Description

On a majestic tree lined street, a stunning 5 story, four unit townhouse in prime Cobble Hill is a rare opportunity which presents itself only on occasion. Maintained with care and panache, this five story home is currently configured as an owner's duplex with three free market apartments, each lovely in their own way.

The owner's duplex is an elegant parlor floor with soaring ceilings and handsome, grand windows. Gorgeous hardwood floors, and period crown moldings make the feel luxurious but not ostentatious. The formal dining room is tasteful yet beautiful, and through the kitchen, past the glass enclosed sun room, you will feel the pull to the outer deck then the outside garden. Inside, the master suite is on the garden level, with den, office and master bath. Full bathrooms are on the garden level as well as the parlor floor.

Upstairs are the three high income rentals, each one bedroom plus den, each well turned out with French doors, high ceilings, and details numerous, including original crown moldings and medallions. The apartments have updated kitchens and bathrooms, and demand high rental income should this be a desired goal. Of course, the upper apartments can be seamlessly combined with the parlor duplex, making a spacious 23 ' wide townhouse encompassing over 5000 square feet of restrained opulence. In one of the finest neighborhoods in all of New York, you will be close to some of the best shops and restaurants in Brooklyn, with subways nearby.

Don't miss this house.
