Property Description: With park-like grounds on a large 58x100 lot and a tastefully renovated interior that boasts all the comforts of home, this spacious detached two-family residence in the Kensington section of Brooklyn has it all for the discerning owner. The expansive two-bedroom main unit is bright and breezy with an open layout and plenty of windows, all new! Enjoy meals with family or guests in the elegant formal dining room, then relax in the comfortable living room with a large bay window and tin ceilings. The airy kitchen with custom cabinets, Wolf stainless appliances, granite counters, onyx backsplash, eat-in island with stools and porcelain tile floors will impress any chef, and offers access to the sprawling rear deck and yard with a barbecue and Gazebo via glass door. Completing this level is a full bath with a Jacuzzi tub and stand-up shower. The upstairs unit features a nice-size living room, formal dining room, eat-in kitchen, study and two bedrooms; plus there’s a three-room attic that’s currently used for storage, but easily-convertible to office or bedroom space. Other attractions of this beautiful home include an enclosed porch, original parquet floors, tin ceilings, a basement with a family room, wet bar, rec room, storage room and bath, a new boiler, tank-less hot water heater, new roof and private driveway. Savor the outdoors from the wonderful wraparound front porch, and entertain or garden out back in your own very large yard space.
Location: Kensington is a neighborhood in the center of the New York City borough of Brooklyn. It is the area south of Prospect Park and the Green-Wood Cemetery. It is bordered by Coney Island Avenue to the east, Caton Avenue/ Ft. Hamilton Parkway to the north, Dahill Road and 36th St to the west, and Foster Avenue and 47th Street to the south. The neighborhoods that border it are Ditmas Park and Prospect Park South to the east (both of which are parts of Flatbush), Windsor Terrace to the north, Borough Park to the west, and Midwood to the south. Kensington is a predominantly residential area consisting of housing types that run the gamut from brick rowhouses, to detached one family Victorians and apartment buildings. Pre-war brick apartment buildings dominate the Ocean Parkway and Coney Island Avenue frontage, many operating as co-ops. The main commercial streets are on Coney Island Avenue, Church Avenue, and Ditmas Avenue. Ocean Parkway bisects the neighborhood.
