106 Ryerson is a two-family townhouse with the rare duplex over triplex configuration. The 20' wide house is 3615 SF and sits on a 100' lot. Directly across the street from where Walt Whitman wrote Leaves of Grass, this quaint block has a Mayberry type feel. Both residences were initially renovated in 2007/8, both have had major upgrades since that time. All the mechanicals have been upgraded; each residence operates independently with ventless hvac mini-split systems and full-size washers and dryers.
The lower triplex is an 1800 SF three bed two- and one-half bath residence plus a 335 SF recreation room below. The garden floor is dedicated to living/dining and features a handsome designer kitchen with honed Italian marble counters, abundant storage and top-notch appliances including a Bertazonni range and microwave, a Fisher Paykel Refrigerator/Freezer and Miele dishwasher. This floor flows seamlessly out through two large Pella double sliding glass doors into a beautifully landscaped garden oasis. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms and 2 well-appointed bathrooms with a mix of marble and ceramic tiles and designer fixtures. Most of the upgrades to this apartment were completed in 2020/2021.
The upper duplex is a 3-bedroom, one bath residence renovated in 2020/2021. The entrance up the main stoop serves as a convenient entry hall/ mudroom. The first level contains an eat-in L-shaped windowed kitchen featuring shaker style cabinets, stone countertops and stainless-steel appliances with a great view of backyards and trees. The deck from the kitchen feels like a secret tree house. Also on this level are the well-appointed full bath, one bedroom and the living room. Upstairs there are two additional bedrooms and an office area.
106 Ryerson is in the perfect location, just a few blocks from Pratt and its beautiful sculpture park, Fort Greene Park with its yearlong farmer's market and The Navy Yard with its Food Court. You are half a block from the thriving Myrtle Avenue commercial corridor. Restaurant highlights on Myrtle include Putnam's, Evelina Rotisserie, Lulu Mae, La Rina, Il Porto and many more. The take-out options are phenomenal. Body By Brooklyn, CrossFit, and many Yoga studios are nearby. Easy street parking, close to the G train at Clinton Washington, the B54 and B62 buses, and the Brooklyn/Queens Expressway.
