Property Description for 22 Strong Place

22 Strong Place is a 6,600SF townhouse on one of Cobble Hills most beloved blocks. This spectacular home, built 22 x 60 on five floors, is offered as a clean, blank slate and ready for a purchaser to finish to their specifications.This home has just received a brand new roof and extensive repair after damage from a fire that was contained to the top floor and is ready for a contractor to begin the finishing work. A purchaser has the option of retaining a huge amount of custom millwork: closets, bookcases, kitchen cabinetry, bathroom cabinets, marble counters, and high end appliances (Liebherr, Gaggenau, Viking). Wall studs are intact, and most mechanical systems are in good working order (including radiant heat in two of the bathrooms and the garden level). A 2011 complete renovation included installation of multi-zone heat and air conditioning systems, two new boilers, an elevator neatly tucked at the rear of the parlor through fourth floor, all new windows, the garden level transformed as a wonderful media/family/play room with radiant heat, garden and patio excavated with direct access from both parlor and garden floors, and a spectacular Ipe roof terrace with views to NY Harbor and Manhattan. The handsome brownstone faade was also redone in 2011.Unique features of this massive detached brownstone are its 24.5 x 109 foot lot size, the 60-foot depth on every floor, high ceilings throughout including 14-foot parlor floor ceilings and 12 feet on the top floor, and a center stair configuration on the upper floors with three large windows across on both the east and west sides. Each bathroom benefits from a window along the north wall. The massive west-facing backyard is graced by a magnificent Mulberry tree the kind that tree house dreams are made of!This is one of Cobble Hills largest homes in an ideal location down the street from PS29, and near all the fantastic restaurants and shops this amazing neighborhood is known for. This is a rare opportunity to jump right in to the finishing stage of a renovation and make it your forever home.

Cobble Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

The neighborhood now known as Cobble Hill was originally settled by Dutch farmers in the mid-1600s. Tucked along the East River, in the heart of Brooklyn, Cobble Hill is known for its welcoming, leafy streets, independent mom-and-pop shops, and 19th century brownstones.

Most of Cobble Hill lies within an historic landmark district, and building heights are restricted to 50 feet, which helps maintain its 19th century atmosphere. Building owners will often split the use of their four- or five-story buildings, occupying several of the top floors and renting out the ground floor as apartments or, conversely, occupying one or more of the lower floors and renting out the top floors. New construction and alterations to existing buildings in the historic district require approval by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, which helps maintain the historic character of the Cobble Hill neighborhood.

Although most housing in Cobble Hill consists of traditional brownstones and brick townhouses,, you will also find churches that have been converted to condos, carriage houses that have become luxury apartments and Victorian school houses that have been converted into lofts.

Court Street and Atlantic Avenue are the main commercial streets in the neighborhood. You will find popular Middle Eastern restaurants on Atlantic Avenue. Court Street is home to casual restaurants, many with outdoor seating, relaxed cafes and hip bars.

Many young professionals and families live in the brownstones, townhouses, and single-family homes that line the leafy streets. Cobble Hill is a great place to live if you work on Wall Street, as you can walk over the Brooklyn Bridge to work.
