This rarely available parlor floor residence is located in a classic brownstone on St. James Place. The location offers an unobstructed, tree-lined street of Lefferts Place.
The home's design blends multiple 19th and 20th-century design with 21st-century functional living. Sky-high ceilings, dramatically scaled windows, and original intricate moldings establish the perfect brownstone living for you to entertain or retreat in.
The open living area is soaked with natural Eastern exposure. The space was restored with original woodwork and the front room's showpiece is a reserved Art Deco fireplace. The custom-designed kitchen includes: sleek, flush-mount cabinetry and stone countertops conceal an abundance of storage, balanced by high-end stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher.
The floorplan is flexible to create a sleeping space in the rear or front of the building. The full bath is a pristine gut renovation subway tile and a restorative soaking tub. A distinct dining or dedicated office enclave extends seamlessly from the kitchen, complemented by a thoughtful integration of storage space that includes a closet.
Set in the cultural heart of Clinton Hill. It offers immediate access to celebrated culinary spaces for foodies, and is so close to Ft. Greene Park and Prospect Park. Just around the corner from the C train at Clinton/Washington and near the G train, ensures you will be in your next destination in minutes.
Please see pictures of the space vacant and furnished by the current tenant. This is a Brooklyn, art deco dreamscape.
