The apartment includes 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 2 half baths, and multiple flexible living spaces across three levels. In addition to the main living and dining areas, the finished lower level works well as a home office, TV room, playroom, guest space, gym, or additional lounge area.

Features include:

*Backyard
*Renovated kitchen with dishwasher and stainless steel appliances
*In-unit washer/dryer
*Central heating and cooling
*Hardwood floors throughout
*Large windows and tons of great natural light

The home has been owner-occupied and carefully maintained, with a balance of original townhouse character and modern updates.

Transit:
3 blocks from the Rockaway C
2 blocks from the JMZ
~10 minute walk to the L

While parking is not included, we have two cars and are generally able to find parking right in front of the house much easier than in many other parts of Brooklyn.

The neighborhood has some truly great local spots nearby, including All Night Skate, Mr. Taco (best tacos in Brooklyn), Dolly's (best bakery in Brooklyn), Olmo, September, Cicchetti, Textbook Bakery, Saratoga Park, and Marion Hopkinson Park right outside the front door.

Close to several well-loved neighborhood schools, including PS 5, PS 40, and PS 137. The bus stop for Brooklyn Prospect Charter is also one block away.
