1101 Ditmas Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11218

A real estate dream, 1101 Ditmas Ave is a newly refreshed colonial house that you will fall in love with at first sight. After entering through the white picket fence that lines the front yard, you'll be greeted by a beautiful garden that's complete with flowering dogwood, evergreen holly trees, and rose bushes that lead you to a serene private front porch. The love affair continues with the gracious entry foyer that opens into a warm and inviting home of about 2,496 sq ft. To the right of the foyer, you'll find an expansive living room that includes period details, a decorative fireplace and arch shaped bookshelves. To the left of the foyer, you'll find a flexible room with a private entrance from Stratford Road, half bath (that can be expanded to a full bath), and closet. Currently being used as a home office, this room would also make a cozy bedroom. When you walk deeper into 1101 Ditmas Ave, you'll be welcomed by a magnificent dining room finished with a coffered ceiling. The ornately designed hardwood floors throughout this level were recently refinished and cured to preserve original detail. The living room leads to a stylish and crisp white-windowed kitchen lined with basket weave tile flooring, subway tile backsplash, dual fuel range, and a large pantry with lots of cabinet space. Off the kitchen is a day room, with wide open windows, perfect for a work from home space, second living room or casual dining. The kitchen also leads to an outdoor patio which makes outdoor grilling and dining easy. The second floor is lined with an abundance of windows that bathe three spacious bedrooms and a full bathroom with natural light. The primary bedroom has a private terrace surrounded by year-round greenery. All of the bedrooms feature ample closet space and there is an additional walk-in linen closet on this level. One flight up, there is a full attic which is currently used as storage. This space can easily be converted into a playroom or a primary suite with an en-suite bathroom. In 2021, the basement was completely renovated. It now serves as a finished rec room perfect for your personal yoga studio, music studio or movie theater. Additional upgrades in 2021/2022 include all new double-pane Energy Star windows, premium insulated siding, all new gutters, an entire home paint job (minus the first floor office/bedroom), new boiler with Nest smart learning thermostat, an electrical service upgrade (sufficient to support installation of central air and an electric car charging station), and a Simplisafe security system. And you'll never circle the block looking for parking again with the home's detached two-car garage. Explore everything that Ditmas Park has to offer with restaurants, shops, and grocers on Cortelyou and Newkirk. Enjoy neighborhood favorites like Milk and Honey (just one block away), the Flatbush Food Coop, and the year-round farmer's market. Commuting to downtown Brooklyn or Manhattan is a breeze with the Q/B trains at Cortelyou and Newkirk. Zoned for PS 217. This beautiful abode is ready for you to move right in! A handful of photos are virtually staged and the house is just as lovely!
