Built in 1899 this 20' wide townhouse is located on a beautiful tree lined block in Brooklyn's expanded Stuyvesant Heights historic district. This stunning 2-unit home is currently configured as an owner's 2-bedroom 2-bath plus office upper duplex and a floor through 1-bedroom plus den rental apartment on the garden level. 717 Greene Avenue has been beautifully renovated from top to bottom with a design that seamlessly blends architectural craftsmanship with contemporary and functional designer upgrades.

The south-facing, sunny living room in the upper duplex includes two floor-to-ceiling windows, stylishly restored black crown moldings and window castings, an exposed brick wall, modern light fixtures, wood floors and a stunningly appointed staircase with a skylight. The rear of the parlor level has a beautifully designed open, windowed kitchen with incredible details. It's equipped with a massive Quartz waterfall center island, Olde London Farmhouse Fireclay sink and a luxury appliance package that includes a stainless-steel (Kenmore) double-door refrigerator with bottom drawer freezer, stacked ranges (Whirlpool), vented gas cooktop (Kenmore), seamless dishwasher (Bosch), and two stylishly fitted beer/wine taps (suitable for all beverages). The parlor floor has reclaimed wood shelving, space for a kitchen table, a small office nook, access to the garden and a full bathroom equipped with a bathtub, contemporary mosaic tiles and a stylish vanity with walnut storage drawers.

Upstairs you'll find a south facing king-sized primary bedroom with a windowed walk-in closet with incredible built-in storage. The en-suite bathroom has access from both the bedroom and the hallway, and features radiant heated mosaic marble floors, a double sink vanity with large walnut storage drawers, a glassed walk-in shower and skylight. A sizable bedroom overlooking the backyard, a windowed office (or nursery), and high efficiency extra-large capacity LG washer/dryer completes this floor.

Downstairs on the garden level is a chic 1-bedroom plus den floor-through with a windowed eat-in-kitchen and bathroom, reclaimed wood sliding doors, small office area and access to the garden. This lovely apartment could be an income-generating rental or could easily be incorporated into the rest of the house.

The garden is split between pavers and grass with built in seating, planter boxes, evergreen landscaping, pressure treated lumber surround fencing and access to the basement. This home has updated electrical and plumbing, split LG A/C units in both units, and additional storage in the semi-finished basement.
