An historic brownstone waiting to be reawakened !

Description

An historic brownstone waiting to be reawakened! Charming and rich with character, 635 MacDonough Street is a dream opportunity for restoration enthusiasts. Built in 1890 by architects Amzi and Henry Hill, this solid Neo-Grec, Romanesque Revival two-family home has been lovingly held by one family for more than half a century. With its original details largely intact, it offers a canvas ripe for restoration. The home whispers of its past through original period details, including five mantels with original Majolica tilework, plaster ceiling moldings and medallions, pocket and French doors, wood moldings, shutters, waist-high wainscoting, tin ceilings, and more. The gracious double parlor has high ceilings and is bathed in natural light with windows facing both south and north, offering views of quaint MacDonough Street in front and lush raised vegetable beds in back. The former owner was an avid gardener, and the love he poured into his garden is felt throughout this special home. Nestled on a tree-lined block in Stuyvesant East and surrounded by brownstones, 635 MacDonough Street is minutes from the A/C/J trains. Just a stone’s throw from the best of Bedford-Stuyvesant, you’ll enjoy nearby Saratoga Park and restaurant favorites like Sonora, Chez Oskar, L’Antagoniste, Nana Ramen, Peaches, and more.
