162 Columbia Heights, 1

Sprawling, sunny oasis with breathtaking views of New York Harbor and Lower Manhattan.

Residence No.1 at 162 Columbia Heights is a bright and peaceful full floor home with private entrance and approximately 25 x 60 feet of interior space and absolutely mesmerizing views, plus 1000 square feet of curated private outdoor space. The home features two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, additional large private storage space, and a staggering 30 foot long living room gallery. This rare and unique space is both intimate and grand, with a working gas fire place in the living room and a dining room that opens fully onto one of the most exceptional private decks and gardens anywhere in New York City. On a sunny day it feels like a home in the country.

The interiors are designed by the acclaimed architectural design firm of Baxt Inqui and have now been tastefully updated by the current home owners to include essential upgrades.

There is a new state-of-the-art concealed, Mitsubishi HVAC system, a magnificent master bath and custom walk-in closet, custom built guest room with queen-sized murphy bed and home office, gas burning fireplace, and custom window treatments including custom wood shutters, drapery and remote controlled shades.

Finally, the outdoor space has undergone extensive renovation and is now truly a seamless extension, with completely custom outdoor kitchen featuring a seven burner Wolf grill, subzero refrigerator, stainless draining outdoor sink, storage, and custom built-in Ipe wood furniture. There is also an integrated watering system and outdoor lighting.

Obsessively thought through, the original layout and design of Baxt Inqui blends the intuitive with the ingenious, from grand proportions in the master suite, to a walk in pantry in the kitchen, from polished nickel light fixtures juxtaposed with warm natural wood, to custom millwork and a built in buffet and wine bar. No detail has been left to chance. The kitchen includes a professional grade Blue Star gas range, external venting range hood, Miele dishwasher, Leibherr refrigerator and Calcutta gold marble. The home also includes full sized vented laundry in the unit.

162 Columbia Heights has low maintenance and is part of a well run cooperative in exceptional condition with recently new roof, boiler and hot water tanks. Gas and radiator heat are included though this home which has its own HVAC in addition. A 6x10x7 private storage unit is included in the low common charges.

Located on arguably the best block of Brooklyn Heights, you have instant access to world class amenities including the 85 acre Brooklyn Bridge Park, the arts, cultural and culinary delights of Brooklyn Heights and DUMBO and of course the first or second stop on 6 subway lines.
