Refined. Custom. Space. This enormous garden duplex stunner sitting on the coveted Cobble Hill/Carroll Gardens border has been fully and thoughtfully renovated by the current owner to maximize comfort, space and storage with sophisticated design and the highest quality materials. As you enter this 2,100+sf home, presently used as a 3br/3ba with home office, its scale and comfort become immediately apparent. Beyond the re-designed entrance foyer lies the fabulous open concept great room, which features exposed brick walls, a wood-burning fireplace, a dining area that can comfortably accommodate large dinner parties, as well as a seating area framed by two large south-facing windows. Anchoring the rear of the great room is the stylish open kitchen with brand new appliances, including a Viking range and microwave and Bosch dishwasher, attractive custom cabinetry, new lighting, pristine quartzite counters and a cavernous pantry that can store everything an ambitious home chef needs. The master bedroom is tucked away at the back of this level and overlooks the home's landscaped garden. It features an expanded master bathroom, with a walk-in shower, marble tiling and a custom-built double vanity with a marble countertop, and two large walk-in closets with custom millwork throughout. The home's completely revamped lower level features two more rooms presently used as bedrooms, both with sliding glass doors to the walk-out patio, and a massive den, featuring brand new herringbone floors, custom built-ins, updated lighting and a gorgeous full bathroom. Other features of this home include a nearly 600sf landscaped garden, brand new washer and dryer, two-zone central AC and heat, a keyless Nest entry system, video security, integrated Nest smoke detection system, new recessed lighting and Lutron dimmers throughout the home, and, perhaps best of all, extremely low common charges. 177 Union Street is an impeccably maintained 22' wide brownstone condominium. Located on a quiet tree-lined block in the heart of one of the most desirable areas in Brownstone Brooklyn, this home offers easy access to some of NYC's best restaurants, bars, boutiques and parks. You are just steps neighborhood favorites, such as Petite Crevette, Lucali and Brooklyn Farmacy, and a short walk to Brooklyn Bridge Park and the bustling Smith and Court Street corridors. The F and G trains are a short walk, as is the Pier 6 ferry terminal and direct bus service to Downtown Brooklyn. It is also currently zoned for PS 29. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A LEGAL 2BR.
