Property Description for 24 Remsen Street, 1

Bespoke 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath duplex condominium in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. Welcome home to Unit 1 at 24 Remsen Street! The Townhouse on Remsen is a boutique condominium building with only 4 units. Enjoy Townhouse living with the ease of the low property maintenance of a condominium. Architectural Digest featured 24 Remsen Street on its Architectural walking tours with Nick Potts in January of 2022. “Beaux Arts style houses are something that you don't see a whole lot of in Brooklyn Heights.” Distinction is key for 24 Remsen Street in its architectural exterior Beaux Arts style and its modernized interiors. 24 Remsen Street is situated on a beautiful tree-lined street in the heart of the Brooklyn Heights historic district. The cul de sac at the end of Remsen Street is a fantastic place to end your day, ride the scooters and watch the sunset. The opening for the Brooklyn Heights promenade is truly just steps away. Great for morning runs to Brooklyn Bridge Park or even a stroll to take in the stunning downtown views. Unit 1 is expansive at 78ft long and 22ft wide with 15 windows and 3 exterior exposures; north, south and west exposures allow in natural light all day long. The 686 sqft rear and side garden allows for private, and quiet, outdoor living at its best. Upon entering Unit 1, you are welcomed by an alcove oasis perfect for the drop-off point to leave everything from the outside behind. Hang your coat in the hall closet and freshen up in the half bath nearby. Take pause when you enter the living space. The dramatic 13ft ceilings soar high above the parlor level. The dining room's uniquely faceted half octogonal shape lends itself to a grand dining experience. Hosting is a breeze in this open layout. Seating at the kitchen's granite peninsula is great for guest's enjoyment as you cook. The custom kitchen is outfitted with everything an aspirational chef needs: Viking range and vented hood, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, custom wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and a walk-in pantry. Relax in the living room while curling up next to a wood burning fire and enjoy the winter peek-a-boo view of the harbor. No detail has been overlooked in this well organized and meticulously designed space. Just down the hall is the serene hotel-style primary bedroom suite; vast and with downtown views. Enter into the spacious walk-through closet that leads you to the primary bathroom. Endowed with Carrera marble, double vanity, glass enclosed spa shower and deep soaking tub to relax and unwind in. Downstairs on the garden level are three bedrooms. Pictured currently as two bedrooms, with one guest bedroom/playroom. Carrera marbled bathroom complete with soaking tub is nearby for easy bath-time accessibility. In the hallway is an enclosed laundry room and secretly tucked away is a reading nook. The back door entrance is a great spot for a “mud room.” Since you can enter from the garden it's a great location for disrobing jackets, shoes and sporting items. The garden is a quiet refuge for gatherings and bbq's. Raised brick planters line the yard. Imagine having your own organic vegetable garden for a true farm-to-table experience for your guests. The side gate to your private backyard is an ideal entrance for strollers, scooters, and welcoming visitors. Owners may install a ramp on the backyard stairs for ease of access for wagons, bikes and wheelchairs. Luxurious finishes, hardwood floors throughout, Marvin windows, central air, ample closets, sound attenuation between floors and walls include many of Unit 1's features. Additionally, Unit 1 has a dedicated private storage unit located in the cellar alongside access to the common bicycle room. 24 Remsen is perpendicular to Montague Terrace so it's just one small black away to Montague Street and all it's conveniences. Close proximity to grocery stores, local restaurants, merchants, Citibikes and 2/3/4/5/A/C/F/R trains make this home centrally located. Shown by private appointment only.

Brooklyn Heights | Brooklyn

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.
