Beautiful 2 story single family 3-bedroom home nestled in a row of 1905 red brick townhouses ornamented with limestone lintels and trim. The entry has a wrought iron and glass front door which opens to a foyer filled with light from the skylight high above the staircase. The spacious living room has oak pocket doors that open to a roomy den. The adjacent dining room has a decorative fireplace and a south-facing window overlooking the leafy backyard. The bright, airy, kitchen overlooks an oversized, beautifully landscaped garden planted with trees, shrubs and plants native to New York. Hardwood floors are laid diagonally on both parlor and bedroom levels, which are connected by a handsome oak staircase. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms, with the master being especially spacious and featuring an oversized arched window which is handsomely flanked by standard windows. The finished basement has private entry, a bathroom, laundry room, and doors that lead out to the backyard as well as separate under-the-stoop storage for bikes, strollers, recycling and trash bins.
