About this Property
Clinton Hill can claim some of the most elegant brownstones in Brooklyn. This four-story townhouse with its beautifully articulated facade -- triple-arched windows, nobly carved columns and intricate brickwork -- is just one of those. Inside are parquet floors, picture moldings, decorative plasterwork and intricate woodwork. These are the architectural treasures typical of 19th-century homes that simply don't exist in new construction. The long entry hallway, with it's raised-panel wainscoting, leads you to the front parlor, appointed with carved mantel, mirrored over-mantel and tiled hearth. The middle gallery, also clad in wainscoting, is a veritable museum of fine woodwork: turned balusters, carved newel posts and pocket doors. The rear living room has a carved marble fireplace with slate hearth. Sliding doors open onto a terrace, and a staircase leads to a private garden with a concentric-brick patio. The second floor has a sunny front dining room with yet another wood mantel (a tiled hearth here, too); center kitchen, which has retained some of its original cabinetry, drawers and hardware; and a rear-facing bedroom. The full bath on this floor is tiled in crisp black and white and features a period steel casement window. The top floor hosts the light-strewn spacious primary bedroom, large enough for a home office or reading nook; its triple arched windows frame leafy Saint James Place. There's another full bath down the hall, this one in classic blue tiling, as well as an additional nursery or study. The garden apartment can serve as a rental or a separate suite, and has its own entrance and access to the backyard. The cellar, with good ceiling height, provides ample storage and a work/craft area. This section of Clinton Hill offers lots of choices, with both venerable and new businesses, from Fine Care Pharmacy to the delicious offerings at Sisters, Brooklyn Burro and Otway restaurants to the indulgences of The Good Batch Bakery. And your grocery needs will be met at the newly renovated Key Food, all right around the corner on Fulton Street, as are the A/C train station and B25 & B26 buses. Be the next owner to preserve this legacy of craftsmanship.
