Magnificent 3 Family Crown Heights Beauty

This magnificent legal three-family brick home in Crown Heights is currently set up as a two-family home. One of the last two original row homes on the block, it has been remarkably preserved and nicely updated. The 20-foot-wide home was built in 1910 and still retains all of its original restrained Greek Revival Style on the exterior, including lintels, moldings, and cornice. The enclosed porch is currently used as a recreational space for the homeowner. First time on the market since 1984, this home is surrounded with historic landmarks including one of the oldest 19th Century Mansions, The Brooklyn Children's Museum founded in 1899, and walking distance to The Brooklyn Museum built in 1890 one of the oldest and largest art museums. As you step into this home the high ceilings will truly catch your eye. Every step further into the home, you'll feel like you've stepped into the early 19th century. This beauty still has its original parquet floors throughout the house along with detailing on the doors and window trims. The authenticity of the doors, fireplaces, and mantles are breathtaking. This garden duplex original floor plan was previously an open-plan layout, while standing in the living room you could see through the dining room into the kitchen. A wall was placed to separate two rooms, but the space can be easily converted back to its original open-plan layout. There is a spacious storage /pantry room located next to the kitchen, and a full bathroom on this floor. The huge kitchen has lots of cabinet space with white appliances. One of the originalities of the home is the stained glass located in the garden level kitchen. There are two separate kitchen entrances; the backyard is for private enjoyment and relaxation; the feeling of tranquility will take over. The parlor floor has four bedrooms, a living room, and a full bathroom. As you walk up the stairs to the top floor unit there is an original skylight which brings in an enormous amount of natural lightening shining into the home. The third-floor unit has three bedrooms, living room, full bathroom, and a newly renovated kitchen. The kitchen is in the rear of this unit, the jaw-dropping marble floors is a must see, with granite countertop and matching breakfast bar, it gives the kitchen a redefined upgrade the owner accomplished. The cabinets are espresso, and the appliances are stainless steel. The enclosed porch is currently being used as a recreational space for hobbies and relaxation. The basement has a new heating and boiler system, there are three meters on the premises. The basement is completely cleaned out, the home was well kept and polished throughout the years.
