Originally built in 1899, 681 Decatur Street has been masterfully reinvented into a modern, luxury two-family townhouse while preserving its historic charm. This 20-foot-wide home offers five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two powder rooms, a parlor deck, an expansive garden, and finished roof access-creating multiple private outdoor spaces rarely found in the neighborhood.
 
The owner's three-bedroom duplex with finished cellar opens to a gracious foyer and a dramatic 45-foot parlor level with 10-foot ceilings, white oak floors, abundant natural light, and a rare wood-burning fireplace. The open living/dining area flows into a stunning chef's kitchen with a four-seat island, custom cabinetry, marble countertops, Wolf appliances, a dual-zone wine fridge, and floor-to-ceiling glass leading to the deck and garden. Modern conveniences include in-ceiling Bluetooth speakers, multi-zone heating/cooling, and a state-of-the-art security system.
 
Upstairs are three bedrooms and two full baths, including a serene south-facing primary suite overlooking the garden. The primary features custom wall built-in closets and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with marble flooring and imported Italian tile, double vanity, spa shower, and a freestanding soaking tub. A vented washer/dryer completes this level.
 
The finished basement offers a powder room and flexible space ideal for a gym, studio, or recreation room.
 
The home also boasts finished roof access, outfitted with water, lighting, and electric-perfect for gardening, entertaining, or stargazing at night.
