Accessible either from the foyer or from its own private entrance is a spacious alcove guest studio apartment, with kitchenette, full bath, and a living space with large casement windows facing the rear yard. The second floor has a knockout master suite with custom built in storage and an enormous spa master bath; and through French doors, a versatile study (or additional bedroom) with the 4th wood burning fireplace. Two more bedrooms, another large full bath, laundry, and a flexible landing with build- in desk space and storage complete this floor. The third floor is ready for play! A grandly-scaled landing, open to the roofline, features a full-size basketball backboard bolted to the chimney. Two super-sized bedrooms flank the landing, with a full bath in between. The 3 zone central air system will keep you cool during the summer and cozy throughout the winter. This unique, captivating, versatile, welcoming and totally turn-key home will utterly beguile you! 79 Argyle is waiting for you. Shown by appointment only.

    "homeowners assoc began when this NYC historic area was built 1898-1905. On 100th anniversary residents got dressed up in formal attire with dinner and orchestra at the old Montauk Club. We host a now grand Halloween parade with kids and parents. from neighborhoods all over Brooklyn. But mainly in the heart of booming Brooklyn this is a neighborhood quiet night and day with huge elegant homes. 26 years - here our daughters grew up."
