901 Saint Marks Ave is a unique landmarked brownstone mansion bathed in sunlight, rich in history and the perfect marriage of pre-war architectural details and modern finishes. Located on what was once known as Millionaire’s Row, this home sits across from Brower Park and The Brooklyn Children’s Museum in Crown Heights North, a historic landmark district. The home is set back from the property line to allow for a manicured garden and raised stone porch --the perfect place for morning coffee or evening cocktails as you look out over Saint Marks Ave.
Through the original wrought iron front door you’ll find an entry hall with the original built in mirror, three grand parlours with hand inlaid floors, french doors, ornate crown moldings, two fireplaces, corinthian columns, built-in bookcases, pocket doors, coffered ceilings, three and five foot wainscoting.
Continue on this first level beyond the parlours you can find a half bathroom, a king size bedroom (#1) with double exposures and windowed ensuite bathroom with rain shower. Further down the hall (and down a short flight) you’ll come to a small private garden and a two room king size bedroom (#2) suite with a traditional tub and shower bathroom.
On the second level, towards the front of the home, you have king size bedroom (#3) with bay windows, stone fireplace, and ensuite bathroom with walk-in rain shower. On the landing, tucked behind a secret door, you’ll find a full size stacked washer and dryer with steam feature.
Head towards the rear of the home for a formal dining room with original stained glass window, a full guest bathroom, a breakfast nook, and a chefs kitchen with stainless steel appliances and an abundance of cabinets. Off of the kitchen, through the back door, is a large rooftop terrace that overlooks neighboring gardens and Kingston Ave. The canopied pergola makes alfresco dining an option rain or shine.
On the third level you will find a home office and private rooftop terrace with views to the Freedom Tower. You also have a queen size bedroom (#4) and ensuite bathroom with skylight shower that will take your breath away. Down the hall is another skylight bathroom with a separate bathtub and shower.
Next door is a king size bedroom (#5) with double closets and bay windows overlooking Saint Marks Ave.
The owners prefer to rent this home furnished. It can also be rented unfurnished at $14,000 a month.
