Description

This exquisite five-story, three-family Cobble Hill brownstone on arguably the most desirable block in Cobble Hill has undergone a thoughtful restoration that incorporates the perfect blend of modern sophistication including ductless & central air conditioning, with lovely original details including all the original fireplace mantles, tin ceilings, solid wood doors, floors and hardware. Although this home's CO is currently for a 4-family, one could convert it to a single family, or keep the current 3-family configuration which is a double duplex and a floor through apartment. The lower garden and parlor duplex unit of this lovely brownstone has soaring 11?5? ceilings and a fantastic open eat-in-kitchen with stainless steel appliances, Quartz counters, open shelving and beautiful wainscoting. The lower duplex layout features two spacious bedrooms, two home offices, two full windowed bathrooms and a vented laundry room which leads to an extra-large private garden on a 109ft lot! Above the parlor floor is a one-bedroom floor-through with a home office, washer/dryer and a windowed bathroom. The upper duplex unit is a three bedroom, one and a half bathroom with a spacious pass-through kitchen, washer/dryer and a private terrace with Manhattan skyline views. All bathrooms and kitchens have been tastefully renovated and have dishwashers.


Nestled on the coveted and tree-lined Strong Place, an incredibly desirable one-block street, your new home is in the middle of Cobble Hill, one of the quaintest neighborhoods in Brooklyn. World class shopping and dining (Brooklyn Fare, Trader Joes, Sahadis), schools, and culture (Brooklyn Bridge Park, Barclays Center, BAM) are at your fingertips. Whether you are relocating to the neighborhood or you are looking to enjoy part of the home and live comfortably while your renters help pay your mortgage, this home is singular in many ways!
