Description
Discover one of the most spectacular properties in all of Greenpoint at this phenomenal two-family home, meticulously re-built with condo-quality finishes and a flexible layout that caters to both lavish entertaining and busy daily life. Take advantage of the different possibilities by using this townhouse, with over 3,420sqft of indoor and outdoor space, as an extraordinary single-family home, and enjoy the convenience and income potential of a first-floor suite ideal as family/guest quarters, a residential rental or even a commercial office space. An excellent location one block from McGolrick Park and three levels of fantastic outdoor space complete this must-see Brooklyn beauty. Inside, bright and airy interiors boast tall ceilings, gorgeous white oak floors, and sleek stone and steel accents that underscore the chic modern aesthetic. Head to the second floor to explore the three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom owner's triplex. Flanked by eastern and western balconies and tall windows, the open-plan entertaining level invites you to relax in front of the living room fireplace or plan your next dinner party under designer lighting in the spacious dining area. The open gourmet kitchen impresses with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a massive waterfall island/breakfast bar and upscale stainless steel appliances. An oversized pantry/storage closet, powder room and workstation complete this level. Above, enjoy a tranquil primary suite with excellent closet space and a relaxing windowed spa bathroom featuring a freestanding soaking tub, a walk-in rain shower with body sprayers and a wide double vanity surrounded by radiant heated black marble floors and heated towel racks. Two secondary bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bathroom, and a thoughtfully located laundry closet adds wonderful convenience. Magazine-worthy indoor-outdoor entertaining and lounging spaces run throughout this custom-built residence. Head to the phenomenal rooftop to discover a true urban oasis with handsome decking and expansive seating areas surrounded by a wet bar, gas fire pit, lush potted palms and panoramic views that stretch to the Manhattan skyline. On the ground floor, the enchanted yard includes a paver dining patio flanked by painted brick walls and a first-class summer kitchen with a grill, sink and beverage center. Host cinema-quality screenings and gatherings on the lower level, where you'll find a 100-inch projection screen, a 75-inch flat-screen TV and an electric fireplace. A walk-up bar keeps refreshments close by with a sink, refrigerators and an ice maker at your disposal. You'll also find a large laundry room and additional storage on this level. The flexible first-floor suite enjoys two private entrances and a generous layout, including a spacious living room, open gourmet kitchen, full bathroom, large bedroom, excellent closet space and an in-unit washer-dryer.
