Property Description
Here's a rare opportunity in the heart of Cobble Hill: a bright and airy 2-bedroom, 2-bath floor-through corner brownstone apartment with ceilings that soar 13 feet high, extra tall windows facing south, east, and west, and an array of historic details. Built in 1856 for merchant Samuel Richard St. John, 199 Clinton Street is a gorgeous example of the Italianate style that exudes the grandeur of a bygone era. The intricate moldings, medallions, and pier mirrors here must be seen in person to be believed.
Coming home to Apartment Two, you'll pass through the building's side garden and ascend a tall stoop to your private entrance. The entry foyer is framed by two elegantly curved doors reminiscent of a European palace. The living room spans over 21 feet long and is graced with extra tall south-facing windows that bathe the space in light all day long. A fully equipped kitchen with granite countertops is tucked away behind a paneled door.
The primary bedroom spans over 27 feet long and is filled with light from four extra tall windows facing south and west. There's an en suite bathroom, a closet with another wonderfully curved door, and a monumental ceiling medallion, which shows this was designed to be the most impressive room of the house back in 1856. Just outside your windows, there's a charming (and bountiful) apple tree, which yields enough fruit to feed the whole neighborhood!
The apartment's second bedroom is suffused with light from the south and east, and opens to a terrace that's just the right size for dinner for two. A second full bath, washer/dryer, and office with steps to a loft provide lots of options for making the most of this gorgeous apartment.
The apartment comes with its own dedicated storage space in the basement. The maintenance in this well-managed, 5-unit co-op is low, as the building's mortgage was paid off a few years ago.
199 Clinton Street is close to the best of Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights, and Boerum Hill with Cobble Hill Park just two blocks away and the waterfront of Brooklyn Bridge Park close by, too. Beloved establishments including Trader Joe's, Sahadi's, and DellaPietra's Meats are all within two blocks, as are an array of acclaimed restaurants, including Colonie, Chez Moi, La Vara, and Hibino. The 2/3, 4/5, F, G, R, and A/C subway stations and the ferry are also within close range for a quick commute to Manhattan and the rest of the city. Come see this airy and sun-filled gem and make it the backdrop for your next chapter in Brooklyn!
