As an alternative to a co-op or condo, this three-story townhouse at 550 20th Street in Brooklyn’s Windsor Terrace neighborhood, asking $1,368,000 has a lot going for it. First, a gated private parking space is a rare New York City convenience. A sun-dappled bluestone-paved garden with a covered patio is ready for summer entertaining. And a tranquil, laid-back style and a thoroughly livable layout make the most of the petite townhouse’s available interior space.
Built on one of the highest points in Brooklyn, this 1,200-square-foot home is wrapped with windows on three sides. That means south-facing sunlight–and views of that gorgeous garden.
On the parlor level is a bright, cozy living room and an open plan kitchen with garden views. A sun-filled dining room is framed by large windows and skylights. From there it’s just steps to the garden.
On the second floor is a large master bedroom with a storage-packed en-suite dressing room and a big, bright master bath. Off the bedroom is a home office with built-ins.
Back on the home’s garden level is a lounge that could easily serve as a guest bedroom or media room. The room opens onto a fabulous covered terrace for rain-proof outdoor entertaining.
Private parking is a treasure anywhere, but it’s a real bonus here in Brooklyn. And the home’s exterior has been painted a pretty pale grey with a welcoming fire-engine-red front door.
