brooklyn, with many working factories that make everything from beer and wontons to clothing and concrete. You are likely to hear screeching, pounding and the deep thump of industrial machinery throughout the day. East Williamsburg has become a haven for artists and musicians of every description, who are attracted to the large open loft spaces of the converted industrial buildings. The area has attracted a younger crowd of 20- and 30-somethings that are drawn by affordable rents and a generally lower cost of living.

There is a rich history of immigrants from Puerto Rico and Italy, and oddly enough, they chose to settle on opposite ends of Graham Avenue, with the Italians on the north and the Puerto Ricans on the south.

Housing in the area consists of mid-rise apartment buildings, row houses, and public housing complexes. There are also smaller multi-family apartment buildings available. Lofts are becoming more prevalent as the older, abandoned factory buildings come up for sale and are converted into residential properties. 

East Williamsburgfairly pulses with a creative vibe. There are unique shopping venues, numerous tiny coffee shops, interesting restaurants, and cafes, along with food trucks that frequent the area. The grocery stores are affordable and carry a wide variety of goods that appeal to the eclectic tastes of the neighborhood residents.

There is a vibrant bar scene, where you will find mostly local residents imbibing, so it is easy to make friends among your neighbors if you stop in frequently at your favorite watering hole. There are many interesting shops, bars and restaurants tucked in amongst the warehouses and factories. Many do not invest in elaborate signage, so it can be difficult to find some of the best spots. Keep an eye out for hand-painted signs on the sides of buildings with arrows pointing to nondescript, nearly invisible entrances.
