Ipinapakilala ang 859 St. Marks Avenue — isang tunay na maharlikang mansyon na gawa sa limestone na nakaharap sa timog, na may limang palapag, na nakatayo sa isa sa mga pinaka-mahahalagang lansangan sa Crown Heights North Historic District. Diretsong nakaharap sa Brooklyn Children’s Museum at Brower Park, ang pambihirang blokeng ito ay isang tanyag na pagtatanghal ng arkitekturang nagmula sa pagbabagong siglo ng mga pangarap na taga-disenyo na humubog sa pamana ng tirahan ng Brooklyn—isang tunay na handog para sa mata.

Itinayo noong 1905 at may lapad na 25 talampakan, ang legal na tirahan na ito para sa dalawang pamilya na sumasaklaw sa 6,900 square feet ay maingat na na-update habang iginagalang ang mga pinaka-eksquisite na orihinal na detalye kabilang ang dramatikong orihinal na hagdang-hagdang bakal, stained glass na bintana, mayamang mahogany na wainscoting, coffered ceiling, mga pocket door at walong orihinal na mantel ng apoy—bawat elemento ay nagsasalaysay ng kwento ng sining na bihira nang matagpuan ngayon.

Ang bahay ay kasalukuyang nakakonfigure bilang dalawang pambihirang tirahan, na nag-aalok ng magigandang espasyo, ilaw at walang katapusang mga posibilidad. Ang malaking yunit ng may-ari ay sumasaklaw sa apat na buong palapag—Garden hanggang Fourth—at nagtatampok ng higit sa anim na silid-tulugan, anim at kalahating banyo, at maraming maginhawang living at entertaining na espasyo. Isang magandang terasa sa ikaapat na palapag ang nagbibigay ng tanawin ng bukas na langit, habang ang kaakit-akit na likurang hardin ay nagtatampok ng malawak na bluestone patio sa ilalim ng Ipe na pergola, itinaas na mga gulay na kama, at isang pambihirang koleksyon ng mga nakakaing tanim at puno ng prutas kabilang ang Concord grapes, raspberry canes, rhubarb, red currants, Alpine strawberries, mga puno ng peach at apricot, at marami pang iba.

Ang ikalimang palapag ay isang kaakit-akit na apartment na may higit sa dalawang silid-tulugan at dalawang banyo—perpekto para sa kita, mga bisita, o pinalawig na pamilya.

Parehong yunit ay nilagyan ng in-unit na washer/dryer, 5 zone ng heating at central air conditioning, CAT6 wiring sa buong bahay, at fiber-optic (FiOS) connectivity sa cellar. Isang 8kW high-efficiency solar panel system ang nagbibigay ng makabuluhang pagtitipid sa enerhiya. Ang buong footprint na basement, na may humigit-kumulang 7-talampakang kisame, ay nag-aalok ng sapat na imbakan at karagdagang utility space.

Perpektong naka-situate sa puso ng Crown Heights North Historic District, ang pambihirang tahanang ito ay ilang hakbang mula sa mga paboritong destinasyon sa kapitbahayan kabilang ang Chavela’s, Muse Thai, Gertrudes, Cent’Anni, at marami pang iba. Ang mga linya ng subway A, C, at 3 ay ilang minutong biyahe lamang, na nag-aalok ng madaling access sa buong Brooklyn at papuntang Manhattan.
