Uncompromising in every way. Stunning and enormous 2+ bedrooms (tons of flex space) duplex with private garden in the charming Mount Morris Park Historic District.

Brand new and freshly renovated, this elegant home boasts approximately 1950 SqFt of living space (including massive windowed rec room / home office) plus a large and private 400 sf garden. With high ceilings and oversized windows, the space is stunningly bright and airy and combines the gracious proportions of a traditional brownstone with a contemporary loft-like configuration. No expense was spared to optimize usable square feet and ceiling heights – tall pocket doors extend natural light into each room and custom built-ins and features abound. The finishes surpass those in most high-end condo conversions.

The open living-kitchen-dining space is perfect for entertaining. An adjacent bedroom is outfitted with full height pocket doors which allow breathtaking views of the private garden below. The chef’s kitchen features brand new stainless steel energy efficient appliances, quartz countertops with a concrete aesthetic and extra cabinets and built-in storage.

The luxurious spa-like baths are outfitted with marble floors, matte subway tile walls, large vanity and medicine cabinets, various lighting options, turbo powered exhaust fans, heated towel racks, premium faucets, soaking tubs and rain showers. Each bedroom features unique lighting and oversized European style tilt-and-turn windows. Extra tall closets accommodate all of your personal items minimizing the need for extra furniture and maximizing open space.

The lower level is configured as a huge flexible room ideal for a variety of uses – guest space, play room, gallery, yoga retreat or media room. This well lit space features a built-in walnut stained bench around the perimeter, recessed lighting, a mini bar, spacious laundry closet (equipped with high efficiency washer and gas dryer), full height windows and access to the private serene private garden.

Winters are warm and cozy thanks to well insulated walls and windows, hydronic radiant floor heating finished with gorgeous cork floors and thermostats in each room. In summer, the top of the line central AC system is whisper quiet and extremely efficient, keeping air clean and dry and utility costs in check. The duplex is served by a dedicated energy efficient gas boiler and a huge 80 gallon hot water tank so you never run out of piping hot water.

Recessed lighting and a curated selection of pendant fixtures, all dimmable, highlight expanses of exposed brick and alcoves.
