19 Grace Court Alley

Nestled at the end of the acclaimed Grace Court Alley in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, #19 is a 25-foot-wide dreamy red brick carriage house that is the epitome of charm and remarkable design with every detail perfected. From the facade, a windowed black lacquer French front door encased in stone sills imported from Cooperstown and a working gas lamp set the stage for the beauty that lies within. The interior of the home is clad in a chic palette of black and white. Ebony stained Brazilian cherry floors are bathed in all day natural light from North and South facing exposures. A small library with Putnam rolling ladder and custom bookshelves provide a tranquil entry moment and force one to notice the 11.5' high ceilings that culminate in exquisite crown mouldings. A large living and dining room are perfectly divided by a centered mantel with working wood burning fireplace. A beautiful kitchen is appointed in SubZero, Bosch and Miele appliances with cabinets handcrafted by Michael Fuelner. Everything in the kitchen is so perfectly positioned with the stove and oven set in a lovely nook overlooking the garden. The rear garden is nothing short idyllic. Enclosed by a stone wall covered with lush ivy, there is a persimmon tree overhanging a working Moravian tiled fountain, an iron balcony imported from Paris and a slate patio that is a picturesque setting for outdoor dining and lounging. Modern amenities in this home include central heating and air conditioning as well as a washer and dryer.

A winding stair leads to a light filled serene master bedroom floor. This private oasis has a South facing oversized balcony opening through side by side Marvin french doors. A dressing area leading to the master bathroom is appointed with thoughtfully built custom closets. A stunning master bath finished in limestone features Lefroy Brooks fixtures and a deep soaking tub. Downstairs from the main level is another large room suitable for a second bedroom, home office or den with an access door back upstairs to the garden. There is second full bathroom on this level as well as access to the building mechanicals and additionals storage.

19 Grace Court Alley was originally built in 1895 and was recently restored with the highest quality materials and attention paid to every detail. This exclusive private lane (with no street parking allowed) is lined with only 15 historic homes in the heart of the Brooklyn Heights. From this location, you are moments from public transportation, many prestigious schools, the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, Brooklyn Bridge Park and an endless array of dining and shopping options on nearby Montague Street.
