Property Description for 171 Columbia Heights, TH

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION...

From morning to night, this unrivaled four-bedroom Brooklyn Heights townhouse is uniquely suited to today's lifestyle needs. Home has never been more important, and this exceptional duplex residence that has never been lived in combines the very best features of a private townhouse, expansive loft, and amenity-rich condominium in one. From its outstanding location, iconic outdoor space and conveniences are within easy reach.

Wake up to serene garden views in one of the 4,434-square-foot townhome's four complete suites nestled in a private bedroom wing. This excellent arrangement provides privacy for every household member while creating an ideal flow for busy morning routines. In the luxurious owner's suite, two custom walk-in closets attend to wardrobe needs. The en suite spa bathroom dazzles with a freestanding soaking tub, rain shower, and chic double vanity surrounded by beautiful silver travertine. Each of the three secondary suites boasts a large reach-in closet and a well-appointed bath with breathtaking tile and aged brass fixtures. A large laundry room adds convenience to the well-planned private quarters.

Gather around the bright breakfast room for casual meals and conversation surrounded by wide art walls and golden light. The adjacent chef's kitchen stands ready, whether your goal is a quick snack or an elaborate culinary feat. Sleek white cabinetry and Italian Carrara marble countertops surround a full suite of premium Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances, including a gas cooktop, oven, and dishwasher.

Whether days call for work from home tasks or at-home schooling, the extra-large den is the perfect venue with its airy atmosphere and outdoor outlooks. When it's time for a lunch break, step outside to the nearly 75-foot long private terrace delivering plenty of space for al fresco dining, sunbathing, and play. Descend the stylish blackened steel staircase to explore the duplex's lower level that can easily accommodate a playroom, family room, media room, gym, or all of the above, meaning there's never a shortage of at-home recreation and entertainment. A spacious storage room and another half-bath complete the level.

As the sun sets, it's time for cozy family gatherings or intimate entertaining in the dramatic great room, featuring a generous footprint for multiple seating areas and dinner for 10 guests or more. Framed by floor to ceiling motorized window treatments, massive arched windows flood the space with light while 7.5" plank Austrian white oak paves the floors. A bold black column nods to the home's loft-like grandeur, and designer lighting, including a Sergio Mouille six-arm lamp, amplifies the soaring ceiling heights. A coat closet and powder room just inside the door allow for immediate stowing of belongings and handwashing, and multi-zone climate control ensures year-round comfort in this exquisite sanctuary.

Located within the coveted Brooklyn Heights Historic District, The Standish is a contemporary reimagining of a gorgeous Beaux-Arts masterpiece. The luxury condominium residents enjoy 24/7 doorman and concierge service, a stunning marble lobby and lounge, a fitness studio, children's playroom, storage, a bike room, and a landscaped rooftop terrace with jaw-dropping harbor views.
Positioned directly adjacent to the renowned Promenade and massive Brooklyn Bridge Park, this fantastic location delivers acres of glorious waterfront outdoor space just minutes from your front door. The shops, services, and dining of Brooklyn Heights and Dumbo are within easy reach, and transportation from this sought-after neighborhood is a breeze with 2/3, A/C, R, and 4/5 trains, the Fulton Ferry Landing, CitiBikes, and the BQE all nearby.

It's not often that a place combines the very best features of a private townhouse, expansive loft, and amenity-rich condominium in one, and allows you to be the first to call it home. If you've been holding out for something special, this is worthy of your consideration.

Showing safely, by appointment.

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.
