Created by landscape architect Outside Space NYC, it is meticulously designed and includes a drip irrigation system, outdoor LED lighting, bluestone pavers, custom decking add-on, planter boxes with Japanese maple trees, twisted pine, crepe myrtle, and mature bamboo for added privacy and shade.

It begins with the Brooklyn charm of your own private stoop. Entering the foyer, you are immediately greeted by a stunning living space. This floor-through garden level layout is striking at nearly 34 feet deep of bright and flexible space that is highlighted by the detail of gorgeous exposed brick.

The separate dining area features space for formal or casual gatherings and is complemented by a sleek open chef's kitchen. The luxurious open island kitchen is complete with top of the line appliances and finishes including Subzero, Miele and Bosch, a marble backsplash, polished Caesarstone countertops, lacquer and glass cabinetry with Wenge details and a garbage disposal.

Exploring the lower level you find the bonus of a sprawling recreation/family room complete with seductive diner-style seating including a custom banquette table and subway tiles. You also find an ideally located cozy media lounge sporting a wired home theater system including surround sound ceiling speakers. Ascending to the sleeping quarters, you discover the second floor features two generous bedrooms. 

Completing this showpiece are 10 ft ceilings, central cooling and heating, a Caseta Lutron lighting system, customized closets throughout, industrial pipe and reclaimed wood shelving, tailored window treatments, custom door screens, a full size vented washer/dryer, Peruvian Lapacho walnut hardwood floors, and your own indoor parking space.
