For Lease
THIS SHOW HOUSE COULD BE YOUR HOME...
Welcome home to this 3,500 sqft 4 Bedroom (or 3 + Den), 4 Bathroom, 3 Outdoor Parlour Triplex. Through the original wrought iron front door you'll find an entry hall with the original built in mirror, three grand parlours with hand inlaid floors, french doors, ornate crown moldings, two fireplaces, corinthian columns, built-in bookcases, piano, pocket doors, coffered ceilings, oversized bay windows, three and five foot wainscoting --AND THAT'S JUST THE 1ST FLOOR!
On the first level, beyond the two front parlours and through the pocket doors you'll find a handsome back parlour with the original coffered ceilings, weight and chain oversize window, grand columned fireplace and five foot wainscoting. You can keep this as a library/den/media room or use it a king size bedroom (#1).
On the second level, towards the front of the home, you have a king size bedroom (#2) with bay windows, stone fireplace, 'giraffe lamp' and ensuite bathroom with walk-in rain shower. On the landing, tucked behind a secret door, you'll find a full size stacked washer and dryer with steam feature --making this the coolest 'laundry room' you've ever seen. Head towards the rear of the home for a three exposure formal dining room with seating for 12, original stained glass window, a full guest bathroom, a breakfast nook, and a chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances and an abundance of cabinets. Off of the kitchen, through the back door, is a large rooftop terrace with a three season stone container garden that overlooks neighboring gardens and Kingston Ave. The canopied pergola with seating for 10 makes alfresco dining an option rain or shine. The ten person wrap around sofa, bbq grill, and outdoor movie screen means you'll be entertaining spring, summer and fall.
Climb the skylight steps to the third level and you will find a home office with another private rooftop terrace --this one has views to the Freedom Tower. You also have a queen size bedroom (#3) with walk in closet and ensuite bathroom with skylight steam shower that will take your breath away. Down the hall is another skylight bathroom with the original sink, separate bathtub and shower. Next door is the king size master bedroom (#4) with double closets, original chandelier, 'giraffe lamp', and bay windows overlooking quiet Saint Marks Ave.
You may have seen this home in film, televison, magazines, and the web as the owner's previously used this unique 5,500sqft brownstone mansion as a set location. Lucky for you, they now want a full time tenant for the 3,500sqft Triplex. The home is bathed in sunlight, rich in history and the perfect marriage of pre-war architectural details and modern finishes. Located on what was once known as Millionaire's Row, this home sits across from Brower Park and The Brooklyn Children's Museum in Crown Heights North, a historic landmark district. The home is set back from the property line and boasts a manicured garden and raised stone porch --the perfect place for morning coffee or evening cocktails as you look out over Saint Marks Ave.
The owners prefer to rent this home (partially) furnished.
You really must see this home in person to fully appreciate the size, history and design.https://www.compass.com/listing/901-st-marks-avenue-unit-triplex-brooklyn-ny-11213/880773721220691025/
