Simply lovely. Renovated and restored with love - this house is ready for its next owner. This is a legal two family home that would be easy to use/convert to a single family, with four plus bedrooms. You’ll find a large 20’ x 50’ footprint, currently configured with five spacious rooms on the parlor level, six on the second floor, a gorgeous backyard, plus there is a large finished basement. You’ll be romanced by the sweet foyer with antique original fixture, the bay windows in the living room, the decorative fireplace mantel, and pocket doors leading into the parlor and so much more…. . The current homeowner made it her mission to maintain and restore the abundant details as much as possible to their original glory. Working pocket doors, fireplace mantels, picture frame moldings, working and restored or replaced transoms, and gorgeous original lighting fixtures, rewired for modern use. The kitchen on the first floor was just fully renovated and has mission style cabinetry, quartz counters, and includes all new stainless steel appliances, including a French door fridge, gas stove with a microwave above, and a dishwasher. Off the kitchen is a glass door to the deck, where you can sit and drink your morning coffee, overlooking the backyard. The charming kitchen on the top floor has a tin ceiling, a white cast iron enameled sink with drainboard, and original built-in glass fronted china cabinet with updates made in 2018. The bathrooms were renovated with white subway tile, and pretty black and white flooring. The basement is finished, and has a front room, rec areas, storage, and houses laundry and mechanicals. The mechanicals are in well maintained, excellent shape. Electric and plumbing have been updated throughout the house and all the windows have been recently replaced with Anderson windows. The backyard is a treasure with room for celebrations and for relaxation. You can have a dining table and grill on the patio and there is a huge area for a swing set, to throw a ball, and you can add a treehouse if you are so inclined. Staged as a single family, you’ll easily see how you would the home as either a one family, or a two family. Basement access can easily be used with either unit. Located in Windsor Terrace, on a bucolic block, it’s near all. It’s in close proximity to the F/G lines, bus lines, Greenwood Playground, Windsor Terrace Library, Prospect Park and Greenwood Cemetery. It’s just around the corner from Steeplechase Café, Brancaccio’s, Hamilton’s, Batata and Uncle Frankie’s pizza, and it’s a short walk to Le Paddock, Adirondack Tavern, Cena, Della’s, Poetica and more. Home may be the nicest word there is. This is the one that you will want to make yours. Showings start Sunday at the open house.
