About this home

Picture-perfect Brooklyn Heights living awaits in this meticulously renovated three-bedroom, two-bathroom brownstone duplex featuring designer finishes and an expansive layout on one of the prettiest blocks in the neighborhood. Thoughtfully combined and reimagined in 2019, this magazine-worthy apartment welcomes you home with a sun-splashed ambiance thanks to rows of oversized south-facing windows. Ceilings rise up to 13 feet tall over wide-plank hardwood floors and a symphony of classic millwork, including picture-frame trim, tall baseboards, and window casings. On the home's lower level enjoy an open layout perfect for relaxing and entertaining alongside elegant bay windows, chic lighting and a decorative marble fireplace. The beautiful open kitchen strikes the perfect balance between old and new. Shaker cabinetry with cup-style cabinet pulls and beadboard trim is topped with sleek quartz countertops and farmhouse pendant lighting. The newer, upscale appliances include a gas range, dishwasher and cabinet-front refrigerator. The full guest bath on this floor boasts tall wainscoting, designer wallpaper and a shower. A barn door reveals a convenient study, while generous built-in storage and closet space complete the level. The contemporary staircase ushers you to the upper level, where three bedrooms surround a spacious den/family room space. Nestled alongside the home's lovely bay windows, the king-size primary enjoys wonderful natural light and a large dressing area. A full bathroom with a tub/shower, a convenient laundry closet and an additional storage room add comfort and convenience to this sunny, cheerful home. Located on a charming tree-lined street in the coveted Brooklyn Heights Historic District, 138 Remsen Street is a gorgeous Italianate brownstone constructed in the mid-1800s. Today, the professionally managed boutique cooperative offers basement storage and allows pets and in-unit washer-dryers. Parking is available on a waitlist basis. This exceptional neighborhood is filled with world-class dining, shopping and breathtaking waterfront outdoor space, with easy access to Dumbo, BoCoCa, Downtown and Fort Greene. Enjoy an afternoon on the famed Brooklyn Heights Promenade or Cadman Plaza, or head to massive Brooklyn Bridge Park for outstanding events and recreation. BAM, City Point BKLYN, Atlantic Terminal, and Barclay Center are within easy reach, and transportation is excellent, with nearly every subway line in the city nearby, including R, 2/3, 4/5, F, G, and A/C trains.
