Description

Perfectly situated on a lovely quiet tree lined street, this charming 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath Arts & Crafts home is a showcase of unique original detail and craftsmanship inside and out. The classic symmetry of the facade, gracefully sloping roof and inviting covered porch welcome you into a center entry foyer with the original anaglypta wallpaper, mirrored coat rack and storage bench for taking off your shoes. Flanking the foyer is the double parlor living area on one side and the formal dining room on the other. The spacious living room features exquisite original windows with elaborate mullions, multi patterned parquet floors, stained glass and all of the original window and door frames. The back parlor has the original 8-foot-high , built in bookshelves with a center window seat, the breathtaking staircase with an up/down landing that leads to the kitchen, and a door to a recently restored, sun drenched, enclosed porch where you can enjoy a morning coffee or a glass of wine at sunset while looking out onto your bucolic backyard! The bright, light filled kitchen is big enough fora generous island or table that seats 4 and has custom Maple cabinetry, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Enjoyment of the outdoors couldn't be easier by stepping out to a deck off of the kitchen (big enough for a cafe table with two chairs), with steps down to the private outdoor space of your dreams. Completely enclosed for privacy, the huge back yard has everything you could possibly want for entertaining, gardening or just relaxing and communing with nature. The area closest to the house has a hand carved,  Pennsylvania Bluestone Patio and borders a large expanse of grass with peripheral indigenous plants and trees that include Serviceberry Trees, a majestic Oak tree with custom decking around the base, Wisteria, Camellia and more..There is a wood paneled, one car garage and room in the driveway for an additional three cars. Off of the kitchen is a convenient half bath and a Butlers Pantry with glass front cabinets and drawers that connect to the formal dining room.The gracious dining room is big enough for a table that seats 8 or more and has the original coffered ceilings, windows and decorative mantle. On the second floor are four bedrooms, two huge and two good sized, and a full bath with a clawfoot tub/shower, a beautiful stained glass window and the perfectly preserved original tile. The presence of stunning original detail continues on this floor with exquisite parquet floors, stained glass, and an original floor to ceiling oak/cedar lined built-in. The third floor has an additional bedroom with a big skylight that floods the room with light and sun and a large attic room that would be an easy conversion to another full bath. The partly finished basement is a bonus additional living space that could be an ideal office, Rec room or playroom and there is a Laundry area, plus another full bath!Recent updates include recently restored exterior, installation ofCorrect Deck fence and decking, rebuilt front and back porch, upgraded plumbing and replaced windows.All of this in close proximity to the shopping, restaurants on Newkirk and Foster Ave's, Cortelyou Road and the B & Q trains to Manhattan!
