Nestled away on a quiet, Boerum Hill block rests this charming, ivy-covered townhouse with beautifully landscaped front and back gardens. A much-needed private oasis in Brooklyn. This lovingly cared-for home retains much of its late 19th century character, such as the original 6 wide-plank floors, yet has updates that remain harmonious with the overall charming style of the home. Through the front gate, past the landscaped front yard with large crepe myrtle tree, enter the home on the garden level, which is configured as a large open living area with multiple windows facing north and south and a renovated laundry/powder room with a window looking out over the back garden. Situated on a 100-ft lot, the home includes a lush and tranquil 50-ft landscaped garden, perfect for lounging while admiring the fragrant plantings such as lilac, wisteria, magnolia, and honeysuckle. On the parlour level is an updated country-style open kitchen and dining room, which leads out to a small landing and stairs down to the back garden below, as well as the main living area with adjacent library/home office at the front of the house. There is also a renovated full bathroom on this level. On the upper level, the large and sunny master bedroom has an alcove, which can be used as a home office or reading nook. Two other bedrooms and a renovated bathroom with a clawfoot tub and skylight complete this upper floor. This is a legal 2-family home that is currently configured and used as a single-family home, but can easily be restored to have an owners duplex plus a separate garden apartment for extra rental income. The house also has an unfinished basement with additional laundry and storage space. Located just a few blocks from all the amazing shops and restaurants of Boerum Hill and the F/G trains at Bergen Street or the 2/3/4/5/D/N/R at Atlantic Terminal.
