This Williamsburg townhouse, at 512 Lorimer Street, has been given a thoughtful makeover that’s thoroughly luxe and modern. “Handcrafted” and “bespoke,” the listing calls the house, which was overhauled by the architecture firm Asa Barak Studio.

They’ve tricked it out with some interesting high-end finishes, from the modern, gray exterior to the concrete window seat and fireplace in the living room to the polished-brass backsplash and center island in the kitchen and the teak double sink in the master bath.

The house offers an owner’s duplex over a garden level rental, with 1 bedroom and an office in the latter.

The duplex’s lower floor has a front dining room and rear living room divided by an open kitchen with a Wolf range, built-in panel-doored fridge and the aforementioned center island. There’s a wall of plate glass in the rear, and a glass door leading out to a terrace; there’s a walled patio paved in bluestone below.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a master with a dressing room an en suite bath with a “wet room” and walls tiled with stone slabs; there’s also a second full bath and a laundry room.

The house — two blocks from the Lorimer L stop and near many a bar, restaurant and coffee spot — is showing this Sunday at an open house, from noon to 1 p.m.

Listed by Compass brokers Lior Barak and Christine Blackburn, it’s asking $3.15 million. It went for well under half that ($1.35 million) in June of 2015, but of course that was pre-makeover. Like the look of it?
