The duplex is the joined upper two floors of our two-family home.

to the garden and patio.
The upper floor has the master bedroom, sleeping two, in a queen sized bed facing the beautiful and historic facade of Saint Cyril's church right across the street. On Saturday evenings and Sunday mornings choir music can be faintly heard, as well as the occasional wedding and confirmation ceremonies that take place there.
The central space upstairs is a studio and music room with a colorful guitar collection and huge
fixed skylight which drenches the upper level with sunlight. Adjacent to this room is the rear studio with full size sofabed (sleeping two) overlooking the rear garden, a quiet and serene space. Also facing the rear garden is the master bathroom with a large walk-in shower and hand-cranked skylight.

Our home is very much a reflection of the neighborhood itself. Worn-in but clean, eclectic, comfortable, tasteful, and right in the middle of everything NYC and Brooklyn has to offer. No pets please.
