Bed Stuy Brownstone With Retro Bubblegum Pink Kitchen, Walk-in Closets Asks $1.65 Million
A standard Neo-Grec on the exterior, this one-family Mattress Stuy brownstone has a sprinkling of quirky model on the interior mixed with the predicted wood floors, mantels and moldings. The style decisions incorporate a pink kitchen area that provides a little bit of 1950s flair to 415 Quincy Road.
Historic maps display the residence and its matching row of two-tale brownstones with Neo-Grec incised facts were built amongst 1880 and 1886. Newspaper advertisements for new homes for sale and lease together the block narrow the possible day to among 1882 and 1884.
The legal one-spouse and children is set up with a second kitchen on the best flooring. Eating, main kitchen area, a comprehensive bath and laundry are on the back garden amount with parlor and a bed room higher than. The major floor contains two bedrooms, a whole bathtub and that added kitchen area.
The entry has an primary newel article and rail with a shabby chic, or mid restoration, end and sets the tone for the informal attractive touches in the residence. The white paint of the entry wainscoting extends to the moldings of the parlor, but the included ceiling medallion was offered a trace of colour. A slate mantel with incised detailing is one of 4 decorative mantels in the dwelling.
A toilet has been tucked into a closet amongst the front and rear parlors. The latter has been converted to a bedroom, with a lesser space to the side serving as a wander-in closet. There are a truthful variety of closets in the residence, which includes 3 of the walk-in variety, just one per floor.
Downstairs, the street-going through eating place has missing its mantel but has a ceiling medallion, and a pink-painted passthrough potential customers to the classic-styled kitchen. There is a black and white checkerboard floor, pink higher and lower cabinets, a porcelain sink and a white tile backsplash with pink floral accent tiles. The stove suits into a tile alcove with a shelf above. A listing from 2012 reveals the vintage cupboards have been currently in place, just given a bright new end.
The bedrooms on the 2nd ground both of those have mantels, and the floor program shows a passthrough amongst the rooms, but it isn’t distinct if any authentic created-ins survive. There is a just lately renovated total bath exactly where the design and style decisions did not delve into the 1950s but an earlier period. It functions a basketweave tile floor, claw foot tub and subway tile on the walls.
Fencing encloses the rear lawn, which involves a substantial tree (maple, in accordance to the listing) and planting beds close to the edges.
Heading by the out there listing photos, the house seems shift-in completely ready, even though the listing does not point out any mechanical or program upgrades.
The residence last bought for $547,000 in 2012. Mentioned with Sara Schwartz and Mary Wyatt of Corcoran it is priced at $1.65 million. Really worth the request?
