Property Description for 494 East 16th Street
Beautiful Craftsman home in Ditmas Park now available! On a large corner lot, this 4BR/3.5BA home with an enormous loft attic and extra-long driveway is picture perfect and a gardener’s delight, encompassed by lush foliage, hedges, green lawn and flower beds. The welcoming front porch features overhanging eaves, exposed beams and tapered pillars, a wonderful spot to enjoy the outdoor view and fresh air. Upon entering the home the living room greets you with original details: hardwood floors, arts and crafts-style wood finishes and a wood-burning fireplace. Windows from every exposure bring in sunlight throughout the day. The generous dining room has a wall of custom bookshelves and large windows on two sides. The sizable kitchen is large enough for two chefs to work side-by-side. Just off the kitchen is a bedroom and full bath, and in the rear of the home is a lovely sun porch, a perfect place to read a book, create an indoor garden of houseplants, or take a leisurely afternoon nap.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned, light and airy bedrooms, a large renovated full bath plus an ensuite half bath and a flight of stairs leading up to an open attic with windows on 3 sides - a great place for play, exercise or overflow guests. The basement has huge storage capacity, a separate laundry room, full bath, AND an additional rec room/large office. 494 E. 16th Street is near all of the favorite shops and restaurants the area has to offer, and close to the Q/B line, giving you quick access to Manhattan from one of Brooklyn’s most idyllically picturesque neighborhoods. This is your opportunity to have a storybook home at a price you can afford. Contact us for a virtual tour!
