An Ideal Family Location
Growing families have long treasured Garden Place in Brooklyn Heights. With no through traffic, kids make full use of the street, watched by a close-knit community. Ample homes — close to schools — offer the space that families with children need. This much-loved home offers Garden Place living on three levels, all in the top floors of an 1854 brick townhouse.
The bedroom floor features three well-proportioned rooms, two with fireplaces and one with a sunny view of the garden below. The rear bedroom is currently used as an office with built-in bookshelves and cabinets. The middle bedroom has its own deck, a quiet place in the treetops. There are two full baths on the floor, one recently renovated and one with laundry facility. The bath renovation opened a window on the home’s history, highlighting original beams and a brick arch.
Upstairs reveals an airy, loft-like open floor, with light streaming from skylights in the ceiling high above. The open kitchen/family-living space with two fireplaces makes for easy, flowing entertaining, and the home has hosted many gatherings of friends and family. The flow moves right to the spacious roof deck, large enough for two tables, a porch swing and grill. On the home’s third level, there is another large bedroom with its own sitting area overlooking the living space below, and another full bath, also recently renovated.
The two-unit building has sound financials, and low maintenance of only $700/month.
This family home is offered at $2,750,000.
