A listing has just gone up for one of the three townhouses created out of the landmarked 1902 Dudley Memorial medical building on Amity Street in Cobble Hill. The conversion has been in the works since 2007, and the townhouse at 118 Amity Street is asking $7,795,000.

That princely sum will get you a vertical slice of the French Renaissance palace-style building on its own tax lot, a side yard, and more than 6,000 square feet of interior space. There are five bedrooms, a wine cellar, a roof terrace with a hot tub, and lots of other high end features.

In 2012, Brown Harris Stevens put up a listing for a townhouse in the building with the price of $3,850,000 and the address of 355 Henry. We published the renderings for that sale and they look quite different. As far as we know, it is not in contract.

But the timing of this sale may be unfortunate — will the new owners be able to enjoy the hot tub and other amenities while development proceeds on the opposite corner at Long Island College Hospital?

  1. Where are they getting 6,221sf from? From the floorplans on streeteasy, the building looks to be about 30’x40′, three stories, plus a below-grade cellar, and a 9’x9′ wine (sub-)cellar below that. Ignoring the space lost due to the irregular shape of the building, that’s maybe 3600sf of above-ground space, and 1300sf below. Is there another story that I missed? Are they counting the roof deck as floor area?
