Sprawling and gracious almost 2200 sq foot home on the "C" line- rarely on the market. This tranquil and serene Classic 7 room pre-war apartment provides well-proportioned living spaces. Potential to make a 4 bedroom home.
The very large and welcoming entry foyer sets the tone for this wonderful home. It opens up to two large rooms- one is being used as a living room with extra space for a home office, the other has both a dining area and a den/tv area. Throughout most of the home there are original recently refinished herringbone patterned hard wood floors. Additional electric was distributed throughout the unit to accommodate large AC units.
The eat-in kitchen (once a galley kitchen and staff room) has been opened up and now has an amazing amount of space to cook and entertain. A huge center island can easily accommodate 3-4 stools. Double large windows bring in lots of filtered warm afternoon sunlight. There are ,many work surfaces and cabinets, which hold many sets of dishes, glassware, and cookware, and a "collectors" worth of decorative objects and supplies. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances including a restaurant sized refrigerator/freezer, and a 6 burner professional stove with a grill top and double chef's oven (with a convection option.) Just think Thanksgiving! There is also a large butler's pantry off the kitchen that has a large stacked washer/dryer and tons of built in solid wood shelving to accommodate huge super-store shopping sprees. For your guest's convenience, there is a stylish powder room right off the kitchen.
The entry foyer leads down a gallery hallway to the serene bedroom wing. The foyer has ample winter coat storage closets and there is even a cedar closet for one's wool off season garments. There you will find 3 very spacious bedrooms with ample closet space, built ins, and desk areas for home office activity. The primary bedroom has nice Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn skyline views over the local Prospect Heights brownstone roofs. The en-suite windowed primary bathroom has a double vanity, jacuzzi soaking tub and shower.
Let's face it, this grand apartment has everything you would want to call it your next home!
