As a conservationist I'm not normally into renovations of historic properties but this one has been done very well. The almost 100% intact woodwork is amazing and is unfortunate to be all painted white, however that would be the only change I would personally make for myself. I would most definitely strip all the woodwork and restore it to it's original look on the first and 2nd floors but I would be fine with leaving the white paint on the 3rd floor. I would have preferred the kitchen to have been placed in the back room and utilized the beautiful cabinetry but as is, I would partition it off from the main parlor. The garden floor would make the perfect apartment to sublease out for extra income.
I didn't think I would be watching the entire video because this particular historic Townhome wasn't exactly what I was looking for but this is fabulous! I wish there were a few rows of buildings like this in every city in America. You could easily rent the top half and live in the bottom half or vice versa.
I'm new here, I almost lost my breath when I came across this video and saw the title. I have always wanted to tour a Brooklyn townhouse/brownstone. And the relaxing sound of my favorite music. Was a true delight for me. I'm a fan💕🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💕💕💕💕👍🏽
Wow, That townhouse is big!!! I like the rooms and the fact that it has a big yard. The lower level is really nice. I am glad I came across this channel!!!!
You had me at "Bertazzoni Pro Series". My Italian step-granny had a Bertazzoni, big mfer, 96", 8 burner, duel fuel, griddle/grill, it was lovely and could cook anything, she treated it like a 4th child and left it to my step-aunt Sandra when she died.
I love that there was a full laundry room. I find that lacks in many of these properties these days but it's necessary to have a sink and cupboards, even space to do your ironing.
Thanks for your question! This home is now rented, but you can find the old listing at this link: streeteasy.com/building/96-decatur-street-brooklyn/sf
