Nestled on a pіcturеsquе treе‐lіned block in the hеаrt οf Clіnton Ηill, this exquisite home was built in the late 1800's. At nearly 24' wide on a 100-foot deep lot with three exposures, the house offers a rare combination of historic character, generous proportions, and beautifully integrated indoor and outdoor living with an abundance of natural light. Currently configured and enjoyed as a spacious single-family home, the property retains its legal status as a two-family residence.
Offering three bedrooms, with the flexibility for a fourth, three full bathrooms, multiple living spaces, a dedicated home office, abundant storage, and generous rooms throughout, this elegant property provides ample space to gather, work, and relax.
A gracious foyer sets a welcoming tone. Beyond the entryway, the formal living room showcases the house's original details, including plaster crown and ceiling moldings, hardwood floors, and an immaculately restored marble fireplace mantel with its original pier mirror, creating a warm and timeless setting for everyday living and entertaining.
Just beyond, a quiet home office with French doors and garden views offers an ideal space for work, reading, or a moment of calm.
The kitchen is truly the heart of the home. Granite countertops, generous work surfaces, a breakfast bar, abundant cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances make it as functional as it is welcoming. Soaring beamed ceilings, two oversized skylights and dual exposures with sliding glass doors fill the space with natural light and create a seamless connection to the deck and garden beyond. The spacious dining area overlooks the greenery outside and is equally suited to leisurely dinners, holiday gatherings, or a quiet morning coffee. A full bathroom with a soaking tub and bidet toilet, along with three closets, completes this level.
Upstairs, a large secondary living room provides another inviting place to gather. Centered around a beautifully restored marble fireplace mantel and framed by three windows with treetop views, the room can serve as a media room, library, playroom, or simply a comfortable place to unwind.
Through French doors, the primary suite overlooks the garden and enjoys lovely western light. The en-suite bathroom features custom opalescent tiles, a freestanding soaking tub, separate shower, and marble vanity, creating a peaceful retreat at the end of the day.
The top floor offers two additional rooms beneath beautiful original tin ceilings, easily serving as bedrooms, guest rooms, studios, or workspaces. Four closets, along with an additional walk-in closet add to the home's versatility. A third full bathroom with crisp white tilework and a tub completes the floor.
The outdoor spaces are every bit as special as the interiors. A charming front porch overlooks a professionally landscaped flower garden, while the expansive back yard has been thoughtfully cultivated into a secluded urban retreat. Mature birch and flowering trees and multiple flower beds create a sense of privacy and tranquility rarely found in the city. A drip irrigation system serves both the front and rear gardens, making maintenance simple and efficient.
Adding to the home's lasting appeal, the facade recently underwent a complete restoration, enhancing its historic architectural beauty while providing peace of mind for years to come.
The basement provides substantial storage and a dedicated laundry area.
Modern updates include central air conditioning and multiple heating and cooling zones for year-round comfort.
Perfectly positioned in one of Brooklyn's most beloved neighborhoods, the home is just two blocks from the C train and moments from Fort Greene Park, Barclays Center, BAM, Atlantic Terminal, and the endless collection of celebrated cafés, restaurants, boutiques, and neighborhood favorites that make Clinton Hill such a sought-after destination.
A rare offering that balances historic character, generous proportions, modern comfort, and exceptional outdoor living, this is a home of unusual charm, beauty and flexibility.
