59 Lefferts Place, GLT

AVAILABLE FURNISHED FOR $9,375/MONTH

Some apartments are renovated. This one was designed.

Renovated cellar-to-roof in 2024 by Barker Associates Architecture Office (BAAO), the house was finished to a standard rarely seen in a rental. GLT shares every material, detail, and system of the owners' residence above, with no rental-grade compromises anywhere.
Behind the iron fence and carved brownstone facade, on one of Clinton Hill's most beautiful tree-lined blocks, GLT offers approximately 950 square feet of calm, beautifully considered space, plus a private terrace of over 250 square feet with its own cold plunge. With only two residences in the house, a private entrance, and no shared hallways or lobby, GLT offers a rare kind of privacy: townhouse living, without the townhouse upkeep.
You arrive through your own private foyer, set with a checkerboard of veined and black marble, with brass sconces and classic millwork. It's the first sign of the level of detail throughout.

The 20'5" x 18'8" living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace wrapped in reeded plaster, flanked by curved built-in shelving and topped by a softly sculpted tray ceiling. Film nights are built in, with a ceiling-mounted projector, a drop-down screen, and a state-of-the-art sound system hidden in the ceiling. At the far end, a full-width folding glass wall disappears entirely, opening the room onto the terrace. Out there, you'll find bluestone underfoot, ivy-covered brick, and a cold plunge for year-round recovery.

The kitchen runs along a single elegant wall: rift-cut oak cabinetry, a boldly veined stone counter and full-height backsplash, a brushed-brass faucet, a Miele oven, induction cooking, a dishwasher, and fully integrated refrigeration.
A gallery hall lined with flush-panel closets and in-unit laundry leads to the 13' x 16'9" bedroom. It easily fits a king, and it faces the tree-lined street through original arched iron window grilles. The bath is a showpiece, with hand-glazed tile, a sculptural solid-stone sink, matte black wall-mounted fixtures, and a penny-round floor.

The home is fully electric, with hydronic heat, multi-zone central air, and rooftop solar. Wi-Fi on its own private network, water, and ADT alarm monitoring are all included; the tenant pays only their separately metered Con Edison. Moments from the C and S trains at Franklin Avenue, and from Clinton Hill's best cafés and restaurants.

At nearly 1,000 square feet with a private terrace and cold plunge, a wood-burning fireplace, and finishes you won't find in any rental building, GLT delivers more than most two-bedrooms in the neighborhood.
