Park Facing Two Family Townhouse With Parking

This legal two-family home sits directly opposite St Mary’s Park in Mott Haven. It has been newly renovated by the owner who happens to be a master craftsman and furniture maker. You’ll notice details of his handiwork throughout. From the restored white white oak hardwood floors that brighten the living spaces to the custom shelves and built-in closets, he took great care to maximize the spaces here for easy living.

The main house is a duplex with 3 bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms spread over 1,520 square feet. The living room is bright thanks to the large bay window with Southern exposure that looks out onto the park. Just off this space is the dining area, laundry closet with washer & vented gas dryer. The new gourmet kitchen has ceaserstone quartz countertops, a 6-burner gas range with a hood vented to the exterior. Stainless dishwasher and refrigerator complete the package.

Just off the kitchen is a door that leads to an elevated landing that overlooks the quiet rear garden where green grass and a mature cherry tree offer solace to those seeking a private outdoor space.

The oversized master bedroom has room for a California King frame and is fitted with enough custom closets to hold a substantial wardrobe. The two smaller bedrooms are queen sized with direct views of St. Mary’s Park. The park itself is undergoing a major rehabilitation and is nearly complete (set to open in Summer 2020). There are new tennis courts, a dog park, bike paths, lawns for picnicking and a children’s playground.

The rental apartment is a well laid out 2 bedroom 1 bath, with access to the tranquil backyard. Inside the apartment, you will find custom design features, built-in shelving units, a newly renovated bathroom, open kitchen concept and central air conditioning. Rental value is $2300.

Mott Haven is a great place to live thanks to the work of long time residents who have created a very close knit community rich in culture and history. It is growing rapidly due to a tremendous amount of new developments , some of which are coming to market in 2020. Small businesses and restaurants along restaurant row (Alexander Avenue) are locally owned and thriving here thanks to recent investments.
