From the kitchen, stairs lead down to the lovely rear yard. Level two presents a fireside primary bedroom with en-suite bath, second bedroom and full hall bath; and the fourth and fifth floors provide additional sleeping quarters along with a library.
On the garden level is a living room with fireplace, eat-in kitchen, bedroom with backyard access, and 1.5 baths. The full cellar has a generous open layout that can serve multiple purposes, and a huge windowed storage room. This home also features 5-zone heating and air conditioning, radiant heat floors in the extensions and each bathroom, a built in outdoor gas grill, and 2 laundry rooms (on the first and fifth floors).
Heightening the allure of this extraordinary home is its coveted location on tree-lined 8th Avenue, steps from prized Prospect Park. Here you're very close to the Grand Army Plaza weekly farmers market, the Brooklyn Library, Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Garden, the shops and restaurants on vibrant 7th Avenue, subway and bus transportation, plus many other conveniences.
