Sprawling and stylish at 1,900 square feet, with views of the Brooklyn Museum and Botanical Garden and the Manhattan skyline, 14I is a gorgeously designed and updated 3BR/3BA with mudroom, laundry, home office, and copious storage space.
No detail was overlooked in the meticulous renovation, which builds upon the graces of a classic layout beams framing recessed lighting; gleaming hardwood floors; charming interior design with wallpapers, custom built-ins and custom rugs that convey with sale; built-ins that anchor the living room and frame the custom Hearth Cabinet fireplace; a chef's kitchen with four-burner Viking electric range, Miele dishwasher, SubZero refrigerator, Wolfe microwave, and Marvel beverage fridge not to mention a full pantry designed with custom shelving and wiring for appliances and ten spacious closets, including a generously-proportioned and fully-built out walk-in in the primary suite.
The entry foyer opens smartly to a generous mudroom and home office set-up that could easily double as a home gym or yoga room, or be maintained as-is with copious storage for shoes, coats, scooters and strollers and his-and-hers workspace; this spacious set-up gives onto the laundry room (with vented Electrolux stack washer/dryer) and the full-size bedroom with en-suite bath perfect for a child's bedroom, guest suite, or extended home office.
The great room is majestically proportioned, with an open island kitchen, custom built-in banquette dining and play area with built-in ceiling speakers throughout, and a large living room with multiple seating areas and stunning Manhattan views. The two bedrooms in the sleeping wing across this great room are each king size, with views onto the Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Garden. The views within are equally charming: high end lighting fixtures from Visual Comfort throughout, with designer wallpapers from Dorothy Draper, Galbraith & Paul, Farrow & Ball, Phillip Jeffries, Scalamandre, and Sister Parish, and custom window treatments (all blackout in bedrooms) with fabrics by Quadrille and LuluDK, all add to the grace and functionality that convey with this classic home.
