Property Description for 185 Clinton Ave, 15-E
This remarkable top-floor home floats above the historic, tree-lined streets of Clinton Hill, Brooklyn on the border with Fort Greene. 15E is a thoughtfully designed 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment, but it offers a versatile layout - many similar units in the building have successfully converted to a two-bedroom.
There are five new oversized windows with eastern and southern exposures, which not only bring in brilliant light, but also provide breathtaking views of Brooklyn. The expansive living room has a picture window and a a built in Murphy bed to offer guests. Adjacent to the living room, you'll find a separate dining area large enough to host 6-8 for dinner. Right off the dining room is the windowed kitchen, which includes a dishwasher. The king-size bedroom is peaceful, and large enough to accommodate a sitting/reading area or work-zone. The bathroom is tastefully designed and features the original pre-war floor tile. Finally, you'll find a total of 6 closets for tons of storage and the original oak flooring throughout.

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.
