A Rare Brownstone Masterpiece in the Heart of Brooklyn
This landmark three-level brownstone home seamlessly blends historic grandeur with modern luxury in one of Brooklyn's most coveted neighborhoods.
Upon entering the grand parlor, you are immediately captivated by soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and exquisite period details. A striking carved mirror and marble mantle complement the meticulously restored moldings, while arched doorways with etched glass pocket doors and chevron-patterned rift and quartered white oak floors exude timeless elegance. The rear parlor, framed by a second carved mantle fireplace and stunning leaded stained-glass windows, offers serene views of the lush surroundings. A discreetly positioned full bath on this level ensures both convenience and privacy.
The expansive, light-filled kitchen is a chef's dream, outfitted with top-tier appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and vertical wine storage, a Cove dishwasher, a Wolf integrated coffee system and microwave, and a 48-inch Ilve Majestic range with a custom hood. Grohe fixtures grace the dual sinks, while abundant storage ensures a seamless culinary experience.
On the lower level, three en-suite bedrooms provide a tranquil retreat, offering privacy and access to a secluded flagstone patio through a private entrance.
The lowest level presents a wealth of possibilities, featuring additional living space, an oversized wine cellar, a dedicated laundry room, and ample room for fitness or recreation.
This exceptional residence is a testament to timeless design and modern sophistication-an opportunity not to be missed.
*Offering plan is being amended to reflect that this apartment is a 4 bed 4.5 bath.
