Description

Rarely does a home offer the space, separation, and feel of a house while providing all the conveniences of cooperative living. This spacious two-bedroom, two-bath duplex spans the fourth and fifth floors of one of Ditmas Park's most sought-after cooperatives, where residents enjoy a live-in superintendent and full-time porter.

Freshly painted and ready for its next chapter, the expansive main level is designed for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining. (It even offers the possibility to add a third bedroom.) The open kitchen flows seamlessly into a generously sized living room, creating a welcoming space to gather with family and friends. A center island connects the two spaces, while the generous dining area options easily accommodate seating for eight to ten guests, offering remarkable flexibility for everything from casual meals to holiday celebrations.

Just beyond the dining area, a windowed door opens to your private balcony, creating an effortless connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. Western exposure fills the home with beautiful afternoon and evening light, making the oversized balcony the perfect spot for container gardening, outdoor dining, morning coffee, or relaxing with your favorite summer beverage.

The thoughtfully updated kitchen offers abundant hardwood cabinetry, including some glass-front display cabinets, generous stone countertops, and recently updated appliances, providing plenty of storage and workspace for the home cook.

A spacious full bathroom with a walk-in shower completes the main level, offering excellent storage and added convenience. Duplex owners also have the opportunity to install an in-unit washer and dryer.

Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms create a peaceful retreat from the home's entertaining spaces below. A second full bathroom with a tub and abundant closet space complete the upper level, while the thoughtful separation between living and sleeping areas provides the privacy and comfort of a traditional house which a rarity in apartment living.

Original hardwood floors run throughout, adding warmth and timeless character, while in-wall air conditioning units in the living room and both bedrooms provide year-round comfort.

Residents enjoy a live-in superintendent, full-time porter, beautifully renovated lobby and hallways that complement the building's mid-century character, two modern elevators, and a laundry room with app- or card-based payment. Additional conveniences include a well-maintained shared outdoor garden, garage parking and bicycle storage (both waitlisted), Verizon Fios and Optimum internet options, a ButterflyMX video intercom system, and an impressive "A" energy efficiency rating. Cats and birds are welcome. Also, this coop allows for 10% down payments.

Perfectly positioned in the heart of Ditmas Park, you're just half a block from vibrant Cortelyou Road and its beloved year-round Farmers Market, Flatbush Food Co-op, neighborhood cafés, restaurants, and local shops. The Cortelyou Road Q train is approximately 2 blocks away, express buses are nearby, and Prospect Park's Parade Grounds are just a four-block tree-lined blocks from your front door.

Some photographs have been virtually staged to help illustrate the home's potential and to showcase how this flexible living space can be enjoyed.

Duplex homes offering this combination of space, flexibility, private outdoor space, and true house-like living rarely come to market in Ditmas Park, making this a truly exceptional opportunity to own one of the neighborhood's most distinctive homes.
