1428 Sterling Pl, Brooklyn, NY 11213

This beautiful 2-family limestone townhouse in Crown Heights has modern mechanicals but still retains all of its historical charm. Step inside from the classic front stoop to find an original stained-glass window, high ceilings, hardwood floors, 6-panel doors and miles of custom millwork. Head down to the completely finished lower level, which has a rec room, a full bathroom, storage space, a bonus room as well as a full utility room. This level also has a separate entrance, so with some creativity, it has potential as a future short-term rental. Back on the main-level, the 1-bedroom unit is flooded with natural light. The enormous bedroom at the front of the home has plenty of room for an office or workout area, plus there's a bay window overlooking the tree-lined street. The rest of the unit includes coffered ceilings, chandeliers and hardwood floors with lovely inlays. Your spacious kitchen is open to the living room and features stainless steel appliances and a tile backsplash, plus a huge peninsula with pendant lights & bar-top seating. There's even a convenient laundry area just off the kitchen. The bright top-floor unit includes 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom & a BONUS separate office. This unit has all of the same historic details found throughout the rest of the building (picture rails, coffered ceilings, original millwork) plus tons of closet space. Looking for outdoor space? This home has a fantastic & low-maintenance backyard. The fence is lined with raised garden beds, and there's plenty of room on the paved patio to dine and entertain. What a location! You have dining and shopping options in every direction, with schools, parks, gardens and hospitals close by. You are also only a few short bus stops away from the 2,3 A&C trains
