There’s a lot to love about this $5.9 million Boerum Hill townhouse. The four-floor owner’s residence has five bedrooms, including a top-floor master suite with an entire ceiling of skylights. It also has a convenient deck off the kitchen. But what makes this such a great investment is the garden-level, income-generating rental apartment. It’s a one-bedroom unit, but it opens directly to the lovely backyard.
The apartment is not shown in the listing photos, but it has a mudroom, opening living room and kitchen with a decorative fireplace, and a bedroom with a walk-in closet that leads to the patio and backyard.
Enter the main residence on the parlor floor into a lovely living room that leads to the contemporary kitchen. Beautiful marble counters, a tiled backsplash, and cabinets with frosted glass complement more historic elements like the wide-plank floors and open hearth. The huge island can comfortably fit four stools, and there’s also room for a dining table. Throughout the entire home, there are four wood-burning and three decorative fireplaces.
Right off the kitchen is the deck, perfect for a barbecue grill. In addition to the glass doors that open from the kitchen, the deck can be accessed via another door that leads right to a powder room. Stairs go down to the garden.
Upstairs, the street-facing space has been configured as a sunny family room. There’s a full wall of built-ins, as well as another full wall of mirror-fronted closets. Also on this floor is a guest room/office, a full bathroom, and a laundry chute. The fourth floor holds two sizable bedrooms, each with walk-in closets, as well as a very small fifth bedroom that would make a great office.
The fifth floor was an addition and is entirely devoted to the master suite. The bedroom has a full ceiling of skylights; a smaller skylight brightens the master bath. There’s also a huge dressing room.
The beautiful townhouse is around the corner from the A, C, and G trains at the Hoyt-Schermerhorn Street station. Atlantic Avenue, with all of its restaurants and shops, is just one block over.
