the garden duplex at 652 lafayette avenue has all of the features necessary for 21st century living: keyless private entry, built-in bluetooth sound system and wall-mounted ac/heating.  Simultaneously, it maintains classic brooklyn charm via a brownstone exterior, exposed brick interior and shimmering plank flooring throughout.
