162 Bergen St

This absolutely stunning 22 foot wide Boerum Hill townhouse was gut-renovated in 2009 and offers four floors of stylishly renovated space including five bedrooms, three and a half baths, brand new mechanical systems, gorgeous front and rear gardens and a finished basement. This home also has the ultimate modern amenity, an elevator! Completely renovated from top to bottom, there are beautifully restored plaster work moldings, original salvaged wide plank floors, and new windows and ironwork throughout. All of the mechanicals were removed and replaced with the latest in plumbing, heating and electrical systems, including radiant heated bathrooms and multi-zone central air conditioning. The gracious parlor floor has a powder room, two stunning marble mantles, and the perfect kitchen for entertaining, with custom built cherry cabinetry and practically impervious soapstone counter tops. The third floor master bedroom suite has a unique double height sitting area, and a modern bathroom opens to a custom designed, windowed dressing room. There is an additional bedroom on this floor. On the 4th floor two large bedrooms have access to a spacious modern bathroom. Ride the elevator down to the impeccably clean basement with brand new concrete floor and laundry room, and extra storage areas. The garden apartment has also been completely renovated with exposed beams, new kitchen, and modern glass doors out to the garden. With both elevator and stair access from the upper triplex the garden level is easily incorporated into the home for use as a single family residence. The south facing, landscaped garden has two distinct seating areas and an expert design intended for minimal maintenance. This gorgeous home is on one of Boerum Hills loveliest blocks, with easy access to all major subway lines, and all of the incredible shopping, dining and nightlife on Smith Street, Atlantic Avenue and the surrounding Brownstone Brooklyn neighborhoods.
