SIGNED CONTRACT. Stunning, South-Facing 1 Bedroom Duplex with Terrace in the P.C. Cornell Mansion Pin-drop quiet and awash in sunlight, this very special, top-floor one bedroom one bath is a rare find in historic Brooklyn Heights. Located on the third floor (2 flights plus the stoop) of a former mansion, the lower level of the duplex features a spacious south-facing living room with a dining nook, a brick wood-burning fireplace and tall French doors leading out to a spectacular private terrace overlooking the gardens. The home has central air conditioning on both the upper and lower levels. The renovated kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite countertops and all stainless appliances including a Liebherr refrigerator. The renovated bathroom, with a chic marble console sink and a built-in linen closet, is finished in bright white subway tile with a gorgeous glass tile floor adding a splash of color. An elegant staircase leads to the upper level of the home which consists of a large mezzanine bedroom with 8.5 foot ceilings that is open to the living room below. The bedroom features a magnificent skylight with automated windows and automated shades, painted white brick walls and over 13 linear feet of customized closet space. Additional features of the home include a large coat/utility closet and recessed lighting on the lower level, hardwood floors throughout and a 315 cubic foot storage space in the basement (7'-6 x 6' x 7'). Built in the 1830's as a 36-foot wide mansion for P.C. Cornell and noted for its magnificent center staircase with stained-glass skylight, 108 Pierrepont Street is now a beautifully-maintained 10-unit cooperative in the historic section of Brooklyn Heights. This self-managed, non-elevator building with a part-time Super is pet-friendly, allows 80% financing and permits gifting and parental co-purchasing on a case-by-case basis. The building has allowed the installation of washer/dryers in individual units subject to Board Approval. Subletting and pied-a-terres are not permitted. Laundry and additional storage are located in the basement. The flip tax is paid by the buyer in this cooperative (1 % of the first $300k, 1/2 % of any amount above that).
