Property Description for 40 Remsen Street, 3

Rare opportunity on one of the most coveted streets in Brooklyn Heights to acquire this meticulously restored open concept apartment. This parlor floor home is flooded with light through the bay window that provides views of the intact historic streetscape and peek of the harbor at the end of the street. The restoration of the apartment included the original wood floors, built-ins, paneling, and one of the finest intact wood burning fireplace mantles to be found. Fourteen-foot-high ceilings allow for a loft like feel, and ample storage is provided in a fully outfitted double closet; additional private storage is provided in the basement. The renovation included the installation of a full kitchen with gas stove, dishwasher, undercounter drawer refrigerator, wine refrigerator, and generous storage in custom cabinetry with granite countertops. In addition, the bathroom was gut renovated resulting in a spacious spa like space with ceramic and glass tile, large glass enclosed shower, ample storage, and heated towel warmer. A custom-built murphy bed designed to resemble an armoire in mahogany with built-in lighting and ease of use, completes the package. Located in an intimate nine-unit cooperative, and on a cul-de-sac street that does not get through traffic, which allows for a peaceful space that is only one block from shopping/dining on Montague Street, three blocks from multiple subway lines (2/3,4/5,R), a short walk to Brooklyn Bridge Park, and steps to the Heights Promenade.

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.
