Description
We are thrilled to introduce a home that raises the bar for luxury townhouses in NYC. Designed by KGBL NYC in Partnership with Hajdu Properties, 45 Douglass is a 25-foot-wide revivalist located in the heart of Cobble Hill that showcases refined artisan craftsmanship and timeless design at every turn.
Approaching the front facade, one is welcomed by a subtle brick facade with elegantly proportioned windows and custom doors, punctuated by a solid mahogany cornice created specially for the house. Enveloped by a hand-painted high-gloss black Dutch lacquer vestibule, one becomes immediately aware of the care taken in the selection of materials, finishes, and craftsmanship by the artisans at KGBL Studio. The parlor level reveals a balanced marriage of traditional and modern design. Rounded corners soften and warmly embrace the carved 19th century baroque marble fireplace, French Herringbone floors with Peruvian walnut borders, plaster crown moldings, rift white oak custom doors, and a curved staircase extending from cellar to penthouse. The powder room is a jewel box of fumed white oak wall panels, polished brass fixtures, and Mont Blanc marble wainscoting. The pantry is equally stunning, concealing the Sub-Zero refrigerator, freezer, and wine fridge below an illuminated Iris Onyx beverage bar.
The kitchen and dining area spans the full 25-foot width of the home, creating a gracious open feel. Book-matched Calacatta Caldia marble elevation and countertops frame a floating cabinet, brass shelf, Watermark fixtures, and a one-of-a-kind freestanding island, anchored by a Thermador 48" six-burner gas range. The kitchen opens to the balcony through two symmetrical French doors leading to the backyard.
The luxurious primary suite occupies the entire second floor. A private terrace off the generous rear bedroom and an intimate dressing room at the front bookend the floor. The primary bathroom is exceptional, transformed into a sanctuary of teak wall panels, Calacatta Crema Fabricotti twin showers behind a bronze glass wall, soaking tub, and double vanity. Medicine chests and linen cabinets are framed with polished brass accents, while Watermark fixtures and a heated micro cement floor complete the experience.
The third floor offers three spacious bedrooms, each with ample closet space and custom rift white oak pocket doors found throughout the home. A full bathroom sits off the main hall, with another full ensuite bath private to the largest bedroom.
The penthouse is a light-filled retreat paneled in walnut. With access to front and rear terraces, it creates a unique opportunity for entertaining, along with spectacular views of downtown Brooklyn. Blue Alaska Stone sits atop the wet bar with built-in Sub-Zero refrigeration, a dishwasher, and a hidden walnut-paneled powder room tucked neatly beside it.
The garden floor is defined by the family room's custom KGBL designs. An oiled walnut bookshelf with solid bronze shelves and Calacatta Breccia Turquoise fills an entire elevation. A wet bar of fumed white oak and Honey Onyx sits beside the powder room, with French doors leading to the rear yard. The floor also includes laundry with Calacatta Michelangelo countertops, as well as a guest bedroom with a full ensuite bath and walk-in closet.
The lower level, inspired by Donald Judd, offers a final visual moment with soft volumes of hidden lighting, warm paneled finishes, coffered details, generous storage, and sculptural cement floors.
Set in prime Cobble Hill, every detail at 45 Douglass St. has been carefully curated to create a layered and functional design that is warm, inviting, and timeless. Designed by true artisans, this home is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
