Welcome to "Stockholm in Brooklyn."A tasteful nod to minimalist, euro-inspired sophistication nestled on a quiet street in Brooklyn's coveted Kensington neighborhood.Two family currently used as one. This completely renovated and restored home invites you to enjoy the best of single family living with a front porch, parking pad, large backyard, central heating/cooling, top-of-the line appliances and 3 full baths/2 half baths spread across 4 floors.Brooklyn based designer (Minamalist Design) poured intention into every aspect of this home, with the airy and open landings, closets and economy of space throughout featuring as central to design as the tasteful finishings.Premium, 4-inch rift and quartered white oak floors canvas the entire home while matte black hardware and pops of wood and leather bring interest and warmth to clean walls and lines. Meanwhile bold and subtle tile and lighting selections inject undeniable edge.Each of the 3 distinctive and striking full bathrooms feature natural lighting and beautiful, handmade, floating Walnut vanities (imported from Canada), with matte black Delta bath and sink trim alongside Duravit toilets and up-market, tiles and lighting.Enter the home to a sprawling open concept first floor (and stunning white oak and matte black metal stairs going up). In the kitchen floats a 9ft, waterfall island for extensive food prep and hosting, plus an entire wall of pantry storage including two appliance garage cabinets. No cost was spared on the brand new, 36in Viking french door refrigerator, 36in 6-burner Viking stove, Viking dishwasher and 30in Sharp microwave, nor the matte black Kholer faucet and matching, anti-bacterial, quartz/acrylic sink. Power on and off the custom-built chimney range hood with a simple wave of your hand and feel the magic of this house come to life! Or step through custom French doors off the kitchen to the deck for easy grilling. You'll barely notice but don't want to miss the dreamy powder room where pops of pacific blue moroccan tile and gold Kholer fixtures strike a whimsical contrast to the more subtle elegance of the house at-large.The finished basement, with large scale, cement-affect heated floors and half bath makes a perfect entertainment area with bonus storage space and an extra laundry hook-up.On the second floor are two large bedrooms, each with full, en-suite baths. In the master bedroom at the front of the house, 4 large windows pour sunlight into the room and large walk-in closet area. The en-suite bath literally STUNS - a true oasis with large scale matte walltiles creating a soothing palate against bold, Moroccan tiled heated floors, 60in double vanity with 60in motion sensor backlit mirror, and large, walk-in shower with 12in Delta rain system. The back bedroom has large casement windows overlooking the backyard, two massive closets and an en-suite bathroom (with additional entry door from the hallway) featuring a deep, Kholer, soaking tub and Delta rain shower, motion sensored back-lit mirror, and mesmerizing black hex floors against linear matte subway walls.
