16 Sidney Place

ONE SINGULAR SENSATION. 16 Sidney Place is located in the most serene part of Brooklyn Heights- on a charming, quiet street street that is one direction and only two blocks long. This home is a pristinely renovated, light filled, 22 feet wide, five story, six bedroom, four and a half bath, one family townhouse with elevator, offering historical views with contemporary conveniences and international style. Entering on the parlor level, you are greeted with 12 foot ceilings and buffed cement floors that offer radiant heat, running the length of this floor's deep footprint. The living room affords over sized custom, wooden Marvin windows, a gas fireplace and passage to the open dining room. To the left are two options to ascend through the home- a custom stainless steel, glass, and walnut cantilevered staircase and the centrally located elevator. The dining room, comfortably seating eight, empties to the sun-kissed kitchen with Valcucine cabinetry, high end appliances and floor to ceiling Bliss Noram narrow-sightline steel windows that yield backyard breezes and doors that give way to the deck, dining patio with grill, open air cabana with water wall and an elegantly planted, low maintenance yard. A smartly hidden powder room and entry closet finish off the parlor floor. Next is the full floor master suite. The master bedroom has custom leather wall built-in cabinetry, a vanity table and en suite bathroom featuring dual sinks, a freestanding soaking tub and a walk-in steam shower with a floating white stone bench.
