About this House

Welcome to this exquisite 3-family pre-war multifamily townhome with finished basement nestled
in the heart of prime Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Steeped in history and graced with timeless elegance,
this townhome offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Brooklyn's architectural heritage. With
its high ceilings, restored pre-war details, and an enchanting garden maisonette floor, this property embodies classic charm and modern comfort. 

As you step inside, you'll be immediately captivated by the grandeur of this residence. Decorative crown moldings, ornate fireplaces, and stained glass windows evoke the elegance of a bygone era. The high ceilings not only lend a sense of spaciousness but also accentuate the vintage character that defines this home.

The garden maisonette floor is a true gem, offering a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of
city life. Bay windows frame picturesque views of the magnificent Cathedral architecture across the
street, creating a sense of tranquility that's hard to find elsewhere. The layout is thoughtfully
designed for both dining and entertaining, ensuring a seamless flow of gatherings. The separate
kitchen boasts ample cabinet space and is a chef's dream, making culinary adventures a delight. 

What truly sets this unit apart is its private access to the backyard garden oasis. As you step outside,
you'll find yourself in a meticulously landscaped haven, complete with a flourishing peach tree and
a tastefully paved area for al fresco entertaining. Whether it's morning coffee amid the birdsong or
evening gatherings under the stars, this garden is a retreat you'll cherish. 

Moving to the second floor unit, you'l find an inviting space with high ceilings and a luxurious
porcelain bathtub with a marble ledge. This unit faces north, providing a peaceful retreat
from the city noise. It can also be expanded to the front portion of the 2nd floor to convert into a
2nd or 3rd bedroom. The front features bay southern windows and an additional wing for an office. 
The top floor unit has undergone recent renovations, boasting an open and inviting kitchen flooded
with natural light from southern facing windows that offer views of the Freedom Tower. This unit also features bay windows and an additional room that could be an ideal office or creative space. 

This finished basement has been thoughtfully designed to maximize functionality and comfort with
in-unit washer dryer, kitchenette, complete bathroom and private front building entrance. The
spacious layout provides ample room for various activities, whether it's creating a home office,
setting up a comfortable lounge area, or even transforming it into a guest suite.

Location-wise, you couldn't ask for more. With the neighborhood’s eponymous Sunset Park located just 2 blocks east and the stunning waterfront Bush Terminal Pier Park 3 blocks west, you'll have easy unparalleled access to acres of green space, perfect for picnics, leisurely strolls, and breathtaking harbor views of the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty.

Industry City, a hub of creativity and commerce, is also a stone's throw away, offering an array of dining, shopping, and cultural experiences. Around the corner, you can savor amazing coffee and brunch at Slimak, and a couple of blocks away, unwind with a wine nightcap craft cocktail at L’Wren or a fun night of bowling at Melody Lanes. CostCo is also just a few blocks away.

In summary, this 3-family pre-war multifamily townhome in prime Sunset Park is a rare find that
seamlessly blends historical charm with modern convenience. With its restored pre-war
details, captivating garden maisonette floor, and proximity to all that Brooklyn has to offer, this

So many places to go to everything is so conveniently located it can be loud at times but loud with music and people just being happy yes there is the occasional drunk but they don’t really bother. Sunset park is a fusion of many cultures and amazing foods. We are proud of our neighborhood sunset park."
