Property Description for 283 Henry Street

283 HENRY STREET is a stunning and grandly-proportioned brownstone with 6 bedrooms and a rear garden in the heart of the coveted Brooklyn Heights historic district! The brownstone is graced with rich hardwood floors, tasteful European-style crown moldings, high architectural ceilings, stained glass, and fireplaces. The overall size of the house is capacious and captivating, with generously-scaled rooms, a long impressive footprint from front to back, optimizing the airy flow and a regal, thoughtfully positioned curved staircase with wood banister connecting all floors, which doesn't detract from the living area. The enormous parlor floor is nothing short of magnificent and ideal for hosting a crowd. Beyond the main vestibule sits a stately library/sitting room with central gallery, and a dramatic rear-facing living room with a bay of breathtaking stain glass windows. The garden floor below extends the living/entertaining space with a large front den, a mirrored dining room with a chandelier and a vast kitchen appointed with a center island for prepping, Verona double oven, Whirlpool refrigerator and a Samsung dishwasher. The separate open dining area overlooks the peaceful garden that affords an idyllic setting for relaxing with a coffee or merely appreciating the changing seasons. The 3rd floor has a sumptuous master bedroom boasting oversized windows that face the serene garden below, a master bath and a fabulous high ceilinged sitting room (or 2nd massive bedroom). An additional 4 sunny bedrooms and 2 baths occupy the two upper levels. Owner/broker.

Brooklyn Heights | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Brooklyn Heights was Manhattan’s first suburb. The Brooklyn Bridge is a neighborhood draw, offering some of the most beautiful views of the Manhattan skyline, as well as an easily walkable means of commuting into the City. Montague Street has been the main commercial street in Brooklyn Heights since the 1800s, but it is not overly commercialized. Smaller shops help maintain the small neighborhood feel of Brooklyn Heights.

The quaint cobblestoned side streets highlight the historic feel to this lovely, vibrant neighborhood that is filled with exciting and innovative restaurants, stores that have those perfect home decor items, that little black dress you love, and your favorite dry cleaner is right around the corner. Brooklyn Heights is your perfect city within the City.

There are apartments, condos, and co-ops that resulted from the conversion of pre-war residential hotels. The townhouses in Brooklyn Heights are often five stories, instead of the three stories found elsewhere. You’ll also find row houses and stunning single family mansions. Due to the three protected historic districts, opportunities for new construction are limited, and the appearance of the neighborhood seems frozen in the era when these buildings were originally constructed.

Renowned public and private schools make the neighborhood attractive to young families with school-age children. The neighborhood is generally “kid-friendly,” with parks, playgrounds, and quiet streets where kids can still play safely.
