In the heart of Brooklyn's coveted CLINTON HILL neighborhood, and located on a quintessential tree-lined street with rows of beautiful private townhouses, 66 Clifton Place is a SINGLE-FAMILY BROWNSTONE that has been meticulously RENOVATED, restoring the stunning original 19th-century detail combined with clean modern finishes and luxury features. One of the largest private townhouses available on the market in the area and within this price range, the house is perfectly laid out across four spacious floors, including four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, four original FIREPLACES and PRIVATE BACKYARD.


FIRST FLOOR: A seamless marriage of indoor and outdoor living, double glass doors open from the kitchen to an expansive 990sf, 55ft. deep patio and backyard. It features a slate tile patio with floating Ipe deck, an architect-designed OUTDOOR KITCHEN and BBQ, organic VEGETABLE GARDEN, shed, mature tree, and lush green LAWN. The large fully renovated kitchen features RADIANT FLOORS, an island with barstools, and a second sink, marble countertops, white oversized subway tile backsplash, custom cabinetry, hidden full-sized refrigerator, DISHWASHER, hooded gas range, DOUBLE STACKED OVEN, and a beautiful stone recessed storage nook. The kitchen flows directly to a casual dining area, and then to the family room/den with the convenience of an elegant solid onyx stone half bath and easy street-level entrance with mudroom/vestibule then leads up to the parlor level.


PARLOR LEVEL: The grand parlor level with main entrance features original wide-planked ebony painted wood flooring throughout and dramatic high ceilings with restored cornice. Perfect for entertaining, this grand level features a FORMAL DINING ROOM with built-in WET BAR and ample storage, a middle seating area, and a formal living room, adorned with two restored original decorative fireplaces.


3RD FLOOR: A dreamy master bedroom suite extending the full floor is perfectly laid out with a beautiful white painted wood mantle and decorative fireplace laid with neutral stone tiles. A library with built-in shelving and seating area offers a relaxing spot to curl up and read a book. Off of the master bedroom, a large custom WALK-IN CLOSET is sure to satisfy the storage needs to showcase the most generous of wardrobes. The oversized spa-like master bathroom extends across the back of the house and overlooks the serene garden. It features DUAL XO VANITY with ample storage space, an oversized SOAKING TUB, Toto toilet, and glass stall shower - a true oasis and escape where time and stress can be melted away.


TOP FLOOR: Two well-appointed bedrooms and one smaller bedroom, that may also be used as an office or nursery, have unique SKYLIGHTS and ample storage space. A white subway-tiled bathroom with bathtub and a FULL LAUNDRY ROOM perfectly round out the floor.


The house recently underwent a recent full renovation including CENTRAL AC, new Pella windows, fully restored facade, radiant floor heating, highly efficient mechanicals (including new Buderus boiler), ADT Security system, high-speed internet wiring, built-in SURROUND SOUND SYSTEM, and top-of-the-line home automation system by Savant. There is a FINISHED BASEMENT that is a usable extension of the home.


This enclave of prime Clinton Hill has become one of the most sought-after locations in Brooklyn, protected by landmarked restrictions and history. The area includes attractions like the Academy of Music, The Barclays Center, Fort Greene Park Farmer's Market, and plentiful neighborhood restaurants including Clementine Bakery, Meckelburg, Locanda Vini & Olii, Black Iris, and the Michelin Star rated The Finch. Just two blocks to the G train, and a short 10 min. walk to the C train to Manhattan.

Clinton Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Tucked behind the Brooklyn Navy Yard in central Brooklyn is the quiet residential neighborhood of Clinton Hill. Once a strictly working-class neighborhood, Clinton Hill has become known for its elegant brownstones and stately mansions that were built as Manhattanites crossed the East River in the 1920s in search of the supposed health benefits that came from living “on the hill,” which has an elevation of 95 feet. Now you will also find newer luxury apartment and condo buildings interspersed throughout the neighborhood.

The Pratt Institute and St. Joseph College give the area a certain energy that comes from having a college in your town, while it’s leafy streets, some with their original cobblestones, and slower pace attract young families. Millennials and professionals are flocking to Clinton Hill in search of a reasonably priced neighborhood that offers both nightlife and an easy commute to Manhattan. Clinton Hill is a beautiful neighborhood with a suburban feel and firm roots in its past that also offers plenty of urban amenities.

New businesses are showing up in Clinton Hill on a regular basis, adding to the current proliferation of coffee shops, restaurants, and bars. As the population changes, new entertainment and nightlife venues are migrating to the area to meet the demand. Barclays Center is within easy walking distance, offering exciting sporting events and concerts.
