71 Greene Avenue is an extraordinary one-family townhouse on a 21' lot in the center of Ft Greene, Brooklyn. Built from the ground up in 2019, this palatial home features nearly 4,000 square feet of living space spread out over five levels plus a finished cellar. The design, scale and layout of this home manage to make it feel cozy, sprawling, luxurious and livable all at the same time. The garden level of 71 Greene Avenue stands alone compared to what is currently available on the market and totally unique for what you would expect to find in a Brownstone neighborhood. The garden level is open and bright with a wall of windows 22' high that overlook a fully landscaped and irrigated garden. On this level you will find a chef's kitchen that features an abundance of Scavolini custom cabinetry as well as deluxe appliances including a Sub-Zero fridge and wine cooler, vented Wolf Range, Miele dishwasher and your very own garbage disposal. The current owners enhanced the existing Scavolini cabinetry with a new pantry, new shelving and a new banquette. The banquette is situated in the front of the property and gets great light during the day. It is intimate enough for everyday meals and yet spacious enough to host elaborate dinner parties. The dining area and kitchen both flow into a living area that is framed by a 22' high wall of windows, again providing a consistent flow of light and openness throughout the day. As we continue our journey through this unparalleled single-family home we go up one flight of stairs to the parlor level of the home. This loft-like living area opens up to the garden level below, and has large south-facing windows in the front and enchanting views of the garden through the 22' windows in the back. The flow between the garden level and parlor level of this home is truly special, allowing for an openness between the two floors that is perfect for entertaining and yet sublimely functional for everyday life. The third level of 71 Greene Avenue features a lavish primary suite in and a large second bedroom, both of which are connected through an exclusive en-suite bathroom and primary closet. The current owners added custom built-ins for the closets in addition to a wet bar, sink and mini fridge adjacent to the vented laundry system for maximum convenience. One more flight up and you will find two additional bedrooms, both of which are abundant in size with large closets and have their own very en-suite bathrooms. This floor also features a unique windowed bonus room that is accessed via sliding glass doors and is perfect for a nursery, office or play room. Head upstairs to the final floor of 71 Greene Avenue, which features a wet bar, powder room and access to the stunning roof terrace that has views spanning in every direction. One could simply not imagine a more perfect place for a celebration than the roof of 71 Greene Avenue. The exterior of the home features an elegant brick facade with oversized steel casement windows. Additional features include a finished cellar that is currently set up as an opulent home gym and screening room, complete with a powder room and wet bar. The home has a multi-zoned central heating/cooling system and solid oak flooring through out. Ft Greene was recently voted one of the 40 Coolest Neighborhoods in the World by Time Out NY. 71 Greene Avenue captures the unique appeal of Brownstone Brooklyn and yet is profoundly accessible and livable through its luxurious amenities and convenient location. Come see 71 Greene Avenue for yourself and you will never have to leave home again.
