Property Description

Nestled in the heart of prime Brooklyn Heights, this timeless townhome presents an incredible opportunity for the discerning buyer. They truly don't make them like this anymore - Nearly impossible to replicate today, the grand scale and ornate original details harken back to the very consolidation of Brooklyn into NYC. Built in 1850 in the Second Empire style, this beautifully detailed home boasts approximately 4,000 square feet of old world craftsmanship sprawled over 5 floors. Currently configured as a 4 family, it can be delivered vacant, allowing the rare chance to preserve the timeless charm and lovingly restore to its former glory while embracing the conveniences of modern living. Ascending the stairs to the parlor level, you are welcomed by an elegant and dramatic foyer with 13 foot ceilings, abundant natural light and a fireplace. There is a grand staircase which runs the entirety of the building, with most rooms taking advantage of the full width of the house, and exceptional ceiling heights throughout. The first neighborhood in New York City to achieve landmark designation status, Brooklyn Heights is one of the most enviable locations in the city. Moments from downtown Manhattan, and with resplendent views along the promenade, this is an incredible vantage point to live your dreams. Steeped in history, this is a blank canvas to realize your dream home - as an income producing townhouse, a single-family home or a chance to join investors to recapitalize the property.
