Property Description
Currently used as a 2 family home and full of original detail, the owner's triplex is made up of 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Venture up the stoop with its original 150 year old iron railings, and enter into the parlor level to discover beautifully restored floors, original moldings, and elegant marble fireplaces. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is outfitted with high-end appliances, custom cabinetry, and provides access to the exterior stairs leading down to the lush garden which includes a 90 year old grape vine.
Up the stairs you'll find 2 large bedrooms, a walk in closet, an office and a fully renovated bathroom featuring a clawfoot bathtub. The top floor is used as a primary suite with expansive views of downtown Brooklyn from the bedroom windows. A dressing room with tailor made cabinetry connects to the front sitting room, a second office and another full bathroom with custom tile and millwork completes the space.
On the garden level, a separate entrance leads to a fully renovated one bedroom apartment featuring a custom designed kitchen and expansive living space, offering flexibility for either a guest suite or substantial rental income.
The cellar level has been completely transformed with waterproofing, polished concrete floors, repointed stone foundation walls, and steel I-beams that replaced the original wood supports for long-term structural integrity. The roof offers spectacular unobstructed panoramic views of Manhattan.
A rare, PRIVATE GARAGE that is currently being used as an artist studio has electric garage doors, and a newly paved shared driveway with a gate which means you'll never look for parking again!
The front and rear gardens are beautifully landscaped with native plantings and an irrigation system. The large rear yard is an urban oasis with plenty of space for entertaining, a cedar fence, arbor and a waterproofed patio.
Located on the border of Gowanus & Park Slope, 185 12th Street gives you convenient access to the best of Brooklyn. Enjoy local culinary favorites like Winner, Four & Twenty Blackbirds, Claro, Olivier Bistro, Bar Tano or Table 87 all nearby. Head to the nearby farmers markets and fields at the Old Stone House, the recently renovated Ennis Playground down the block and enjoy all Prospect Park has to offer, just up the hill. Enjoy the art galleries and new amenities booming in Gowanus and at the same time have the ease of grocery stores, pharmacies and local shopping of Park Slope just a block away. The F, G, and R trains are only 2 blocks away, making commuting effortless.
