314 Hicks Street #TWNH

Set on a corner in bucolic landmarked Brooklyn Heights, you?ll find this turn-key 24? wide sun-blasted, pristine townhouse, with private PARKING. Built to the most exacting standard only six years ago, this house has everything you are looking for, but never expected to find in one house. With five bedrooms, three full bathrooms and two half baths, this house is perfect for throwing parties, or just cozying up with family around the fire. All systems were new when the house was built in 2012 and have been meticulously maintained with substantial improvements made by the current owners. You?ll be able to move right in with all closets fully fit out, a sound system throughout the house and in the garden, a whole-house water filtration system, mechanized shades, video intercom and security system. At the garden level sits a gracious and beautifully finished kitchen featuring stone counters and a huge center island with room for six stools. Any chef would enjoy the top of the line appliances, which include a SubZero refrigerator/freezer, a Wolf range, microwave and double ovens, a warming drawer and garbage disposal. Past the powder room on this floor, a sunny corner family room sits off the kitchen, illuminated by southern light and warmed by a gas fireplace, and opening out onto the home?s lush private garden. This garden was meticulously designed by Brooklyn landscape firm Project Plant and provides an outside kitchen with plumbed gas Lynx grill, built in benches with storage, a custom playhouse (designed to be easily removed if a playhouse isn?t in your plans), and fully irrigated landscaping. A motorized gate opens to State Street and allows you to pull your car right in onto the bluestone patio, and close out the world out behind you. Pop in the back door straight from your car with your groceries! The home?s parlor floor is perfect for entertaining and cozy nights by the fire alike. It has soaring 11' ceilings and is bathed in light from its Southern, Eastern and Western exposures. The living room spans the 24? of the rear of the building, has a gas fireplace and custom built-in shelving. To the front of the house is an elegant dining room that peers out on the leafy green trees the Heights is famous for. A powder room and a central wet-bar with a dishwasher, wine fridge and sink, connect the dining and living rooms. Finally, a mechanized dumbwaiter to the kitchen makes hosting meals and parties that much easier. The primary bedroom floor is an oasis of calm and glows with sunlight through the skylight from the double height landing. The large bedroom is flooded with western light and looks out into the trees. The carrera marble five piece master bathroom is utterly beautiful and features double sinks and a custom vanity, deep soaking tub and separate glass shower stall. Adjacent to the bathroom is an expansive wall of closets, finished by California Closets. The front room on this floor was beautifully customized as an office with built in desks and shelving for two. The top floor is truly impressive and what you have been looking for: three full-sized bedrooms on the same floor, two full bathrooms, as well as an oversized washer and vented dryer. The front bedroom floats among the treetops and has an en suite bathroom with a tub. The two rear bedrooms sit comfortably side by side, and share the bathroom tucked away from the hall. In addition to all of this, the home offers a fully finished, temperature controlled basement with space for a great play room or den, and copious amounts of storage. All you need in one place, and made even better by the proximity to so many things that Brooklyn offers - Brooklyn Bridge Park, fantastic bars and restaurants, shopping from the likes of Barney?s as well as local boutiques. This is your opportunity to live in sheer comfort in the heart of Brownstone Brooklyn.
