    What's special

    A truly rare find: 265 Hicks Street is a 21-wide mint condition, single-family townhouse in prime Brooklyn Heights. This spacious, approximately 4,400 square foot, corner townhome recently underwent a gut renovation and has been transformed into a turnkey masterpiece. Serviced by an elevator on all floors, including the penthouse addition, this home epitomizes luxury in Brooklyns most desirable neighborhood. Originally constructed in the 19th century, this Italianate brownstone boasts a bay window with third exposure, flooding the home with natural light on all levels. Behind a completely restored, award-winning front faade, a grand stoop entry leads to an impressive arched doorway. With gracious ceiling heights, this luxurious abode features an open layout parlor floor with a formal sitting area, dining, and open chefs kitchen with immense storage and countertop space and top of the line appliances. A rear terrace off the oversized kitchen leads down to the 46-deep rear garden, a peaceful enclosure paved with bluestone and surrounded by lush planted greenery. The garden level is accessible via separate entrance beneath the stoop and is outfitted with a secondary kitchen, living room, full bath, and guest bedroom suite. A beautifully restored stairwell and bannister lead from the parlor to the third floor. This level offers a unique layout, with front and rear bedrooms, both with en suite baths, and an informal second living room abutting the third exposure. The full-floor master suite features an en suite master bath and oversized walk-in closet, as well as a spacious sitting room and office. The breathtaking penthouse floor addition presents an unmatched space for entertaining. This light-filled space features a large roof terrace and offers panoramic views of Brooklyn and New York Harbor. Set on a beautiful tree-lined block in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, only steps from Brooklyn Bridge Park and the bustling retail along Montague Street, Atlantic Avenue, and Court Street, 265 Hicks Street offers the rare opportunity for a discerning purchaser to own a completely renovated piece of New York Citys first historic district.
