230 7th St

Built in 1901, 230 7th Street is a beautifully renovated brick brownstone townhouse 3 apartments, with a great location in the middle of a quiet block, close to the best of Gowanus and Park Slope. Easily convertible to a 1 or 2 family. The renovation was designed by an internationally renown architect with a background converting Tribeca's famous loft buildings. He brought that aesthetic to 230 7thStreet and incorporated historical, industrial, and minimalistic design elements to create a wonderful loft-like feeling throughout. High ceilings, exposed brick, and polished concrete and clear oak flooring make this a place you'll want to explore. South-facing windows bring light deep into the house all day long. Configured with a garden duplex and two floor-through apartments above, the building is 100% turnkey as a highly desirable investment property, or could be easily used as a 1-family or 2-family home. There are four wood burning fireplaces and the original staircase is intact. The kitchens are equipped with high quality stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. There are three and a half bathrooms here, all of which feature Carrara marble. Every floor includes a washer drier hookup. The garden apartment includes a sun-filled windowed kitchen, which steps out to a large south-facing backyard with trees and plantings. Upstairs the parlor floor opens to a large steel deck that's perched high over the backyard. This is a sunny and tranquil oasis from the bustle of Brooklyn, and a perfect place to entertain, relax and enjoy every-day life. The systems and utilities at 230 7th Street have been meticulously maintained and updated, and include a new tankless water heater for the whole building. There's room to expand by up to 1,422 square feet "as of right," with a rooftop addition and/or an extension into the backyard. The F/G/R subways are just two short blocks away, and the Old Stone House Park and Prospect Park are close by. Much of Brooklyn's best shopping, restaurants, and other amenities are easily accessible (e.g., Whole Foods, Prospect Park, The Bell House, Stone Park Café, the YMCA, Barbes, and Four and Twenty Blackbirds). Come see this beautiful townhouse and make it the backdrop for your life in Brooklyn!
