Description
Set within a Greek Revival townhouse on one of Brooklyn Height’s most coveted blocks, this three-bedroom, two-bath parlor residence has been meticulously restored and reimagined to recapture it’s historic proportions while layering a restrained mix of contemporary design. The result is a home of balance and beauty, bathed in natural light from three exposures and overlooking tree-lined Sidney Place and the neighboring gardens beyond. Ceilings, returned to the grand height of 10 to 11 feet, crowning over a living space anchored by nine-foot windows and a wood-burning fireplace with it’s original carved marble mantel. Central air conditioning is seamlessly concealed within the ceiling to preserve the overall aesthetic. Historically accurate moldings and baseboards trace the perimeter, reintroducing scale and detail, while solid white oak floors have been refinished throughout. All nine windows are outfitted with motorized Roman blinds for effortless comfort. The kitchen unfolds from the living area with quiet sophistication, with custom cabinetry and tactile stonework. Arabescato Fiorito Viola marble wraps the counters, island, trim, and baseboards, paired with integrated Fisher & Paykel refrigeration, a 36-inch AGA Elise induction range with custom vented hood, and an 18-inch wine refrigerator. Forbes & Lomax solid brass control fittings and a discreet walk-in pantry with a ventless LG washer-dryer add functional refinement. Two garden-facing bedrooms are wrapped in lime-washed walls, creating a serene retreat. The primary bath is finished in Pelle Grigio marble with Waterworks fixtures, a limestone floor, and a heated towel warmer; the secondary bath continues the narrative with Calacatta Macchia Viola marble, Tadelakt plaster walls, and Waterworks fittings. At the front of the home, a pair of 200-year-old solid oak doors salvaged from a French chateau stand as a sculptural reminder of history’s permanence, bridging eras with quiet elegance and marking the threshold to a versatile third bedroom, office, or library. This five-unit cooperative is pet-friendly, financially sound, and offers basement storage and shared laundry with no additional cost. Perfectly situated in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, moments from the Promenade, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and the neighborhood’s celebrated cafés and shops, this is a residence that honors craftsmanship, proportion, and the enduring art of restoration.
