Description

IN CONTRACT Introducing 1 Sidney Place, one of the most extraordinary residences to enter the New York City market this year. Beautifully renovated and reimagined from top to bottom, this one-of-a-kind historic home offers five bedrooms, expansive living and entertaining spaces, three levels of private outdoor space, an elevator and the city's most coveted amenity - a private garage. A commanding Brooklyn Heights location at the corner of Joralemon Street and Sidney Place makes this a legacy destination for generations to come.

Brought to you by the esteemed Brooklyn Home Company, 1 Sidney Place takes inspiration from the past and present to create a beautifully livable home made for gathering and entertaining. Intricate moldings and plaster medallions pay homage to the house's historic origins, while wide-plank European oak and fine marbles add undeniable elegance.Beautifully curated lighting, millwork, and fixtures by Plain English, Waterworks, Ralph Lauren and Rose Uniacke and more reinforce the timeless, upscale aesthetic

The formal first floor welcomes guests into a gracious foyer featuring a powder room and coat closet. Breathtaking oriel windows flank the lovely living room, while a large bay window and a Heat & Glo fireplace with a white marble surround adorn the formal dining room. Ahead, the work-of-art kitchen impresses with rows of custom cabinetry and honed Calacatta marble. State-of-the-art appliances include a stunning La Cornue dual-fuel range, Wolf range hood, and Bosch dishwasher, plus 36-inch Sub-zero refrigerator-freezer columns, a wine refrigerator and refrigerator drawers by Sub-Zero. The adjacent terrace is perfect for grilling.

Below, the garden level acts as a casual gathering place in contrast to the formal living spaces above. A massive mudroom surrounded by closets, bench seating, a laundry closet and a powder room ensures organized arrivals and departures. Envision the living space on this level as a media lounge or playroom featuring a wet bar with a Sub-Zero wine refrigerator, refrigerator, ice maker and dishwasher. A bedroom suite on this level is ideal for staff.

Head to the second floor to find a bedroom, a bathroom, and a third expansive living space featuring another fireplace, handsome built-ins, and access to a second oversized terrace. The home's third level is dedicated to a magnificent full-floor owner's suite anchored by a king-size south- and east-facing bedroom. Rows of custom wardrobes and a walk-in closet attend to wardrobe needs, while the spa-inspired en suite bathroom offers a walk-in shower, freestanding tub, double vanity and private water closet surrounded by swaths of honed Calacatta marble. On the top floor, two large bedrooms and full bathrooms flank a fourth living room and a convenient laundry room.

The home's crowning glory is the glorious rooftop terrace wrapped in wide-open views and equipped with a grill, refrigerator and ice maker. A massive basement with storage rooms, a third laundry, a powder room and space for a gym complete this unprecedented residence.

1 Sidney Place is a handsome Anglo-Italianate rowhouse built around 1870. With a beautifully restored brick fa ade, mansard roof, distinctive oriel windows and prominent corner location, the home is a prized contribution to the Brooklyn Heights Historic District.

This exceptional neighborhood is filled with world-class dining, shopping and breathtaking waterfront outdoor space. Enjoy an afternoon on the famous Brooklyn Heights Promenade or head to massive Brooklyn Bridge Park for outstanding events and recreation. BAM, Atlantic Terminal, and Barclay Center are within easy reach, and transportation is excellent with nearly every subway line in the city nearby, including R, 2/3, 4/5, F, G, and A/C trains.
