167 Clinton Street, #2

A rare opportunity to own a Parlor floor-through three bedroom in a mid-1800s brick and brownstone townhouse in the Brooklyn Heights Historic District. Entirely unique and truly expansive, this lovingly preserved pre-civil war home extends the full depth of its lot through a seamless fusion between its extended main townhouse and its rear carriage house. Upon entry, you are immediately presented with quintessential wow-factor in the form of grand and voluminous entertaining spaces under 11-foot ceilings with two original working fireplaces framed in statuary marble. Gorgeous double french doors lead into a corner formal Parlor room with new double-hung windows inviting in Southwestern light. Highlighted by leafy Southern views through casement windows, the sprawling and open concept living/dining room is accented with tasteful built-ins and decorative moldings. The large windowed kitchen forms the heart of the home and offers the ideal footprint for a showpiece chef’s kitchen with a central island to share memories with family and friends.

A laundry area with a vented Washer/Dryer adjoins. A private three bedroom wing is connected by a long hallway with bright exposures over private townhouse gardens, and features a large primary with en-suite windowed bath and north/south windows for cross-breezes. This brick and brownstone townhouse was built at the end of the Greek Revival period in 1849 when Brooklyn Heights was growing into a coveted leafy enclave of fine mansions and distinguished cooperatives. The former single-family mansion is now a fiscally-sound boutique co-op of four full-floor homes with no underlying mortgage, no flip tax and exceptionally low maintenance.

In addition to abundant in-unit storage, there is ample common storage in the basement. It is also pet-friendly with an on-call resident manager. At the center of everything best known and loved in Brooklyn, this residence is near to seven train lines, schools, Brooklyn Bridge Park and the Promenade, with local favorites Colonie, Henry Public, Hibino, Sahadi’s and more just around the corner.
