Description

313 Troy Avenue, nestled in the heart of Crown Heights, Brooklyn, offers a masterful blend of architectural heritage and contemporary design. Built in 1901, this exquisite two-family townhouse honors the craftsmanship of Brooklyn's early 20th-century architects, while embracing every modern luxury. With its signature barrel-front fa ade, a hallmark of the neighborhood, the home's exterior sets the tone for a sophisticated yet welcoming interior, framed by elegant Andersen windows that flood the space with natural light. The curvature of the barrel-front provides a seamless flow into cozy, curated nooks-creating moments of intimacy that feel both timeless and fresh.

Step inside to a welcoming foyer adorned with striking black-and-white marble tiles-a perfect spot to kick off your shoes, stow your wet umbrellas, and transition effortlessly into the warmth of the home.

As you enter you're greeted by a spacious living room with herringbone oak floors that span the entire main level of the owner's duplex. The natural light bounces off the rich wood floors, illuminating every detail of the expansive open floor plan, stretching an impressive 66 feet deep. The living room transitions seamlessly into the dining area, which has been carefully curated as its own distinct space within the open concept. Anchoring the dining area is a custom wet bar, complete with a secondary sink, a wine cooler, and arched shelving-a thoughtful nod to the home's original barrel-front architecture. The kitchen, located just beyond the dining area, is a true showpiece. With a nearly 12-foot island crowned in waterfall stone, it is the heart of this home-a space where culinary creativity meets effortless entertaining. Premium paneled appliances, including a 42-inch Dacor refrigerator, a 36-inch Bertazzoni gas range, a Bertazzoni microwave drawer, and a dishwasher, seamlessly integrated into the space offering both a functional workspace and a stylish setting for gatherings. A breakfast nook, bathed in light from the surrounding windows, invites you to enjoy a quiet cup of coffee, adding another layer to this thoughtfully designed space.

Beyond the kitchen, a stunning archway frames the rear extension, an inviting space that leads to a moody powder room featuring a floating Calacatta Viola marble sink, and a walk-in pantry. This extension provides direct access to the private garden-a serene retreat that perfectly complements the home's modern comforts with a touch of nature.

A winder staircase leads you to the upper level, where 10'11" ceilings elevate the feeling of openness. The exposed brick wall of the staircase is a nod to the home's rich history, adding a rustic yet refined charm. On the landing, a space has been thoughtfully created to serve as a library or work-from-home office-a sanctuary within this spacious home. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a walk-in closet and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with a double vanity and dual shower, all framed by delicate zellige tile work. Three additional bedrooms provide ample room, a dedicated laundry room and additional full bathroom adds a practical touch.

For year-round comfort, the home is equipped with central air conditioning, ensuring every season is enjoyed in ideal comfort.

The garden-level rental unit offers two spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet. The modern island kitchen features stainless steel appliances and ample space for a cozy dining nook. The living room, nestled against the barrel-front architecture, provides a warm and inviting atmosphere. A beautifully tiled bathroom with a soaking tub, a large hallway closet for additional storage, and a washer and dryer enhance the functionality of this thoughtfully designed unit, making it a perfect income-producing space.
