Welcome to 3026 Chatham St in Port Richmond. This beautiful home is entirely custom, built out by the previous owner and master carpenter during their time living there. Complete with all the original interior wood, oak doors, built in cabinets, open shelves, skylights, modern finishes, pocket doors and South facing windows flooding the home with natural light. The home was featured in Design Sponge in 2016 after renovations were complete.
This beautiful carriage house (and two garage spaces) was built in 1914, in it's past life was once an upholstery shop and machine shop with rumors of the space being used as a speakeasy during Prohibition! Bought as a shell by the current owners who turned it into a minimalists oasis in the heart of Port Richmond.
Enter through the front door to the landing that leads to the open first floor renovated 2021 and outfitted with cement floor, full bathroom, kitchenette and clerestory windows running the length of the space. In this bright, open and tall space there is room to do any number of things with, turn it into a studio, art gallery, wood shop, garage/mechanic shop for your vehicles/bikes/motorcycles, or simply use it to host friends.
Walk up the custom Fir stairs to the main living area and be prepared to be stunned! Gorgeous natural wood stain on everything, sand blasted beams showing the pristine condition of the exposed rafters, south and east facing windows and skylights that let light pour into the space. An open concept living/dining/kitchen area with custom kitchen, concrete countertops, brand new oven, open oak shelves and built ins for storage. The pine floors have been meticulously maintained and are absolutely gorgeous. Living room has two doors, one opens to a balcony, the other opens to the roof space, perfect for a deck with city views!
Walk down the hall way to access the bedrooms with full size closets and custom bathroom complete with pocket doors, exposed beams, natural light and high ceilings. Bathroom has stall shower and washer/dryer. Back bedroom has a custom closet for easy organizing.
To the south of the house you will find two garages at roughly 16Lx16Wx8H perfect for parking cars, bikes, motorcycles, equipment, storage, materials etc.
The property is zoned residential but with the top and bottom floor fitted out with separate gas and electric meters it is a great candidate for rezoning as either two apartments or a commercial space on the 1st floor. Close to parks and easy access to the highway, this block has a tight knit sense of community with block parties and generational history in the neighborhood.
