Beautiful and Enchanting 4+ bedroom, 3.5 bath Victorian on an over sized 50 x 135 foot lot with a Two Car Garage! This Ditmas Park Victorian home is on an oversized lot with a sprawling rear garden and two car garage! The perfect combination of magnificently preserved architectural detail and stunning updates, this immaculately maintained home has benefited from a master woodworker whose enhancements and restoration of the breathtaking original detail can be appreciated throughout. The impressive showcase of pristine detail includes Lovely custom glass front built-ins, pocket doors, plaster medallions, trellis, wainscoting, decorative mantels, custom closets and magnificent stained glass. The generous foyer with a cozy inglenook where you can sit and take off your shoes, leads to the large living room with a wall of bay windows looking out onto the tree lined street and a stunning formal dining room big enough for a table that seats 12. In between the living and dining rooms is a charming family room that can easily double as a den or office and towards the back of the house is a convenient powder room and the eat-in-kitchen. Kitchen features include custom, painted wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, an island with chairs for casual dining and a large walk-in pantry closet. Sliding glass doors fill the kitchen with natural light and open to a huge, shaded back deck with steps down to a sprawling backyard, perfect for entertaining outdoors, gardening or even a swimming pool! On the second floor there are three bedrooms and two baths. The bright, oversized Primary bedroom has a cozy seating area, two bays of windows with window seats, a custom walk-in closet and a newly renovated ensuite bath with a double vanity and a glass enclosed shower. The additional two bedrooms on this floor are large and light filled, both with great closet space, and the newly renovated second bath has a custom, light oak vanity and a glass enclosed shower with a rain shower head. On the lofty third floor is a large bedroom, another brand new bath with a glass enclosed shower/tub combo with a rain shower head, a sliding barn style door and great, versatile open space that can be used however your heart desires. The finished basement has a laundry room with built in cabinetry and countertops, a huge open space in addition to two large storage closets. The house is equipped with a central vacuum and in ground sprinkler system and the two car garage and generous driveway can accommodate 4-5 cars! All of this is just a short distance from the Q train to Manhattan, and the vibrant shopping and restaurants of Cortelyou Road.
