Property Description for 135 Gates Ave
Lovingly maintained with wonderful original and period detail, this gorgeous Clinton Hill townhouse is extra-wide (22 feet wide!) and offers over 3500 square feet of living space. Currently configured as a double duplex, the lower unit features two bedrooms & two baths, while the upper unit offers three bedrooms & two baths. Both units have large open living areas and fantastic outdoor space.
The stunning parlor floor has 11" ceilings, enormous south and north facing windows, beautiful woodwork, crown and baseboard moldings, two original marble mantels (one with a gas fireplace), and a magnificent archway separating living from dining. Pocket doors with leaded glass lead to the eat-in kitchen. A screen porch off the back is the perfect place to have your morning coffee and enjoy the beautifully landscaped garden below. A full bath can also be found on the parlor level.
On the garden level are two extremely spacious bedrooms, one with a decorative fireplace. The master bedroom leads out to the garden. Each bedroom has crown and baseboard molding and a split system A/C unit. The five-piece marble, master bath features dual sinks, an extra-deep whirlpool tub and a walk-in shower. A full-size washer and dryer are conveniently located on this level.
The third floor of the house, the first floor of the upper duplex, is flooded with light and has an open floor plan. A decorative fireplace with a marble mantel is the focal point of the living room, while the large kitchen has an adjacent dining area. Off the living room is a deck spanning the width of the house with plenty of room for dining, grilling, and relaxing. The top floor of this unit has three well-proportioned bedrooms, two with large walk-in closets. Two large full baths can also be found in the upper unit.
Impeccably maintained by the same owner for 40 years, this house is a gem. Located in the heart of historic Clinton Hill, three blocks from the C train at Clinton/Washington, four blocks from the G train at Clinton/Washington, and surrounded by great shopping and dining, including Locanda Vini and Olii, Speedy Romeo, and Mekelburg's (to name a few), the location is wonderful!

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.
