Property Description for 105 Cambridge Place
105 Cambridge Place is the jewel in the crown of Victorian Italianate brownstones located on this two block long bucolic tree lined street in the Clinton Hill Historic District. This house has a lot to boast about and is where history and modern living come together.
At nearly 4000 sq ft over four floors this lovely and gracious newly renovated home offers you the option of living in a grand one family home, a triplex with garden floor rental income or the double duplexes presently configured.
Currently the 21 foot wide two family double duplexes provide an abundance of rooms to live, work and grow into. Ascending a sweeping extra wide stair with wrought iron railing to the double arched doorway leads you into the dramatic foyer, black and white historic marble floors and impressive paneled staircase.
LOWER DUPLEX
Exceptional ceiling heights of over 11 feet plus period details such as original crown moldings, a beautiful statuary marble fireplace, Pier Mirror, floor to ceiling windows with folding shutters, and double arched pocket doors with etched glass all call for a standing ovation!
Adding to this fabulous entertaining space, the next act is the large and inviting eat in kitchen which can accommodate ten to twelve guests for the perfect dinner party!
This kitchen has a 10 foot Carrara marble island, custom cabinetry with a Moroccan tile backsplash, a five burner gas cooktop with convection oven, Bosch dishwasher and Subzero fridge. Three sets of French doors, two with Juliette balconies and third with a deck and stairs descending into the large, lush garden+patio provide the perfect spot for outdoor dining.
The garden level of this fabulous duplex with its almost 9 foot ceilings offers two bedrooms with generous proportions, access to the garden, arched windows with folding wood shutters, a carved marble fireplace and two full baths, one ensuite. A further third bedroom or study, full size Bosch stackable washer-dryer and spacious hall closet complete this floor.
UPPER DUPLEX
The third and fourth floors of the house comprise the upper duplex and it has quite a bit to brag about as well. The third floor has a full floor loft-like open plan with a large custom kitchen boasting Subzero refrigerator, Bosch 5 burner gas cooktop, convection oven, Bosch dishwasher and a Carrara marble counter. Spacious and airy, the living/dining areas open to a long stone terrace, perfect for summer entertaining or enjoying a morning coffee when the sun comes up in the East. Two decorative marble fireplaces, new oak floors and a large half bath complete this floor.
The staircase to the 4th floor is lit by a large skylight. This floor offers two generous bedrooms, one ensuite with a walk in closet. The main vintage style hallway bath with claw foot tub has a large window overlooking the lovely gardens out back. A study or 3rd bedroom and a large stackable Bosch washer/dryer complete this bright and airy upper duplex.
Four zoned central air conditioning has each floor separately controlled.
Annual Real Estate Taxes: $15,723. Utilities and Security System: $9,480. Insurance: $8,682.
105 Cambridge Place was built in 1873 by Thomas Lambert, who was a partner in the construction and development firm Lambert & Mason. The new buyers will enjoy the original details plus have the opportunity of having a house that is "move-in ready"!
Clinton Hill encapsulates the history of New York. Walt Whitman, a 28-year resident of Brooklyn, had lived for less than a year in the area in 1855, where he completed his masterpiece "Leaves of Grass".
The Clinton Hill Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. The district includes the mansions of Clinton Avenue, built in the 1870s and 1880s. The rest of the historic district is noted for its prominent Italianate and Beaux-Arts rowhouses. The Clinton Hill South Historic District was listed in 1986.
Close to Pratt University, BAM, Brooklyn Flea and Fort Greene Park as well as a supermarket, organic grocery store and post office, it is just blocks away from established shops, bars, cafes and great restaurants in Clinton Hill and Fort Greene.
This home will be delivered vacant.

Quick Profile
Tucked behind the Brooklyn Navy Yard in central Brooklyn is the quiet residential neighborhood of Clinton Hill. Once a strictly working-class neighborhood, Clinton Hill has become known for its elegant brownstones and stately mansions that were built as Manhattanites crossed the East River in the 1920s in search of the supposed health benefits that came from living “on the hill,” which has an elevation of 95 feet. Now you will also find newer luxury apartment and condo buildings interspersed throughout the neighborhood.
The Pratt Institute and St. Joseph College give the area a certain energy that comes from having a college in your town, while it’s leafy streets, some with their original cobblestones, and slower pace attract young families. Millennials and professionals are flocking to Clinton Hill in search of a reasonably priced neighborhood that offers both nightlife and an easy commute to Manhattan. Clinton Hill is a beautiful neighborhood with a suburban feel and firm roots in its past that also offers plenty of urban amenities.
New businesses are showing up in Clinton Hill on a regular basis, adding to the current proliferation of coffee shops, restaurants, and bars. As the population changes, new entertainment and nightlife venues are migrating to the area to meet the demand. Barclays Center is within easy walking distance, offering exciting sporting events and concerts.
