Welcome to this stunning 4-bedroom, single family house nestled in the heart of Clinton Hill. With approximately 3200SF of interior space on 4 levels, this is a rare 1862 gem that effortlessly combines original details with modern design.
Come inside to find exquisite original details that have been lovingly preserved, including two working fireplaces, crown moldings, and built-ins throughout. Iron tubs in the renovated bathrooms offer the perfect space to unwind and relax. The entire garden level, designed by the renowned architect Annabelle Selldorf, features a massive picture window, a chef's kitchen with marble countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, extra refrigeration and ample storage in a large pantry. Since the house is semi-detached, there are additional windows on the southern side, making it an unusually bright home. (Not to mention an outdoor side entrance with ample storage for bicycles and firewood). This home also has central air-conditioning.
The exterior is equally impressive, with a 150-year-old Japanese maple tree and a gorgeous private garden that invites you to soak up the sunshine and enjoy serene moments of tranquility. A lovely front porch, with elaborate Louisiana-style columns, spans the width of the house.
Located on one of the quietest and most coveted blocks in Clinton Hill, this home offers the perfect blend of urban living and community charm.
