474 Sterling Place is a unique Brooklyn townhouse that exquisitely blends contemporary loft chic with timeless European farmhouse charm.
Enter this generously proportioned 22 foot-wide brick home through an inviting foyer featuring a large casement window with northern exposure. Natural light streams down from a stunning skylight thirteen feet above the polished floor. The expansive lower level is a soaring great room including an office area with full-height built-in shelving, fully vented open kitchen with antique country-style fixtures and stainless-steel appliances and generous space for entertaining and intimate dining. This level also includes a well-appointed half bath and generous storage/utility room with washer/dryer.
The upper floor is anchored by a cozy living room graced by light from three exposures. From this central space you can explore the primary bedroom and a smaller adjacent room suitable for a generous nursery, private office or sumptuous walk-in closet. The second bedroom offers access to an expansive outdoor space with the opportunity to create your dream deck or sunny rooftop garden. An elegantly designed European-style split bathroom completes this floor, epitomizing this home's fusion of modern minimalism with understated sophistication.

Another key feature of this home is a large accessory space accessed from the street. Studio space? Expand the interior footprint? Possibilities and potential await. An additional approximate 1,700SF FAR is available for future expansion.
