HISTORIC HEIGHTS TOWNHOUSE
 This elegant 21-foot-wide 5-story Italianate brownstone in prime Brooklyn Heights offers 4915 sf of living space filled with exquisite original details, soaring ceiling heights and oversized windows. East, west, and southern exposures provide light throughout the day. The parlor floor overlooks Grace Church and the Manhattan Skyline and New York Harbor are visible after leaf-fall.  A grand single-family in 1866, the home's period sensibility has been upheld with care and attention for the facade, ironwork, double door entry, a reconstructed original staircase, and 6 wood-burning fireplaces restored by the legendary Jos. A. Walas.  Converted in 1969 to a 3-family, it is occupied by the owners on the parlor through the 5th floors, with a garden level rental delivered vacant. There are a total of 12 rooms, 7 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and a full cellar beneath. Outdoor space includes a charming, private courtyard garden and a terrace above the extension. Unobstructed panoramic views from the roof make it ideal for a future roof deck.  Shown by appointment 10/3-10/31. VIDEO 10/20/25. Please reach out with questions and to schedule a visit.
