Description

Discover timeless charm at 112 Nevins Street, a turnkey single-family oasis with a verdant and private landscaped garden. The house is one of remarkable contrasts: it is earthy yet refined; it is cozy yet open and bright; it is quiet and private yet moments from one of Brooklyn's bustling epicenters. Spanning two stories plus a finished, and windowed, semi-grade level, the house offers exceedingly low monthlies and a high-end (but, of course, fitting) renovation, making it a delightful alternative to a cookie-cutter condo. Entering from the garden level, oversized western windows facing the garden allow generous light into the living space. 12” pine board flooring complements the whitewashed exposed brick walls and the steel and wood stairway. The chef's kitchen, with windows facing the trees on Nevins, is outfitted with high-end appliances, including a six-burner Blue Star range and a Viking refrigerator. The countertops are marble, wood, and stainless steel, a design that is both aesthetic and practical. Adjacent to the kitchen and living room, the 20-foot-deep back yard offers a peaceful, private extension of the home. Clean pebble gravel and minimalist green planters shape a serene space, ideal for quiet mornings or relaxed afternoons outside. The principal bedroom suite is upstairs. The bedroom spans the full width of the house, complete with five floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the landscaped yard. Multiple skylights and the additional eastern exposure makes this a bright and airy floor. The en-suite bath is finished in beautiful, emerald Bisazza tiles and high-end Samuel Heath fixtures. A second bedroom offers ample storage and is easily used as a home office, a dressing room, or a nursery. On the finished cellar level, find a flexible-use space – which could serve as a bedroom, den or home office, offering character-rich finishes like exposed beam ceilings, radiant heat flooring and a recessed picture window. A second full bathroom and laundry facilities are also located on this level. The current owners recently completed significant updates to the building systems and structure, including replacing the roof and installing an advanced air filtration system. Located on a quiet block in a coveted Boerum Hill historic district, this home enjoys close proximity to Brooklyn’s cultural corridor – BAM, Barclays, Prospect and Fort Greene Parks as well as world renowned restaurants and cafes are just moments away.
