Description

A townhome like no other! Welcome to 726 Macon Avenue, the most gorgeous townhouse on one of the greenest blocks in Brooklyn. Originally built at the turn of the century, this handsome home has been impeccably renovated with the utmost attention and care. With a nod to its history, this home has a perfect mix of original details, while refinished with modern touches that have been thoughtfully chosen throughout. This stunning 2 family limestone stands apart from most, in style, richness, sophistication, sustainability, and restored with top quality craftsmanship. Set up as an owners duplex above a garden rental, this is the ideal layout for flow in the living space. Enter the home's owners duplex, through the landscaped front yard by way of the stoop. This level has an open layout, high ceilings, showcasing exposed beams. A master mason was brought in to plaster the walls, custom shutters were designed and built for the home. There’s a decorative mantel, featured in the living room. Modern upgrades are seamlessly woven in, including central AC and radiant flooring throughout. The kitchen’s large island was custom built using pocket doors, original to the home. Open shelving outlines the space. There are rich soapstone counter tops, and Summit refrigerator/ freezer drawers cleverly tucked into the island. There are dual Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers and a 5 burner range. Oversized south facing floor to ceiling windows bring gorgeous light streaming throughout the day. There's a door from the kitchen leading directly to the deck and lavish landscaped backyard. There’s a powder room and a deep storage closet also on this level. On the upper level of the home there are 2 oversized bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms.
