From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated by the home's curb appeal-featuring high-end Hardie Board siding, a charming bluestone-front porch with room for seating, and custom planter boxes that add a warm, welcoming touch. Step inside through a tiled entry foyer that flows into an airy open-concept living and dining area, beautifully finished with chevron-patterned white oak flooring. A conveniently located powder room is tucked just off the dining area, while the rear of the home opens into a stunning chef's kitchen. Outfitted with a premium appliance package-including a paneled 36" Sub-Zero French door refrigerator, stainless steel La Cornue five-burner gas range, double-wide sink, dedicated coffee bar, and ample pantry storage-the kitchen also features French doors that lead to a rear deck and a fully finished backyard oasis. Up a custom-designed staircase awaits the luxurious second floor, home to a sprawling primary suite complete with a massive walk-in closet and a spa-inspired en suite bath. The bathroom features a dual vanity, dual rainfall showerheads, and a large soaking tub, creating a true retreat. This level also includes a spacious second bedroom, perfect for use as a nursery or home office.

The front-facing bedroom features French doors that open to a private terrace. A dedicated laundry station and two oversized closets for extra storage round out this level. Ascend one more flight to the bulkhead, which leads directly to your private roof deck-perfect for lounging, entertaining, or simply taking in panoramic Brooklyn views. The garden level serves as a well-appointed one-bedroom, one-bathroom rental unit with its own laundry-ideal for generating passive income. The fully finished basement, accessible from the owner's unit, is the ultimate recreational space. Complete with a wall-mounted projector and screen for movie nights, this level also includes a convenient half bathroom.
