Property Description
This special, historic 5-story townhouse has been lovingly cared for by the same family over the past four decades. It is now ready for a new family to cherish it. The home is used as an owner's 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath, upper quadruplex and a first floor, floorthrough rental apartment.
In the owner's upper 4-stories, they use the lower two floors for gathering & entertaining spaces. With its center staircase, all but one room in the owner's 4-story unit spans the full width of the building, creating well-proportioned rooms throughout and great light. Its lower two levels are especially inviting. A charming front den, just off of the parlor entryway, has a wood burning fireplace tucked in to a vintage hearth, a large rear dining room with steps to a deck and a half bath. The floor above has an eat in kitchen, living room, laundry room and a wall of built in bookcases.
The upper two floors, in the owner's quadruplex, have 3 large bedrooms, plus a 2-room bedroom suite in the rear of the top floor. There is a full bathroom on each of the top two floors. The first level of the home has its own private entrance. It is used as 1-bedroom rental. Its bathroom was recently renovated, the kitchen was recently updated too and there is a new washer/dryer in that unit. A cellar houses the home's mechanicals and can be used for storage. It is accessible from the main center stair.
139A South Oxford Street has a deep 120' lot with three wonderful outdoor spaces. There is a deck off of the rear parlor level with steps down to a lushly planted garden and patio areas. These are lovely spots to entertain or BBQ. Topping off this home is a roof deck with extraordinary views.
There is tremendous original detail throughout the home, including front bay windows, a grand, original center staircase, pretty plasterwork, lovely wood trim and oak flooring. The home is well situated on a block that features a beautiful assortment of impressive Victorian architecture. It is a quiet spot in the heart of Fort Greene, where culture, cafes and a wonderful sense of community abounds.
There is a park on the block with 2-tennis courts and a playground. Beloved local shops like Greenlight Books and Yu Housewares are nearby. The Brooklyn Academy of Music is one of multiple theaters and arts institutions that are just a few blocks away. There are great shopping options nearby as well, including, a large weekly farmer's market in Fort Greene Park, Green Grape Grocers and a Whole Foods Market too. This location is ultra-convenient. It offers a quick commute to Manhattan with its 11 nearby subway trains. It is just blocks away from a LIRR station that can zip you to the JFK monorail or out to Long Island's beach towns nearby as well. I invite you to come see this wonderful home in person and explore the neighborhood's many treasures.
