Description:
Once the site of a one-story garage built in the 1900s, the property was transformed by SKAPC into a four-story, single-family townhouse, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, in Brooklyn’s sought-after central Williamsburg neighborhood. At only 16.5-feet wide, the property’s unique dimensions made this project particularly challenging. The ground-up construction features a design reflective of the original structure’s façade while boasting a modern interior and rear, including a back stairwell with oversized windows that distribute light throughout each level. The floor plan includes a large contemporary kitchen leading to an outdoor patio for entertaining; an expansive living and dining area; a study overlooking Manhattan; new rooftop development; and a one-car garage. Interior finishes are contemporary yet classic. SKAPC’s architectural services included pre-design and design work, documentation, construction services and approvals.
