56 Hawthorne Street

56 Hawthorne is a renovated legal two-family limestone townhouse, and a lovely blend of original detail and modern comfort. This home is in the sweetest spot in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. With just a short jaunt to either the B/Q trains or the 2/5, this property has the benefits of both easy travel, and quiet enjoyment. Just a stone's throw from hiking and recreation in Prospect Park - it also has easy access to nightlife along Flatbush Avenue: well-known names like Peppa's Jerk Chicken, Erv's and the nearby Owl Music Parlor. The newly renovated ground floor and finished basement both boast beautifully designed baths, and have hardwood floors and original flourishes like a butlers pantry, decorative fireplace, and stained glass windows. 56 Hawthorne also has a completely updated and enormous tech-friendly kitchen, with all new appliances, as well as a pantry the size of an office. This appealing kitchen opens onto the ready-to-be-landscaped backyard. The breezy, bright and spacious apartments upstairs, can either stay as-is to serve as revenue for an investor, or be easily converted to flesh out a private home. 56 Hawthorne is easy to show, a joy to see, and a terrific reason to call Brooklyn, home.
