On a landmarked block in Brooklyn’s Boerum Hill neighborhood, this historic property is a petite, three-story space (including a fully-finished, windowed cellar), with the same appeal–and outdoor space–as any of the city’s covetable townhomes. Asking $3,250,000, 112 Nevins Street is newly renovated with stunning finishes, designer details, and modern amenities in its chef’s kitchen and two bathrooms. The full-height rear glazing on the main floor overlooks–and opens to–an enchanted landscaped back garden.
The main living area occupies the open, sun-filled garden floor. Rich pine flooring and exposed brick walls frame the space, anchored by a stairway of wood and steel that accesses all three floors. The rear of the home is comprised of a glorious modern wall of glass panels overlooking the garden.
The well-appointed kitchen features marble, wood, and steel worktops that frame high-end appliances, including a six-burner Blue Star range and a Viking refrigerator. A convenient island and cozy dining area make the space flexible for entertaining or daily life.
The landscaped backyard is just outside the kitchen, perfect for al fresco dining in warm weather. This charming outdoor space is a gardener’s dream with a wall for climbing vines and plenty of planting space with both sun and shade.
Upstairs, the main bedroom spans the home’s full width, with windows overlooking the garden below and skylights that bring in even more light. A large en-suite bath is a design delight, with emerald Bisazza tiles accenting classic fixtures and fittings. A second chamber can be a bedroom–or a home office with a very short commute.
The home’s lowest level adds flexibility, with a main room that can be a bedroom, guest room, or den, with access to a smartly appointed full bath with a step-in shower. This warm, livable space has beamed ceilings, radiant heat flooring, and a recessed picture window. There are also laundry facilities on this level.
The home is just as charming from the outside, with pale grey brick accented by ebony window frames. The tree-lined block and surrounding historic neighborhood make a perfect setting for this jewel-box home.
