Description

Located in prime Cobble Hill, this single-family townhouse is elegant and bright. Stylish interiors include high ceilings, oversized windows, French doors, and gorgeous original marble fireplaces. The chef?s kitchen and dining room is a timelessly chic space ? state of the art appliances, custom cabinetry, and an unusual wraparound layout combine to create the ideal dining area. The south garden includes a spacious dining patio, plus a tranquil, private paradise for any gardener. Must be seen. You will not find a better-priced finished single-family townhouse. This home offers four bedrooms and amazing privacy.

Low taxes ($3,637 annually) and an enviable location between Court Street and Tompkins Place make this single-family townhouse ideal. Shop, eat and drink along Court Street or Smith Street?s restaurant row. Picnic at nearby Brooklyn Bridge Park. The F and G trains are a short walk from your door, and Borough Hall?s many express trains are easily accessible.

Through double doors, enter the front foyer with closets on either side. The front parlour has generous ceiling heights and decorative moldings. A graceful central staircase is nearby. The eat-in chef?s kitchen is bright and airy, with custom cabinets by the current owner, an artist. The decorative marble fireplace to the right is original. Stainless steel appliances include a twin Thermador refrigerator and freezer, a Thermador oven and five-burner range, and two Bosch dishwashers. The rear sitting room is sun-drenched, with terra cotta tile floors and two sets of French doors opening onto the spacious dining terrace and lush south garden.

Bedroom Suite Level:
The classic front library has soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, and a wood-burning fireplace with an ornate marble surround. Sun streams through the double-width picture window. Another decorative fireplace and original moldings ornament this room. High ceilings make the space feel bright and airy. The ensuite master bath is beautifully-renovated, with sunny side-windows.

Third Floor:
A skylight brightens the graceful central staircase. Original shutters, terrific ceiling height, and an ensuite full bath complete this room. The rear bedroom is currently an artist?s studio, with pressed-tin ceilings and an alcove dressing area.
