14 College Place

This impeccably renovated, perfectly located, Brooklyn Heights carriage house very well may satisfy all of your wants and needs. Complete with its own private garage, this home is an extraordinary blend of drama and comfort and offers the ultimate in privacy and security.

The living areas of the home are oversized with soaring ceilings and overlook a bucolic garden through custom steel casement window walls. A gut renovation by architects Delson or Sherman was completed in 2014 with impeccable attention to detail as well as a desire to maximize functionality. Extraordinarily quiet, bathed in sunlight, filled with refined organic materials, this house is a calming oasis, yet the proportions are beyond impressive.

Enter this home off of dead end, bucolic College Place into an entry gallery with soaring ceilings, or from your private garage directly into a perfectly fit out mud room and coat closet with a pocket door to tuck it all away. The entry gallery is situated under the home’s enormous central skylight, flanked from above by a breathtaking 3 story Lindsey Adelman light fixture, extending through the home’s architectural stair. The home’s great room sits at the rear of the house looking onto the garden through a custom steel window wall. A state of the art kitchen comes complete with stone countertops, a six-burner range and copious custom cabinetry. A sitting and dining room that feels at once cozy and quaint with it’s beautiful gas fireplace and refined organic materials, but also truly grand in scale – a 25’ wide room with 14’ ceilings.

The living room is just above, immense but so comfortable, with a built in, lushly cushioned bench along the steel window wall, beautiful marble fireplace mantel with a TV ingeniously built into the mirror above. Entertain in extraordinary style or cozy up by the fire for a movie. Overlooking College Place, on this floor, are two spacious bedrooms, one with ensuite bath and one served by the hallway bathroom. Also, a suburban-worthy laundry room.

On the top floor of the house you’ll enter an absolute urban oasis. The serene master bedroom overlooks one of the two decks on this level, and also showcases a walk in closet that dreams are made of. Oyster hued lacquer cabinetry and perfectly conceived lighting leading at one end to the rear deck and at the other to a white hued five-piece master bathroom. Opposite the bedroom, and leading to the front terrace, is an office and den. Both of these outdoor spaces are utterly calming and feature IPE decking, lighting, power, and water.

The cellar of the home is finished with a home gym, huge cedar closet, additional guest or living space and a full bathroom.

The home has all modern conveniences that one would expect of a house of this caliber such as radiant heating in all bathrooms, multizone climate control including radiator heating, central vacuum, motorized shades and custom drapes throughout. Some lighting fixtures excluded from sale.

This home is blocks from transportation and some of the city’s best private schools, The Brooklyn Heights promenade, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and myriad shopping and dining.
