Description

With great bones, an ideal location, and beautifully maintained, the home retains all of its best details. The current owner conducted an extensive facade and cornice restoration in 2022.
Currently configured as a four unit building with owner's 3 bedroom, 2 bath garden/parlor duplex and 3 spacious and beautifully renovated 2 bedroom, 1 bath rental units (one with large terrace). With the building's gracious 25' width you have the benefit of larger rooms, better flow and terrific light throughout.

There are two fireplaces with marble mantles, the living room fireplace is gas-burning. At the rear of this floor is the renovated kitchen with butler's pantry adjacent to a multi-purpose room, perfect for either a breakfast area, den or office. A small balcony off this room leads down to the beautifully landscaped deep garden.
The lower level of the duplex has a large primary bedroom with a gas fireplace, an en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. There are two additional bedrooms looking onto the back garden as well as a second full bath and a spacious central den/hang out area separating the primary from the other bedrooms.
Conveniently located in central Brooklyn Heights just a short distance from restaurants, shopping, transportation hub as well as the Brooklyn Heights Promenade and the incredible Brooklyn Bridge Park, this wonderful townhouse lends itself to the owner interested in a perfect home with income or reconfiguration into a dramatic Brooklyn Heights mansion.
