Property Description for 263 Warren Street
On the market mid-May, this townhouse was off market for the summer, and re-listed after Labor Day. It is a striking 19th Century Greek Revival house, with stately dimensions, lived in as a single family, with a 3-family Certificate of Occupancy. With approximately 4000 sf on four floors, the dimensions are 20.83' x 40' on a 100' lot with a 15' extension on the parlor and garden levels and a full cellar beneath. The dramatic open double parlor provides a large living/dining space with high ceilings, historic detail, a marble mantle and wood-burning fireplace. The open kitchen is adjacent to the dining room in the glassed extension overlooking a deep, landscaped garden. A door from the kitchen opens to a deck with stairs leading down to the garden and the first-floor play/rec room also opens onto the garden. The home has beautiful light and story-book views of historic townhouses, church spires, sky and gardens. Cobble Hill is a highly desirable destination in Brooklyn and this neighborly block is between Court and Smith. The Warren St F/G station is at the corner of Smith and coming home will be the best part of your day.

Boerum Hill | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Boerum Hill is a tiny, quiet, primarily residential neighborhood in Brooklyn. There are broad tree-lined streets that are filled with elegant three and four-story brownstones and townhouses, mostly built between 1840 and 1870. There is a definite family vibe to the neighborhood, but young professionals are moving in, and with them are coming trendy bars to cater to their desire for some measure of nightlife, without having to linger in Manhattan. These new bars and restaurants are being sandwiched in amongst existing shops on both Atlantic Avenue and Smith Street, which are the main commercial areas in Boerum Hill.
Boerum Hill offers a convenient location that is still able to maintain its small-neighborhood feel. Shopkeepers value their customers and remember their regulars. It continues to do what it was designed to do, namely provide small-town living in the very shadow of the big city. Boerum Hill is an easy commute to other parts of the city, making it easy to come home every day to the peace and tranquility of Boerum Hill while commuting to a job anywhere in the city.
The neighborhood is quite walkable and you can take the time to catch up with your neighbors while visiting on their stoops. Shopping on Atlantic Avenue is stress-free with no high pressure. You can meet with friends at any of the many coffee shops and while away pleasant hours in conversation. The dining scene on Smith Street is similarly laid-back. Don’t expect that there will be quite as much to see or do as there is in Manhattan, but there are a decent number of interesting bars and restaurants providing a measure of nightlife. The trade-off is worth it, as Boerum Hill provides a quiet, peaceful place to live and raise a family.
