321 Clinton Ave

Welcome to this extraordinarily rare opportunity to reside in one of the most fashionably ornate landmark mansions in all of New York City. When oil baron Charles Pratt decided to start his collection of family homes on Clinton Avenue in the early 1870's, he began a real estate rush that soon transformed this once suburban block of modest homes into one of Brooklyn's most architecturally prominent neighborhoods. Built in the year 1870, 321 Clinton Avenue is a structure defined by its rich history and grandiose presence. With an impressively striking facade, this mansion estate touts a full 50 feet of frontage, graciously flanked by a beautifully landscaped front garden and common courtyard. Enter your masterfully restored, intricately redesigned and thoughtfully renovated home on the parlor level to be greeted by impeccably preserved original 19th Century detailing sprawled across every surface, including an enormous pier mirror standing over 10 feet tall, intricately carved wood doors and windows, refinished oak flooring and plaster ceiling medallions and moldings. The fully renovated kitchen is truly a chef’s dream with its sophisticated aesthetic, touting a LG signature double oven, Miele Dishwasher and Liebherr refrigerator to complement crisp marble countertops and double height black custom cabinetry. Proceed to the ground level and meander into your very own private garden, a whimsical playground presenting an abundance of blue sky, an accentuating backdrop to panoramic views across brownstone mansions dating well into the 19th century. The primary bedroom is located at the ground level of the home and is adjacent to the well-appointed bathroom featuring a brand new vanity and high-pressure shower. Your easily converted second bedroom/home office will quickly accommodate your full-sized or Murphy bed while leaving ample space for a work-from-home nook. Your new home is ideally situated on a beautiful tree lined block of impressive townhomes. Additional features of the building include storage, free laundry and an on-call superintendent. Location could not be better being just a quick jaunt from all that Clinton Hill and Fort Greene have to offer. The residence itself is currently being used as a one-bedroom plus home office and may be easily converted to a fully functional two-bedroom. Available fully or partially furnished, or entirely unfurnished.
