43 Garden Place

43 Garden Place in Brooklyn Heights is a truly special 5 story, 24 foot-wide townhouse – a classic home with the perfect blend of preserved original details, bright open spaces, and warm cozy rooms to suit any lifestyle. The parlor floor has 11 foot ceilings and full height parlor windows -- the front living room with wood burning fireplace opens to a magnificent dining/entertaining room (with another fireplace), designed for both large crowds and quiet dinners. The thoughtfully designed open kitchen is a stunning backdrop to the dining room with its bead board walls and open shelving, and the marble topped island works perfectly for cooking prep and serving. A window seat built into the bay window frames the dining room, and this floor is connected to the tranquil, private garden through the kitchen door. One flight up is a comfortable library/family room with another fireplace, wrapped in custom built-ins -- the book collector’s dream room. The primary bedroom has a terrace overlooking the garden, and the en-suite bathroom has a steam shower and separate tub. There’s also a gorgeous separate office on this floor. On the fourth floor are two large bedrooms, a full bathroom, and another smaller bedroom or additional office. The fifth floor is exceptional: a bright open sitting room, a separate bedroom, a full bath and large open laundry room. On the garden level, there is a guest bedroom at the front, a living room and a utility kitchen on the way out to the garden – great for storing supplies for outdoor grilling and dining. This floor has both a full bathroom and a powder room. The basement has tons of organized storage areas, a wine cellar, and the home’s mechanicals. This gorgeous home was featured in Elle Décor for its elegant balance of stunning original details – including original marble mantels, pocket doors and plaster medallions – and comfortable, livable spaces from the open designer kitchen to the grand parlor floor and cozy library. 43 Garden Place is an exceptional home in the perfect Brooklyn Heights location.
