Description

Country style living in the city!
Nestled among the rich foliage and magnificent Victorian homes of South Midwood, Brooklyn, you will find your new sanctuary, 664 East 23rd Street. On a lush block located between Farragut and Glenwood Roads, this historic 2 Family 100 year old Victorian home has been thoughtfully restored, improved and maintained by the owners for over 20 years. The landscaped and fenced front yard and porch welcome you as you enter the huge windowed living room and dining area. From soaring ceilings, to a grand custom designed staircase, large dining room and open layout, this is the heart and soul of the house. Tucked in the rear you will find a large galley kitchen with a picture window that opens to a rear porch overlooking the enormous backyard. The house is fully detached, featuring large windows and 4 exposures.
The second floor offers 4 rooms of varying sizes that can all be potentially bedrooms with a home office or to use and design as you wish.
At the very top is a one bedroom rental unit with a huge living room, great views of the charming block and easily accessed from a side entrance to ensure privacy.
The finished and well-designed basement is a land of opportunity, whether it be a fitness center, personal space, home office, movie theater, use your imagination! There is a sizable storage room, along with a laundry room and bathroom.

The house, situated on a huge 40 X 100 ft lot, showcases a supersized fenced paved yard surrounded by planting areas and is the perfect retreat to entertain, relax, dine al fresco, barbecue and garden. The backyard is even large enough to encompass sports, recreational activities and outdoor games!

The owners have done so much to restore, maintain and smart design the property over the years. There is a new boiler, new high quality roof and sub roof, the porch was redone, the front yard iron, brick and granite fence was custom designed with 3 gates and installed at a depth to always be stabilized against floods and extreme weather. Even the high quality cement walkways that surround the house and yard were fabricated to last indefinitely.

The block has a peaceful, suburban vibe, endless historic charm and is convenient to Flatbush Avenue, shopping, schools, and transportation. Q, B trains are located nearby either at Newkirk Plaza or the Q at Avenue H and the 2, 5 trains at Brooklyn College.
