Top-Floor 2-Bedroom Condo with Private Roof Rights in a Landmarked Brooklyn Heights Mansion.
Welcome to Unit 12, a beautifully renovated two-bedroom condo perched on the top floor of a former Remsen Street mansion. This turn-key home blends thoughtful modern updates with the historic 19th-century character of its setting. Wide-plank hardwood floors, high ceilings, exposed brick, and oversized south-facing windows fill the space with natural light, while peaceful views overlook the historic carriage houses of Hunts Lane.
The open eat-in kitchen is built for everyday living and entertaining alike, featuring quartz countertops, an upgraded induction range, stainless steel appliances, a subway tile backsplash, and abundant extra-tall Shaker cabinetry. A smart split floor-plan places the primary and second bedrooms on opposite sides of the home for maximum privacy. The bathroom offers a new vanity, custom tile-work, and generous storage. Additional comforts include ductless A/C, an in-unit washer/dryer, and custom closets in both bedrooms and the laundry area.
The home sits within a landmarked, 31-foot-wide Italianate brownstone that has been meticulously maintained throughout. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, the building offers the rare combination of grand historic architecture and a true sense of home. Purchase of Unit 12 also includes roof rights, with the option to build out a private outdoor space subject to condo board approval.
Located in one of Brooklyn's most coveted neighborhoods, this home puts the best of the borough at your doorstep. You're around the corner from the Court St station (R train) and just a block from Borough Hall (2, 3, 4, 5) and Jay St (A, C, F)—an easy commute in any direction. The Brooklyn Heights Promenade is only two blocks away, with countless restaurants, cafés, and shops surrounding you on every side.
Sorry, no dogs allowed here (ESA and Service animals welcomed).
Please note, this is a 4th floor walk-up.
