439 Sackett St, Brooklyn, NY 11231

Built in the 1840s, this stunning 20’ wide townhouse has been masterfully gut-renovated and reinforced with steel beams while retaining all of the original charm. The handsome brick facade is complimented beautifully by the brownstone stoop with original, curved doors entering the stately parlor floor. The entryway is accented by marble floors, a formal living room with elegant crowns and trim, oversized windows, and wood burning fireplace. Separated by pocket doors from a library or bedroom with custom built-ins and another wood burning fireplace, there is a full bath en suite. For less formal occasions, the home is entered through the landscaped front garden to the main level where there is an informal living room with wood burning fireplace, separate dining area, and fully renovated kitchen with Viking oven and range plus hood. From this level you can enter the huge, professionally landscaped backyard which extends to the back of the 100’ lot. Above the parlor floor, there is a large primary suite with oversized windows which connect through a walk-in dressing room to the humongous primary bathroom with separate shower, claw-foot bathtub and wood burning fireplace. Additionally there is another bedroom which is currently used as a home office. The basement is fully finished with a full bath and separate office area. There is also additional allowable square footage if a future owner wanted to expand the footprint. In total, there are 4 wood burning fireplaces. The house has radiant heating throughout, plus supplement heating from a heat pump and central cooling. There is an on-demand, gas water heater for domestic water, and a whole house water filtration system. There is washer and dryer in the basement. Sackett between Hoyt and Bond is a beautiful tree-lined street full of row houses, yet conveniently located just two blocks from Smith and Court and all of the accompanying restaurants and shopping, and half a block to Bond St where there are countless new amenities, shops and cafes. The Carroll St Train is just 4 blocks away.
