This 1851 townhouse offers an incredibly rare opportunity to craft a five-story dream home in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. This glorious and gracious 25-foot wide Italianate brownstone is set on prestigious Pierrepont Street, between Henry and Hicks streets, on a tree-lined block flanked by wide sidewalks and gorgeous historic homes. The rear of the home faces out and over a charming carriage house located on Love Lane. Currently comprising multiple units and in need of gut renovation, this home will be delivered with Landmark Preservation Commission and DOB-approved plans and detailed renderings providing for a stunning modern renovation, including an elevator. The plans, designed by The Brooklyn Home Company, envision a home catering to the way modern families live while using every inch of the home s over 6,500 square feet to the utmost benefit. Having approved plans in hand shaves months of precious time and stress off your schedule, and the option to have this home built for you, without any hassle of managing the renovation, is yours for the asking. The parlor floor, with soaring 13-foot ceilings, features seamless and elegant living with a massive 450-square-foot living room leading to a decadent, modern kitchen lined with pantry and storage spaces and anchored by a massive marble island. Just beyond lies a sunny dining area, lit by a wall of windows, and access to the home's sweet backyard. The second floor is dedicated entirely to a lavish master suite with dual walk-in closets, a master bath with twin vanities and a private water closet, and a large bedroom opening dramatically to a large terrace. The third and fourth floors feature four more bedrooms, three full baths and a huge family room space. The garden and cellar floors feature den, home gym, wine cellar, laundry, entertaining, guest and storage spaces. Other notable features include an LPC-approved rooftop deck and bulkhead, three gas fireplaces, and best of all, windows and light from three exposures on the garden and parlor floors adding a warmth and openness rarely found in homes of this size and era. Set at the center of the important Brooklyn Heights Historic District, Pierrepont Street is one of the most coveted residential streets in all of New York City. As one of the most well-preserved areas of the city, Brooklyn Heights retains a quiet charm and neighborhood feel unlike anything else. Built in 1851, 81 Pierrepont Street offers tremendous access to green space with Cadman Plaza to the east and Brooklyn Bridge parks lining the waterfront alongside the world-famous Brooklyn Heights Promenade. Local dining favorites Colonie and Queen are blocks away, with the quaint shops and eclectic restaurants of Cobble Hill and Dumbo just north and south. Transportation options are abundant with 2/3, A/C, 4/5, R and F trains, plus numerous bus lines, and parking options, all within reach. This could be the home of your dreams in New York City s most charming, accessible and livable neighborhood.
