614A 7th Ave

At the highest point in Brooklyn and on a quiet tree lined, one-way street sits an incredible, design forward townhouse, the likes of which is rarely available. Ideal for the discerning designer, artist, maker or anyone who simply loves beautiful spaces. North west windows, decks and balcony include views to the Statue of Liberty and overlook beautiful neighborhood gardens. On the opposite side of the property, floor to ceiling windows capture the tranquil Greenwood cemetery. A planted roof top offers stunning 360-degree vistas including the entire Manhattan skyline and the fenced, landscaped 50 ft deep garden is a private oasis. To some, the most important exterior asset might be the coveted curb cut and garage on which a mural of the famed artist (and Greenwood neighbor), Basquiat graces the door.

A sense of style and calm fills each of the five floors of this modern townhouse. Entering through the custom corten steel front door, you’ll ascend to a sophisticated open living and dining room. This level has lofty ceilings and an expanse of glass facing into the greenery across the street. The Viking and Subzero appointed chef’s kitchen is sleek and bright with direct access to a lovely deck, perfect for to enjoy morning coffee or an evening BBQ. One flight up, you’ll find two large bedrooms, one of which is currently set up as a media/entertainment room with a custom bookshelf that encompasses the entire wall. The second bedroom overlooks the quiet neighboring gardens. Between the two bedrooms is beautifully renovated, tiled bath and washer/dryer. Another flight up is the master level where the bedroom opens to a balcony facing Ms. Liberty. Storage is abundant in the enormous walk through closet with access to a spa like bath outfitted with a window facing Jacuzzi tube and separate rainfall shower. An additional bedroom is located adjacent to the bath, ideal for an office or baby’s room. Dark ebony hardwood floors, custom hardware and gorgeous light fixtures are continuous throughout the entire home. The expanse of white walls and open architecturally finished staircases are perfect for hanging large pieces of your favorite art.

Finally, at street level you’ll find the coveted garage, additional storage, a powder room with access to a covered patio overlooking the lush private garden. Below the garage is a massive finished basement with tall ceilings and bathed in n/w facing natural light. Currently set up as a home gym and media space, it could easily be converted into a recording studio, expanded home office or play room.

614a is located in the quiet, but evolving neighborhood just south of Prospect Park. The Greenwood Cemetery, Brooklyn's first public park by default (long before Prospect Park), was so popular that it inspired a competition to design Central Park in Manhattan.

Within a few minutes’ walk, you’ll find independent shops and restaurants such as neighborhood favorites Sidecar, Prospect Bar & Grill, Piccoli Trattoria, Camperdown Elm, Athena, OS Cafe and Battle Hill Tavern. A world class fitness facility, Park Slope Armory YMCA, is also only ten minutes away as well as Prospect Park where all of Brooklyn goes to hike, bike and enjoy incredible music at the Bandshell.

With its unparalleled views and outdoor spaces, this sophisticated town home is a rare find for those looking for a unique property. Get in touch to see the space before it is gone.
