60 Hinckley Place

When only the very best will do, this prime example of classic architecture and wonderful taste is on display throughout this stunning Prospect Park South home. The sellers have so expertly blended the finest details and historic charm with a wonderfully executed modern renovation.

The oversized front porch welcomes you into a spectacular foyer with double arches and stairway featuring lovely ornamentation. The corner living room provides a restored mantle with marble accents and one of several stained glass windows so expertly preserved. The dining room certainly makes a statement and is equally as bright and well-portioned with four windows. One can enter the kitchen either through the dining room or through the main hall of the home. Access from the dining room brings you to an oversized prep-space/butler's pantry with sink and again four windows taking advantage of the east facing/morning light. The kitchen was recently renovated with farm-style sink, high-grade stainless appliances and Caesarstone counters. The kitchen wraps across the back/east side of the house and bathes in wonderful light from the oversized garden. There is counter seating in front of the double-size glass sliding doors leading to a back porch area or, one can consider adding a farm sized table to the central space. The tile floor certainly adds a touch of sophistication. Just off the central kitchen is a renovated powder room so wonderfully tucked away and decorated from floor to ceiling with penny tile.

The oh-so private garden provides a host of options for planting and entertaining. Yes, there is a driveway and there is also access from the back of the home to the finished lower level.

Up the stairs and past a charming second floor landing with decorative tile, there is the first of six bedrooms. The bedroom on the west side of the house, with rare diamond pane transom windows and equally impressive french doors with similar design, leads to a small terrace. The corner master with bay windows boasts wonderful proportions and provides the ultimate refuge.

One of the many focal points of this home is the absolutely stunning master bath which is larger than most bedrooms. The tasteful tiling fuses so beautifully with the option of a classic soaking tub under a chandelier or enormous glass enclosed stall shower with much space to spare to relax in ultimate luxury. There is one additional bedroom on this floor which could easily accommodate a full-size bed.

The space on the third floor (three specious rooms with windows) and another renovated bath could easily allow the new owner to use the top floor for family and or guests and keep the second floor as totally private quarters. Once again the space is bright and welcoming with a continuation of diamond pane transom windows.

Split systems cool the house and a finished basement is beyond what a buyer would even imagine with large laundry room, enormous rec space/ room for wine cellar and so much more.

Strategically located just a short distance to the Q train stop at Beverly Road, the B train at Church Avenue and all the great shops and eateries along Courtelyou Road such as The Farm at Adderly, Purple Yam along with quaint shops such as Brooklyn Artery and Sycamore. Prospect Park is just a short distance away.
