86 Crooke Avenue, Brooklyn (Prospect Park South), NY, 11226 | $2,295,000

86 Crooke Avenue is the best house in the best location on a block that you never even knew existed in Prospect Park South. Just a stone's throw from Prospect Park, and steps to theB/Q subway lines at the Parkside station, with a shared driveway and private garage. This fully detached home is a richly designed one-family Victorian property with 5 beds, 4. 5 baths, and elegant proportions on four floors. Enjoy light from four exposures, a homey front porch, and fantastic shopping in every direction, in addition to world-class amenities including the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens and the Brooklyn Museum. Walking your dog or taking a run in the park will be a daily breeze when all you have to do is make your way down one short block to the park entrance.
Find yourself a world away from the bustle of urban life in a historic home with a Mid-century inspired interior that offers warmth, luxury and whimsy at every turn. Enter through a gracefully preserved archway into a Great Room complete with a formal dining room, a stately living room with a jaw-dropping Cle' tiled decorative fireplace, and a grand chef's kitchen. Sliding glass doors lead you to a spacious garden AND parking area in the rear. And don't miss an elegant wet bar with custom designer lighting, marble shelving, and wine fridge. Custom cabinetry with unlaquered brass hardware have been designed with practicality and storage in mind, and Quartz countertops offer immense prep space with the added beauty of a marble mosaic backsplash AND a unique reeded window backsplash that brings in light. Appliances include a vented SMEG 6-burner GAS range and a Fisher and Paykel paneled fridge. A discrete powder room has been beautifully appointed with verdant green tiles and a Calacatta Violetta countertop.
Head up the sweeping staircase to a 2nd floor complete with primary suite, 2 additional beds, and a 2nd full bath. Leafy green street views await from the primary where you can indulge your desire for a king-sized bed and a walk-in closet fit for a king. The accompanying bath is a dream with marble topped double vanity and custom storage. A glass-enclosed walk-in shower offers 2 showerheads and custom storage niches to hold all your toiletries. Cream ceramic tiles and a jaw-dropping terrazzo floor are a dreamy combo. The 2nd bath on this floor offers a calming and earthy combination of classic penny tile and dreamy Tundra Gray marble floors. The custom walnut vanity won't disappoint. Fixtures include a suite of enchanting aged-bronze cross handles fixtures, showerheads and hand showers, the perfect accompaniment to the modern classic interiors seen throughout.
The top floor includes two additional light-filled bedrooms, an abundance of storage closets, a large laundry room, and a third full bathroom. This third full bath includes a generous soaking tub with a unique bird's eye view of the yard while also affording privacy for your luxurious soaks. The laundry room is quite impressive too with its tiled floors and walls and oversized side-by-side LG washer and dryer. What could have just been a utilitarian room has been transformed into our favorite room in the house! The bedrooms on this floor share impressive views and unexpected and sizable storage areas neatly tucked away. The kids can enjoy their very own floor, or use this level for offices, guest rooms, or even playrooms, art studios or music rooms. And if this isn't enough, head back all the way down to a windowed and finished English basement where you will enjoy a loft-like space with high ceilings and natural light.
An absolutely breathtaking fa ade, porch and roof have all been restored and designed to perfection in addition to beautiful hardwood floors, all new heating and cooling systems, new windows, plumbing, sewer lines and electric. The suite of custom lighting throughout illuminates every room in a warm glow, no matter the time of day, or the season. This is a home that you MUST see in person to believe.
