324 Caton Ave

Heaven awaits at the corner of E. 4th St. Perched at the crossroads of Windsor Terrace and Kensington, on a coveted, bucolic block, this beautiful, CORNER single family home with 3+ bedrooms and a TWO CAR GARAGE will delight you. From its lovely facade and large front porch to its spacious backyard, prepare to swoon. Enter to find a sweet vestibule with a bench and the foyer.  A spacious living room provides ample room to relax, entertain, and just be. It melds the beauty of today with that of yesteryear - which is prevalent in the wainscotting, the beautiful original staircase, the french pocket doors, parquet floors and detail moldings. The windowed, formal dining room is expansive in size and has extensive built-ins - a large row of bookcases (easy to use as a china cabinet) as well as a large desk. This room leads into the show kitchen! Kept completely intact, this is a cool, retro 1950's kitchen, complete with wall oven and range. There is a door leading to the backyard and yes, to the garages - where you can fit two cars and also put one on the street if need be. Walk up the stairs to find a beautiful stained glass skylight.The top floor boasts three bedrooms, each spacious. The ensuite primary bedroom has a walk-in closet with mirrored pocket doors and two exposures - one has 3  bay windows. It easily accommodates a king size bed and more. The walk-in closet (set up as a his/hers space) had been a 4th bedroom (see one alternate floorplan). and could be a 4th bedroom again. Or use half of it as an office - see virtual staged image. The ensuite marble bath has been renovated and boasts marble tiling and a spa shower. The other two bedrooms are also spacious and each have custom built-ins - one has a full wall of built-in closets/shelves and two exposures. The main bath on this level is renovated and has marble tiling, with a second skylight.  The garden level has a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, plentiful cabinetry and a large island that seats four easily. It features a second living room/recreation room and another full, marble bathroom. It also has a large laundry room, and there is extensive storage. The mechanicals and bones of the home are in good shape, the electric and plumbing have been updated, as have the windows and there are cityquiet windows at the front of the house.  This home (alternate address of 194 E. 4th St) is superbly located on what neighborhood locals lovingly call “Halloween Block”. It’s a coveted location, and is near to all – shopping and eateries on Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue, including Hamilton’s, Thai Farm Kitchen, Steeplechase Cafe; it’s down the block from the Community Garden on E. 4th St., around the corner from the Windsor Terrace Library, 2.5 blocks blocks to the Greenwood Playground, and a short walk to Prospect Park. This is a wonderful home. Come take a look – you’ll want to make it your own.
