Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
Four fireplaces, high ceilings and hardwood floors give this brownstone its character. 237 Washington Avenue is a five bedroom house of about 4,400 square feet, redesigned from top to bottom. It's configured as a two-family residence, but it can also work as a single-family home with a separate guest or in-law suite.
The chef's kitchen is the room I'd look at first. It has custom cabinetry, an oversized island and premium finishes, and it opens directly onto a private deck, which makes outdoor meals easy to set up.
An entire floor is given over to the primary suite, which keeps it separate from the rest of the house. The finished lower level has a private sauna, and the washer and dryer are in the unit, so laundry never means leaving the house. In the city, that kind of everyday convenience matters.
Outside, a spacious paved private yard and a patio add room beyond the deck. A private yard is a useful amenity in Manhattan and Brooklyn alike, and it's worth thinking about how you'd use it through the seasons.
The Clinton-Washington Avenues station on the G is about 6 minutes on foot, and Underwood Park is about 5 minutes away. Osteria Brooklyn and Key Food are each about 3 minutes walk.
