About this House

Offering 3.79% Low Interest is available. As you cruise down the picturesque, tree lined streets of Midwood and pull into the large, extended driveway and three car garage of 828 East 21st Street you are welcomed by the bright, green hues of the perfectly manicured front lawn accenting this whimsical, classical revival Victorian home that was seemingly plucked straight from the pages of a fairy tale. The enchanting essence and grandeur of this 4,0000 square foot home begins there, as you ascend the stone stairs to enter the foyer, bathed in sunlight, enjoy the warmest welcome to this 4 story, 5 bedroom home with romantic details sprinkled throughout. From the foyer, the adjoining sunroom gleams, sunlit, from the large arched windows into the grand living room. The living room boasts crips, white walls and exposed, dark wooden beams that draw the eye upward. The open floor plan provides the perfect canvas that will allow your imagination to soar as high as the 9'5 foot ceilings. Whether your ideal day includes having friends and family over for quality time or snuggling up with your favorite piece of literature, the crackling fireplace and fanciful built-in bookshelves that frame a windowed reading nook will be the coziest spot in the house.The oversized dining room is befit for dinner parties and grand entertaining. The kitchen immediately provides a sense of comfort with its precious detailing in the crown molding, exposed white brick wall and glass front cabinetry. An extended countertop is conveniently located to allow for additional seating without forfeiting coveted work space. Directly off the kitchen you will find a door leading to a beautiful sun-deck for additional outdoor space.Progressing to the second level of the home, three bedrooms await. Glide across the hardwood floors to find two of the naturally, sun-drenched bedrooms adjoined by a half bath.The third bedroom located across the hall provides a sophisticated, tri-windowed setting suitable for a home office. The true star of the second floor is the generous bath.All of your worries will melt away as you are greeted by a massive, soaking tub complemented by a glass-enclosed shower. Ascend the handsome staircase to arrive at the top most floor where you will find a bedroom ready to be repurposed as a nursery, music room or study space. Suffused with warm, pale honey-hued walls and dark, wooden accents lining the vaulted ceilings and windows, you can't help but wonder if it was the inspiration of the whimsical nurseries found in fables. Adjacent is another bedroom perfectly placed to be a playroom sizeable enough to fit the most creative of imaginations and a conveniently located full bathroom. As if there wasn't enough storage space already with a closet in every room and throughout the home, descend to the basement level to find a flexible space replete with additional closets, bathroom and a laundry room even Cinderella would approve of. The massive amount of opportunity for storage or recreational space doesn't end there. Making your way outside, at the end of the driveway and just off the sundeck- a 3 car garage that could easily be used to generate supplementary income. Enjoy the Midwood community so rich with history it's attributed as home to modern day heroes such as Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Midwood offers tranquil wide suburban streets that guide you to a variety of shops, libraries, subway lines,Brooklyn College, restaurants and the Center for the Performing Arts. Manhattan is only a short commute away. Standing at the epicenter of culture, creativity and comfort, 828 East 21st Street provides the perfect home for you and your loved ones to create your happily ever after.
