Property Description for 281 State Street

Situated on historic State Street in downtown Brooklyn, this single-family, four-story townhouse was designed by the award-winning Rogers Marvel Architects as part of the 14 Townhouses project. This four bedroom, four full bath, townhouse, with its brick, stucco, and raw copper facade, seamlessly blends classic and modern design among its Italianate-style neighbors. Nine-foot-high brushed aluminum windows flood the interior with abundant light. Enter through the English basement to an ample foyer, den, full bath and Bulthaup custom chef's kitchen with Bosch and Sub Zero stainless steel appliances that opens to a soaring dining atrium framed by a glass wall and french doors that lead to a hewn-slate and ipe-decked garden. A full-floor living room, with a Rumford wood-burning fireplace and glass-enclosed balcony, reinterprets the parlor floor. Ascend the sky lit, custom-built staircase to the third level's laundry room and two guest bedrooms, each with a private bathroom on opposite sides of the floor. On the top floor you will find a huge master bedroom suite, with full bath and walk-in closet, leading to a private, south-facing roof terrace. A bonus 850-square-foot cellar (not included in the floor plan) can be used a gym and offers tons of storage space. Nestled among Atlantic Avenue's antique district, fashionable Smith Street and tony Brooklyn Heights, this specimen of timeless elegance and supreme functionality makes this one of the finest Brooklyn has to offer. Matterport tour available.

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.
