Ditmas Park treasure. Formerly a one family home with a doctor's suite, this huge Ditmas Park beauty is a rare size. Flexible and complete with a separate first floor office/guest wing with a private entrance, this home could be an amazing solution for many.  It's easily converted into either a two family home or used as a mother/daughter as there is a convenient back stair already in place. Situated on an 8000 sq ft corner lot, this 3800 square foot home with a 2 car garage, large balcony and private tree-lined side yard, in addition to dramatic beautiful frontage that could be privatized, offers flexibility galore,  With lovely archways and details, the parlor floor has a beautiful entryway, leading into a large double living room and a formal dining room. There are beautiful parquet floors throughout, shown in the dining room, and well-preserved under the carpet in some rooms. There is a huge windowed eat-in-kitchen, complete with separate dinette (21' long) and a bay window. A convenient half bath is on this level. The second entrance leads to three separate rooms, and adjoins the main sections of the home and plumbing exists for a second bath. There is a side exit that leads up to the second level, to the basement, featuring a large finished recreation room, and outside to a private tree lined side yard. The second floor features a lovely master bedroom suite, complete with ensuite bath. There are two other spacious bedrooms on this level, along with another full bath, and large, 21' balcony over the dinette, that overlooks beautiful Dorchester Road.  The top floor has three bedrooms, storage, and a large bath complete with a clawfoot tub. The basement is full, with good ceiling height, with a separate laundry room, recreation room and an opportunity to further finish to your taste. This is a great opportunity to purchase in a country like setting and have the best of all worlds - and to customize to your taste, whether you want a single family with room for home offices, professional suites, or to create a two family home, the choice is yours.  Superbly located just a couple of blocks to the B & Q trains to Manhattan and the great eateries and retail of Cortelyou Road and Newkirk Ave, including Cafe Madeline, Pasture Burger, Manchego, Koko Ramen, Purple Yam, Cinco De Mayo, The Castello Plan, The Farm on Adderley, Mimi's Hummus, Lea, the year-round farmers market on Sundays, Coffee Mob, Don Burrito, Fisherman's Cove, The Ox Tavern, Milk & Honey and much more.
