About this House

Welcome to 1220 Herkimer St, an Impeccably renovated townhome that perfectly combines high-end finishes, charming detail, and the conveniences of today's modern living.
This Two-Family townhouse consists of an upper duplex with access to a terrace and a gated private backyard, over a first-floor 2 bedroom rental apartment.
As you enter the restored original double doors through the parlor level you are greeted by a magnificent open-concept living room & dining room featuring wide herringbone-designed hardwood flooring, gigantic south-facing windows, and tall ceilings. To the rear of the home is a magnificent kitchen adorned with striking quartz waterfall countertops, a floor-to-ceiling glass door leading to the terrace, and an oasis of a backyard. The kitchen is a chef's dream with a full suite of Bertazzoni appliances including a 6 burner gas range, wide french door refrigerator, dishwasher, and floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. Additionally on the side of the kitchen is a large bedroom with gigantic windows overlooking the backyard perfect for an additional bedroom or large home office. There is also a full bathroom on this level.
Upstairs houses two extra large primary bedrooms each with their own en-suite bathroom. At the front of the home, the bedroom has 3 gigantic south-facing windows and two large closets. The en-suite bathroom is finished with stunning marble tiling, brass fixtures, and a double vanity. At the rear of the home is the second very large bedroom with 2 gigantic windows looking out to the backyard and another full en-suite bathroom with a deep soaking tub and a double vanity. Off the hall is a Washer/Dryer.
The first floor houses a lovely 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment with its own separate entrance as well as its own mechanicals and HVAC so the tenant would pay their own utilities and the high rent can help offset the mortgage.
From the garden-level entrance, a separate door leads to the finished basement, which can be used by the owner's unit for additional space or added to the first-floor unit for higher rental income.

Located on a lovely tree-lined block in Ocean Hill/Bed-Stuy filled with townhomes and brownstone, this property is just around the corner from local shops like Daily Press, restaurants, supermarkets, and public transportation; the A/C Train on Rockaway, providing easy access to all that the city has to offer.
