About 492 Westminster Rd

Nestled between charming Victorian houses on a street lined with towering Sycamore trees, is 492 Westminster Road, an enchanting 6-bedroom, 3-bathroom home, lovingly maintained by the same owners for the last 40 years. The inviting front porch welcomes you into a gracious entry foyer showcasing stunning architectural details that include the original stair, dramatic archways, and multi-patterned parquet floors. The spacious living room has windows on two walls that fill the space with natural light while providing serene views of green. The living room flows seamlessly into the bright formal dining room that is big enough for a table that seats eight or more. The lovely kitchen has generous counter space and cabinetry and an adjacent butlers pantry that is now a convenient laundry room. A door off the kitchen leads to a patio ideal for dining outdoors, with steps down to an enchanting backyard with a grassy expanse and peripheral plantings.. On the second floor are four bedrooms, including two large ones that easily accommodate king-sized beds, and two smaller bedrooms, one of which is currently used as an office with built-in desk and shelving above. There is also a full bath on this floor. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and another full bath with a charming clawfoot tub. The property boasts a single-car garage and a newly paved driveway, providing parking for up to three cars. The full basement, complete with a full bath, offers versatile space for a home office, recreation room, or storage. Located in close proximity to Cortelyou Road and Newkirk Plaza, and with easy access to the B & Q trains to Manhattan, this home combines tranquility with the convenience of nearby shopping and dining options.
