This charming 3 story Landmark townhouse is a true gem in Prime Boerum Hill. It's been very well maintained, in good move-in condition, and true to its original design.

There are separate breakfast and dining areas, a half bath, plus a working wood burning fireplace for romantic dinners. From the deck you'll enjoy the bright garden that features lovely landscaping now, but could easily be opened up for more active use. As you ascend to the parlor you find Front and Rear Parlor rooms with high ceilings, original plaster/details, original pocket doors, and loads of light. The top floor offers 2 large and one smaller bedroom, plus a full bath. All with nice high ceilings and excellent light. A real bonus awaits in the basement where you have a space with decent ceiling height and a very rare walk-out at grade to the garden. There are windows in the rear that flood the space with light. It will be a great recreation room where you can step right out to your back yard any time. Also in the basement are the Laundry, Boiler, HWH. This is one of those home that speaks to you and says "live here!" You're on one of the prime blocks in Landmark Boerum Hill - with the F/G train at the corner, the A/C/G and 2 a few blocks away. Boerum Hill is highly sought after for great dining, coffee shops, ice cream, shopping, schools, and a vibrant location in the middle of everything.

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.
