One flight up and you find the epitome of pre-war townhouse living, featuring a large private outdoor deck, wood burning fireplace, hardwood floors, high-ceilings, fully vented in-unit laundry, split A/C units in every room and an abundance of large windows throughout. This classic, yet totally renovated and designed residence, truly exemplifies the best of Brooklyn Heights living. As you enter the apartment you are welcomed into a large living and dining area, white washed exposed brick fireplace and large windows flood the apartment with light. Adjacent to the living room is a gourmet kitchen featuring a Sub-zero refrigerator, Miele range and oven, premium stainless steel countertops and custom cabinets. Accessible from the living room is a large +/- 400sq/ft private terrace perfect for gardening, entertaining and relaxing. The primary bedroom is flooded with light through two large windows that overlook stunning tree-lined Garden Place. Multiple customized closets, expertly outfitted, line the walls of this spacious bedroom. The second bedroom, currently configured as a home office with custom built in desks, could easily convert to a functional second bedroom. The renovated bathroom features custom tile work, clever storage solutions, large soaking tub/shower and a fully vented Miele Washer and Dryer. 56 Garden Place is a quintessential landmarked Brownstone located on the corner of a Garden Place and State Street in Brooklyn Heights.
