Description
Welcome to 117 State Street, a 25 foot wide, three-unit townhouse located on a tree-lined, townhouse block in the Historic District of Brooklyn Heights. Currently configured as a charming owner duplex with two 2-bed/1bath floor-through rental units, 117 State Street has the flexibility to provide a new owner with live-in income or convert to a single family residence.
The owner unit duplex is easily accessible from the street. Enter onto the Garden Level where there is an open layout with a large living room in the front, and a dining area and kitchen at the back. Exposed wooden beams lend charm and authenticity to this floor. The open kitchen is efficiently laid out and has high end appliances such as a Viking stove and a Bosch dishwasher. A French door provides access to a tranquil garden, surrounded by other gardens from both Sidney Place and Clinton Street. Up a short flight of interior stairs brings you to the Parlor Level which has expansive 10' 8" high tin ceilings. At the front there is a 2nd bedroom or office adjacent to a large sitting room. In the back there is an enormous, ensuite bedroom that spans the entire back of the house. From this large bedroom there is access to an intimate terrace overlooking the garden. This owner unit has sole access to a large cellar which provides lots of storage plus a washer/dryer for the owners' use.
The 3rd and 4th floor units are configured in a similar manner to one another: You enter into a sunny living/dining area which has an adjacent, bonus room which could be used as a 2nd bedroom, an office, a nursery and in one case, a music studio. The kitchen is located in the middle of each floor and then, in back, there is a large ensuite bedroom, similar to the size and expansiveness of the owner duplex's bedroom. Both units have 2 marble fireplace mantles each, tin ceilings and exposed brick. The top floor unit boasts a washer/dryer, and the 3rd floor unit has a terrace off the bedroom. Both units are awash in sunlight and look out onto tree-lined State Street.
This lovely townhouse is located near the transportation hub of Borough Hall with the 2/3, 4/5 and R subway lines. 117 State Street is also located near the world class Brooklyn Bridge Park as well as the Historic Brooklyn Heights Promenade. Shopping is close by on both Court and Montague Streets.
Please allow 48 hours notice for any showings and come see this well-maintained 25' wide house with all of its charm and original details.
