Property Description for 16 Strong Place

OPEN HOUSES BY APPT ONLY. 16 Strong Place offers a rare opportunity to acquire an historic 17-foot-wide brownstone on one of Cobble Hill’s most coveted and picturesque blocks. Built in 1872 and currently configured as a four-family residence in very good condition, this historic townhouse provides exceptional flexibility for its next chapter. It can be thoughtfully reimagined as a gracious single-family home, converted into a bespoke owner’s triplex with an income-producing garden floor apartment, or maintained as a multi-family investment. Bring your architect and imagination to unlock its full potential. Rich in original architectural detail, the home features soaring ceilings — including approximately 11-foot ceilings on the parlor level — generous proportions throughout, a deep private garden, and a full basement. The garden level includes a 13-foot extension, naturally lending itself to the addition of a terrace off the parlor floor as part of a future redesign. With classic brownstone character and exceptional underlying bones, the property presents a compelling canvas for transformation now, or in the future. Strong Place is widely regarded as one of the neighborhood’s most treasured blocks, admired for its tree-lined setting and historic residential charm. A playground at the end of the street offers a place for kids to run, and beloved local boutiques, cafés, and restaurants offer respite to adults. Live on a quiet street while still having easy access to the conveniences of Court and Smith Street and the F and G subway lines. 16 Strong Place represents a distinguished opportunity to create a custom residence in the heart of Cobble Hill. Will be delivered vacant.

Cobble Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

The neighborhood now known as Cobble Hill was originally settled by Dutch farmers in the mid-1600s. Tucked along the East River, in the heart of Brooklyn, Cobble Hill is known for its welcoming, leafy streets, independent mom-and-pop shops, and 19th century brownstones.

Most of Cobble Hill lies within an historic landmark district, and building heights are restricted to 50 feet, which helps maintain its 19th century atmosphere. Building owners will often split the use of their four- or five-story buildings, occupying several of the top floors and renting out the ground floor as apartments or, conversely, occupying one or more of the lower floors and renting out the top floors. New construction and alterations to existing buildings in the historic district require approval by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, which helps maintain the historic character of the Cobble Hill neighborhood.

Although most housing in Cobble Hill consists of traditional brownstones and brick townhouses,, you will also find churches that have been converted to condos, carriage houses that have become luxury apartments and Victorian school houses that have been converted into lofts.

Court Street and Atlantic Avenue are the main commercial streets in the neighborhood. You will find popular Middle Eastern restaurants on Atlantic Avenue. Court Street is home to casual restaurants, many with outdoor seating, relaxed cafes and hip bars.

Many young professionals and families live in the brownstones, townhouses, and single-family homes that line the leafy streets. Cobble Hill is a great place to live if you work on Wall Street, as you can walk over the Brooklyn Bridge to work.
