Historic Ditmas Park House w/Driveway and Garage Introducing 1806 Ditmas Avenue. This is a rare opportunity to own a stunning three-story corner home in the heart of the Historic Ditmas Park. This grand 8-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 2-half-bathroom colonial revival home sits on a spacious corner lot with an expansive front lawn and lush landscaping. A long private driveway can accommodate several vehicles and leads to a detached two-car garage. A redbrick wrap-around porch frames this stunning home and is perfect for outdoor lounging, reading, entertaining, and more. Interiors exude traditional elegance and charm. Beautiful hardwood floors with border inlays complement custom built-ins, wainscoting and millwork, sash and stained-glass windows and intricate fretwork doorways. A windowed entry vestibule with dual coat closets opens into a grand foyer with a lovely staircase and access to formal living and dining rooms and an eat-in kitchen. Fireplaces abound in this home with four between the first floor up through the third. The light filled eat-in kitchen with peninsula perfect for family meals, ample cabinet space and high-end appliances leads out into a private garden. A windowed powder room and a regal library directly off of the dining room with built-in shelving complete the first floor. Eight bedrooms and three full bathrooms sit on the second and third floors of the home. The primary suite has dual exposures, a cavernous walk-in closet, a large reach-in closet, and a palatial windowed en-suite bathroom with a step-in shower and a deep soaking tub, the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day. All of the secondary bedrooms are large enough to accommodate at least a queen size bed and have private closet space. Additionally, both the second and third floors have full centrally located windowed bathrooms, with the third floor bathroom boasting a beautiful cast iron soaking tub. Finishing the home is a multifunctional basement with a separate entrance. It boasts huge storage closets, a utility kitchen, a side-by-side washer/dryer, a wine cellar, a powder room, and an open lounge/den with a bar. There is plenty of room to create office space, a home gym/yoga studio, and more. 1806 Ditmas, meticulously cared for by its owners, sits at the crossroads of urban and suburban Brooklyn right at the intersection of two picturesque tree-lined streets. The home is the perfect suburban space and a tranquil reprieve situated just steps away from the excitement of bustling Cortelyou Road and all of the urban amenities and trendy restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops that Ditmas Park, Coney Island, and Flatbush have to offer. Kings Theatre is just a short stroll away and Prospect Park is just a short bike or subway ride away. Nearby, Newkirk Plaza provides quick and easy access to wherever it is you need to go with convenient access to the B and Q lines. Listing courtesy of Serhant LLC ...
