OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS! This majestic and fully restored LEGAL FOUR FAMILY is a quintessential Brooklyn brownstone that boasts beautifully restored ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS throughout, upgraded and well-maintained systems, and added modern finishes. Embracing the rich historic detail of Brooklyn’s architectural past, this meticulously refurbished and maintained nineteenth-century row house boasts a fully REBUILT AND RESTORED FACADE and stoop, a NEWLY REBUILT AND INSULATED ROOF/GUTTER, and a FINISHED BASEMENT. The FOUR-STORY house offers various uses to suit your needs: 1) A turnkey investment property with incredible cash flow, 2) a rare opportunity to create a single-family dream home, or 3) an option to enjoy townhouse living in an owner-occupied garden-level duplex with two tremendous income-producing rental units to offset expenses.

On the beautifully RENOVATED GARDEN LEVEL, currently being utilized as an owner’s duplex, you'll find original maple and 8-inch white oak floors, handsome millwork, ornate medallions, and wainscoting. The KITCHEN has been GUT RENOVATED featuring painted tin ceilings and exposed brick alongside custom cabinetry, white quartz countertops, and top-of-the-line KitchenAid and XO stainless steel appliances. A spacious living room, a separate office or guest bedroom, and full bathroom round out this level. The kitchen opens effortlessly to a beautifully landscaped garden with herbs, flowers, and a Japanese-like meditation path - a true oasis under a canopy of mature trees. Below the kitchen, a one-of-a-kind FINISHED CELLAR with double sound insulation, reinforced beams, new windows and doors, elegant arched doorways, and stunning polished cement provides an extension of the living space, perfect for a musician’s studio, or an artist’s workshop providing ample dry storage and a laundry room.

The dramatic and light-filled PARLOR FLOOR features soaring 12 FT CEILINGS and hardwood floors. Original pocket doors separate the bedroom and living room, and a kitchen nook is hidden in the back corner of the loft-like space. The third-floor, one-bedroom apartment, is in excellent renovated condition with an updated kitchen and bathroom, great light and two huge walk-in closets. The top floor RENTAL UNIT has TWO BEDROOMS plus a HOME OFFICE, a refreshed kitchen and full bath, skylights, and ample closet space. Both apartments are OCCUPIED BY SOLID TENANTS with leases ending June 2020. ADDITIONAL UPDATES INCLUDE a relined chimney, updated electrical and a new circuit breaker, guaranteed termite protection, hallway and stair restoration, extensive garden landscaping and Nest thermostats with smartphone controls on every level.
