Property Description for 107 Douglass Street
An immeasurably comfortable home. It's where you want to live. 107 Douglass Street is perfectly situated at the crossroads of Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill, Park Slope and the cool industrial aesthetics of the Gowanus late 19th century past. This 3-story plus basement townhouse with 4BR/3BA and gorgeous manicured garden and patio is set on a 20' x 100' lot and was fully renovated in 1992. It boasts approximately 2,500 s/f with 1,600 s/f of residential space and an additional estimated 1,500 s/f FAR. It presently has an owner's garden duplex and a spacious and sunny high income top floor-through apartment with a windowed kitchen over looking the verdant garden. It can be converted to the original 3 floor-throughs. The garden apartment has an extension which can be built in the other floors. As you step through the main door you enter an open-plan living and dining area plus a spacious eat-in kitchen with sliding glass doors leading to a 240 s/f patio and a 920 s/f beautifully landscaped garden. The patio has been converted into a lovely cabana. A large bedroom and bathroom are on the same floor. Hardwood floor throughout the house, all new electric, plumbing, and roof. A dry concrete cellar with full height, abundant storage, laundry and mechanicals. Endless possibilities for a gym or family room. Both apartments have own entrances. Delivered vacant. Rental comps available on request.

Boerum Hill | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Boerum Hill is a tiny, quiet, primarily residential neighborhood in Brooklyn. There are broad tree-lined streets that are filled with elegant three and four-story brownstones and townhouses, mostly built between 1840 and 1870. There is a definite family vibe to the neighborhood, but young professionals are moving in, and with them are coming trendy bars to cater to their desire for some measure of nightlife, without having to linger in Manhattan. These new bars and restaurants are being sandwiched in amongst existing shops on both Atlantic Avenue and Smith Street, which are the main commercial areas in Boerum Hill.
Boerum Hill offers a convenient location that is still able to maintain its small-neighborhood feel. Shopkeepers value their customers and remember their regulars. It continues to do what it was designed to do, namely provide small-town living in the very shadow of the big city. Boerum Hill is an easy commute to other parts of the city, making it easy to come home every day to the peace and tranquility of Boerum Hill while commuting to a job anywhere in the city.
The neighborhood is quite walkable and you can take the time to catch up with your neighbors while visiting on their stoops. Shopping on Atlantic Avenue is stress-free with no high pressure. You can meet with friends at any of the many coffee shops and while away pleasant hours in conversation. The dining scene on Smith Street is similarly laid-back. Don’t expect that there will be quite as much to see or do as there is in Manhattan, but there are a decent number of interesting bars and restaurants providing a measure of nightlife. The trade-off is worth it, as Boerum Hill provides a quiet, peaceful place to live and raise a family.
