35 Clinton Ave Unit UpperFloors/2Bedroom

This completely renovated 2 bedroom/2.5 bathroom has the feel of a well-appointed home. With features like 8" baseboards, wide casings, custom cabinetry, built-ins, special order doors and exposed brick this duplex combines modern-era living/layout and old world details. High ceilings, wide stairwells and generously sized rooms convey a sense of grandeur, comfort and livability all in one. Upon entering the duplex from the shared secure foyer you are welcomed into a entryway lined with exposed brick walls, an impressive stairway and a large bike/storage closet. Ascending the stairs en route to the duplex first floor is an additional half-height storage space on the midway landing. Upon arriving on the primary floor of the duplex you are greeted with a frosted panel door which leads into a deep rectangular office space anchored on the far end with an angled bay window. The office houses an integrated built-in storage space above the bay window nook. Beyond the natural light which floods into the room, two semi-flush fabric lined ceiling fixtures cascade light over the exposed brick wall. Continuing from the landing through the casing framed portal the sweeping mahogany floors bring you into the living room. Centered in the room is the original decorative fireplace and mantel wrapped around the exposed brick chimney and capped with a custom cornice. To the near end are two large windows encased in modding with 12" deep sills. This primary gathering room flows into the substantial kitchen through opposing coat/storage closets which allow for a modern open floor plan while still defining each space. The custom crafted kitchen area boasts deep 40" high upper cabinets, integrated book/display shelves, dedicated bread storage space, an over-sized cereal box storage drawer, lower cabinets with soft close drawers hidden behind custom doors, a built-in open appliance area and an enclosed multi-purpose storage cabinet. The kitchen is designed around a professional 36" six burner gas range/oven with complementary high-volume exhaust hood. Stainless steel cabinet hardware, light pendants, faucet and appliances complement the design. The dishwasher and garbage disposal ensure an easy clean-up while the mahogany eating bar, quartz carrera countertops, handmade tile backsplash, and exposed brick help to blend the kitchen in with other elements in the home. The elevated eating bar which wraps 3 sides of the 10' kitchen island hosts seating for up to 6. The hallway off the kitchen has a half bathroom, the mechanical closets and a rear door which provides access to the private terrace. The high-wall enclosed terrace is covered with river rock. Floating in the river rock is a deck area, perfect for dining, as well as a smaller deck pad designed for an outdoor gas grill. Returning to the stairwell the final flights of stairs lead to the uppermost floor which houses the bedrooms, en suite bathrooms, den and laundry facilities. The mahogany floor landing lends way to the carpeting which is found throughout the den and bedrooms. Entering into the den, which sits between the bedrooms, one immediately takes note of the vaulted tray ceiling. Within this den space are double outward swinging doors which conceal the full size washer and dryer along with a built-in storage unit. The furthest door in the den leads to the primary suite. This large bedroom can easily support a king size bed with flanking night stands. The two closets with built-in storage cubbies and ample hanging are placed to allow for easy placement of additional furniture items. From within the primary bedroom is direct access to the master bath. The master bath features a 4' single sink floating vanity with solid surface countertop and functional drawer spaces. Above the vanity is a custom medicine cabinet with flanking enclosed storage spaces and a centered mirror section. Additionally the bathroom contains a built-in shelved towel unit. Lastly this bathroom has a 3' x 6' walk-in shower with a niche. The second bedroom, also reached via the den, is framed by the dual queen size built-in bunk beds. This highly custom bunk bed unit has private in-bed storage with counters to serve the purpose of night stands. Within this unique unit are 4' coffin drawers and a desk area, both integrated components of the lower bunk. Even with the large bunk area, there remains space for additional furniture to fill out the room. Though on the smaller side, the closet has multiple hanging bars. The second bath is accessible from both the bedroom and alternatively from the landing via a frosted privacy door. This bathroom features a floating vanity with a single sink, a tiled backsplash above the solid surface countertop, a floating built-in utility bar above the faucet, a mirror and a modern sconce light. Kitty corner from the vanity and in front of the commode is a generously sized built-in cabinet with large spaces for storage at top and bottom and cubby storage in the middle section of the unit. The tiled tub/shower area has a drop-in tub with a paneled front side and a niche placed to be easily accessed whether bathing or showering.
