Welcome to 20 Strong Place, a charming circa 1900, 5-story brownstone with high ceilings, terrific light, original detail, a deep west-facing garden and a terrace with western views to Manhattan. This excellent condition three-family home, on the best block in Cobble Hill, has undergone a thoughtful restoration while still retaining the unique original details, including the marble fireplace mantles, window shutters, prewar mouldings, tin ceilings, solid wood doors and the skylight in the stairwell. It is currently set up as a duplex on the parlor and garden floors, a 1 bedroom apartment on the 3rd floor, and the 4th and 5th floors easily combine to create a 2 or 3 bedroom duplex with terrace. The apartments have split system AC units, refinished hardwood floors, and renovated kitchens and baths. Garden & Parlour floors: Enter from under the stoop or up the stairs to this flexible 2 bedroom apartment with access to the deep west-facing garden.
