Enormous duplex with backyard - No broker fee. The apartment is sprawling with oversized rooms, 1,700 SF of indoor space and a 440 SF private backyard in the heart of Williamsburg. 2BR+office+rec room. Available July 1 or earlier. The apartment is located in a historic townhouse that was built in 1891 and was recently gut renovated. It has all the amenities of a new building including all new electric and plumbing, a washer and dryer, new energy-efficient windows, high-end kitchen appliances, a fire sprinkler system, ethernet wiring, and a brand new HVAC system with temperature control in each room. But it is not your typical cookie-cutter Williamsburg apartment it retains much of the building's original historic charm, including original wood plank flooring, two historic brick (non-working) fireplaces, and lots of original Victorian-era decorative moldings and doors. The upper level has soaring (10'-6") ceilings and a huge great room in the front with a chef's kitchen with high-end Viking appliances (two ovens!), a Miele dishwasher, Shaws farmhouse sink, and tons of counter and cabinet space. There's plenty of space for an extra-large dining table, and the living area is generously-sized with a brick fireplace and three dramatic 7'-tall windows. The primary bedroom is located in the back and is very spacious (11'-3" x 15'-9"). It features another brick fireplace and direct access to the backyard, a 440 SF private and quiet oasis with ample space for outdoor furniture and an area to garden. The bedroom is connected by french doors to a separate full-sized room that can be used as a home office, a nursery, a gargantuan walk-in closet, or any combination thereof. There's another bedroom located at the end of the hallway next to a newly gut-renovated bathroom. A central staircase connects to the lower level, which features a massive (12' x 30') room that can be divided into multiple spaces for multiple uses. Though mostly below-grade, the room gets light and air from a window and a large glass-covered staircase that provides secondary access to the backyard. The lower level also has a new half-bathroom and a full private laundry room with an LG washer and dryer, utility sink and plenty of extra storage space. Yes, a laundry ROOM. The apartment is located in the heart of Williamsburg with tons of restaurants, shops and amenities close by, including excellent schools and McCarren Park a few blocks away. It's just a few doors down from Lorimer St/Metropolitan Ave stop of the L and G trains you can get from the apartment to Union Square in less than 10 minutes! On-street parking is relatively easy in the area. The apartment is located in a two-family owner-occupied townhouse that has a building vestibule where delivery packages can be left in a safe space. Available July 1 or as early as June 1- flexible move-in date. Heat and hot water included. Please no loud-barking dogs. No broker fee.
