Description

23'-wide, a 138' lot, mint condition, with an elevator and a passive house – 47 Sidney Place is truly a rare and spectacular home. This grand and stately townhouse offers proportions and a level of finish like few other properties in all of New York City. Number 47 has been completely gut renovated and rebuilt as a passive house. The entire home is sealed from the outside world, creating a luxurious, ultra-efficient, soundproof home, sitting on one of Brooklyn's finest streets. A partial extension allows for layout flexibility on the lower three levels, and the extra-deep garden is an outdoor oasis, perfect for entertainment. Additional features include wireless speakers in every room, a multi-zone HVAC system, and high-end appliances. The grand stoop entry opens to the stunning parlor floor. This level features palatial ceiling heights, a classic double parlor, and a chef's kitchen in the rear extension. The kitchen is outfitted with luxurious fixtures and finishes and overlooks the garden and parlor terrace, which features a built-in grill. The garden floor is configured as a separate apartment, which can be easily incorporated into the home or kept as an private guest suite or income-producing unit. The clean basement is used for storage and mechanicals, which are in pristine condition, ensuring that this home is truly turnkey for prospective purchasers. The third floor is configured as a sitting room and a master suite with office and wet bar. The luxurious master bathroom is equipped with a steam shower, Toto toilet, and Waterworks fixtures. The bedroom features ample storage space with custom walk-in closets. And the office offers a sizable private workspace with all of the comforts of home. Above, on the fourth level, are two additional bedrooms, a full-sized laundry room, and a full bathroom. The top floor is a converted attic with vaulted ceilings and a full bathroom. Currently utilized as a third living room and gym, this can easily serve as an additional bedroom if desired. 47 Sidney is a beautifully maintained and luxurious home that offers exceptional width, pristine finishes, and a prime location. Only minutes from Manhattan, this townhome is set on one of Brooklyn's most desirable “place” blocks, lined with residential townhouses and oversized trees. Only steps from the bustling retail along Atlantic Avenue and Court Street, and minutes from Manhattan, 47 Sidney Place is conveniently located near local schools and countless restaurants, shops, and cafes. Indeed, this stunning home presents the opportunity to own a beautiful piece of New York City's first historic district.
