199 Clinton Street, 1

This nearly 2200 SF duplex coop in a majestic corner building in prime Cobble Hill–just a block from Atlantic Avenue and Court Street and a short walk to the Borough Hall subway station–is a rare offering. Completely renovated with designer finishes, central AC, high ceilings, light from three exposures, 3 beds, 2.5 baths, and a huge windowed recreation room with flexible space for a gym, home offices, a playroom, and incredible storage. Built at 23’ wide by 64’ deep, this home has a scale that is off the charts. If you think that a first-floor duplex isn’t for you, I would ask that you make an appointment to see this home in person. This floor is awash in stunning historic details artfully juxtaposed with the comforts of today. Indulge in central heating and cooling and a masterful kitchen, while also experiencing the irreplaceable details only found in turn-of-the century homes, including a stunning marble mantle, exposed brick, inlaid wood floors, and decorative plaster crown moldings. Relish in your very own entrance for privacy and ease, with a mud-room like foyer for strollers, sports equipment, and seasonal clothing, and a discrete powder room with stylish wallpaper. As you head towards the great room, prepare to be amazed! Light streams in from multiple windows facing South and West, and the Great Room offers dramatic space for a comfortable living room, a formal dining space, and a chef’s kitchen. Renovated with practicality and aesthetics in mind, the kitchen includes custom wood cabinetry with inset mirrors for great light, an Artistic Tile mosaic backsplash, Caesarstone countertops, GE Café appliances including a 5-burner stove, oversized Fisher & Paykel fridge, Bosch dishwasher, and Viking microwave. Custom millwork in the dining area acts as a centerpiece for your dining room and seamlessly incorporates extra space for dried goods and cleaning supplies. The entire back of the main floor offers three quiet bedrooms and an additional full bath. Head downstairs to a sizable recreation room where the possibilities are endless. Two large walk-in closets and a wide hallway area offer unrivaled storage and open up to a large open space that includes a door to a gated horse-walk for extra air and accessibility. A full bathroom with a shower also includes a laundry area with a full-sized vented washer and dryer. The current owners use the lower level for an extra play area, media room and home gym. It can be divided into a few spaces for multiple uses depending on your needs and has been outfitted with a warm and comfortable floor of oversized modern cork-backed Marmoleum tiles that add a whimsical touch. This friendly five-unit coop is a stone’s throw from the best amenities in Cobble Hill including schools, shops, restaurants, movie theatres, and parks. Grocery options are vast and include Trader Joe’s, Sahadi’s, DellaPietra’s Meats, a greenmarket, and a Key Food, all less than a block away. Top-rated restaurants and bars will become your neighborhood haunts and include Colonie, Chez Moi, La Vara, Elsa and Hibino. Subway lines within a 10-minute walk include 2/3/4/5/R/F/C/A/G and many parking garages are also nearby for your convenience. Head over to Cobble Hill Park for a relaxing afternoon, go for a run or bike ride in the top-rated Brooklyn Bridge Park, or pass the day at the oasis of Governor’s Island, a short ferry ride away. This home is the complete package in one of Brooklyn’s most coveted leafy, low density, and landmarked neighborhoods, one stop to Manhattan.
