Description

Garden Place is viewed by many to be one of the most desirable and beautiful blocks in Historic Brooklyn Heights. Behind its distinctive brownstone facade and positioned in the middle of this leafy and quiet block there is 28 Garden Place: a classic and elegant single-family townhouse with wonderful proportions and desirable East-West exposures. Built around 1850 on a 21' X 75' lot, it is 40' deep on all four floors and includes a sun-room and terrace from the parlor floor to the garden below. The gracious parlor features original medallions, crown moldings, high ceilings and marble mantels. The living room with a wood burning fireplace has long windows that provide abundant natural light and views of neighboring townhouses. The dining room connects to the terrace and shows views over carriage houses and surrounding gardens. An eat-in kitchen/sun-room and powder room complete the parlor. The second floor offers a full bath, a spacious master bedroom with walk-in closets, and another bedroom with a wood-burning fireplace, and built-ins. The third floor features two generously sized bedrooms, each with a walk in closet, and one full bath. In addition there is an office, a washer/dryer and additional storage space. The garden level has its own entrance under the stoop and offers a lovely family room with a beautiful wood burning fireplace, a guest bedroom with full bath and a fully equipped summer kitchen that opens into the garden. The basement holds the mechanics and provides ample dry storage space. This significant townhouse while retaining its historical and architectural details flawlessly blends those details with contemporary and modern day living. The property is in the heart of the Heights and only a few blocks to the Borough Hall station.
