About This Home
Set along one of Brooklyn Heights’ most storied blocks, this meticulously restored duplex blends the scale and character of a classic prewar residence with a refined contemporary sensibility. Positioned moments from the Promenade and the boutiques and cafés of Montague Street, the home offers a rare balance of historic charm, modern function, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. A gracious open-plan main level is framed by soaring beamed ceilings exceeding ten feet, oversized windows, and wide-plank oak flooring throughout. Oversized steel-framed French doors open directly onto a multi-tiered private garden, creating an effortless extension of the living and dining spaces. The custom kitchen is finished with substantial honed marble surfaces, stainless steel appliances, a vented gas range, and thoughtfully integrated storage, while a gas fireplace anchors the living area and lends warmth and intimacy year-round. Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms are complemented by a beautifully appointed full bath with soaking tub, as well as a vented in-unit washer and dryer. Additional features include central air conditioning, natural stone finishes, and exceptional attention to detail throughout the renovation. The cooperative is pet friendly and offers common laundry and private storage. Just outside your door are the tree-lined streets, waterfront parks, and architectural beauty that continue to define Brooklyn Heights as one of New York’s most enduring and sought-after neighborhoods.
