Description

ONE SINGULAR SENSATION. 16 Sidney Place is located in the most serene part of Brooklyn Heights- on a charming, quiet street street that is one direction and only two blocks long. This home is a pristinely renovated, light filled, 22 feet wide, five story, six bedroom, four and a half bath, one family townhouse with elevator, offering historical views with contemporary conveniences and international style. Entering on the parlor level, you are greeted with 12 foot ceilings and buffed cement floors that offer radiant heat, running the length of this floor's deep footprint. The living room affords over sized custom, wooden Marvin windows, a gas fireplace and passage to the open dining room. To the left are two options to ascend through the home- a custom stainless steel, glass, and walnut cantilevered staircase and the centrally located elevator. The dining room, comfortably seating eight, empties to the sun-kissed kitchen with Valcucine cabinetry, high end appliances and floor to ceiling Bliss Noram narrow-sightline steel windows that yield backyard breezes and doors that give way to the deck, dining patio with grill, open air cabana with water wall and an elegantly planted, low maintenance yard. A smartly hidden powder room and entry closet finish off the parlor floor. Next is the full floor master suite. The master bedroom has custom leather wall built-in cabinetry, a vanity table and en suite bathroom featuring dual sinks, a freestanding soaking tub and a walk-in steam shower with a floating white stone bench. A walk-through closet connects the third floor den that features a gas fireplace, small home office and a large back terrace. The fourth floor has two equally large front and back bedrooms, each with adjacent studies. They are tied together with a shared bath with dual sinks, dual toilets, a soaking tub and rain shower. The fifth floor has atelier skylights that illuminate the front art studio. Tucked in the back is a guest room, graciously equipped with a walk-in closet and a full bath with shower. The garden floor, with open air access to the dining room, has a media room with home theater system, stainless steel coffee bar, and an oak wall with recessed TV and hidden storage. Adjacent is access to the yard and a glass wrapped home office with a large sliding glass door system. Finishing off this floor is a laundry room and front bedroom with full bath. The home's cellar holds the wine room, home gym, state of the art mechanicals and a Crestron full home automation system. The front yard includes new bluestone paving and a discrete trash enclosure topped by a planting bed. Custom planter boxes adorn the parlor windows. Deftly designed by Michael Ingui of Baxt Ingui Architects, P.C. Brilliantly constructed by Interior Alterations.
