Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to occupy a magnificent full-floor apartment with its very own PARKING SPACE in a gracious mansion at the corner of Clinton and Amity Streets in prime Cobble Hill. A stunning example of the Greek Revival architectural movement, this freestanding corner townhouse was originally built in 1845 by Abraham Degraw. The addition of Romanesque Revival and Neo-Flemish flourishes in 1891 include rarely-seen stepped gables on the roof, in addition to a distinctive turret that has been transformed into a shared outdoor space for this apartment and two others, and offers panoramic views of the borough all the way to the water. Enjoy a front row seat to the best views in the borough. The unique corner location and neighboring gardens of this 25' wide home ensure enchanting views that transport you out of the city and into the English countryside. The gated outdoor parking space is located behind a quaint brick wall, in the adjacent lot, for everyday ease.

Worth the two-flight walk-up, you will enter into a light-flooded approx. 1450 SF 3 bed, 1 bath (ability to add a 2^nd bath) home with lush treetop and skyline views from every window, and perfectly proportioned rooms with wonderful pre-war details. Spanning the entire width of the apartment is a large west-facing living room with three exposures. A formal dining area flanked by the original graceful archways on the south-side of this room offers a charming bay-window complete with a window seat. The living room itself is the epitome of elegance and includes an oversized wood-burning fireplace with the original sky-blue terracotta tiles, nail-head wood floors, crown moldings, plantation shutters, and of course, oversized windows everywhere you turn. Step into the center of the apartment where a windowed eat-in-kitchen sits adjacent to the living room and has been transformed into a chef's delight and includes white Shaker-style cabinetry, quartz countertops, undermount sink, GE dishwasher, and induction range. A custom-built sideboard includes cookbook storage, an additional pantry, and open shelving. Across the hallway from the kitchen is a gas vented washer and dryer.

Head towards the back where three bedrooms await. The first is sizable with great closets and overlooks Amity street. Encompassing the entire back width of the building is a Primary suite of such epic proportions that you need to see it in person to believe it. Bordered on the south side by the original oversized arched window, you get a scenic birds-eye view into the private gardens running along Clinton Street. There are also east and north facing windows facing picturesque Amity street. A decorative fireplace with a wood mantle and yellow terracotta tiles decorates the room on the north side, while walls of built-in bookshelves provide ample storage and work space on the south side. This room is large-enough to multi-task and easily accommodates a king-sized bed, and extra space for a home office. A large windowed walk-in closet greets you at the entrance to this bedroom, or turn this into a second bathroom should you so desire. There is a third and smaller bedroom off the primary that makes a perfect light-filled nursery or office. Awash in light and period detail, this is a special home with no equal on one of the most convenient blocks in the borough. Enjoy Cobble Hill and Brooklyn Bridge Parks, Court Street and Atlantic Avenue amenities, Borough Hall subways, public and private schools, and of course, your very own gated PARKING SPACE and shared roofdeck. The building is pet friendly for quiet dogs. Subletting is only allowed to individuals that know the apartment owner, and only for seasonal periods. The building prefers assessments rather than keeping a large reserve fund. The installation of AC will be considered. This is a self-managed building with shared garbage duties. Shoveling and sidewalk cleanup is handled by a caretaker employed by the coop.
