Description

29 Lefferts Place | Clinton Hill Elegance Meets Modern Luxury

Welcome to 29 Lefferts Place — a grand, light-filled two-family townhouse offering over 5,000 square feet of refined interior living, a lush 37-foot private garden, and an exceptionally rare, two-story garage accessed via a semi-private driveway. Thoughtfully reimagined, this 21.75’-wide home spans five expansive levels and features six spacious bedrooms, four full and two half baths, and a versatile, design-forward layout ideal for contemporary living.

Upon entering the parlor level, you are immediately greeted by 11'6" soaring ceilings, striking moldings, and exquisite White Oak herringbone flooring. Anchoring the formal living room is a stately marble mantel wood-burning fireplace, creating an elegant focal point for the sun-drenched space. The parlor flows seamlessly into the rear kitchen — a true chef’s haven outfitted with custom inset cabinetry, an integrated Subzero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, Sharp microwave drawer, six-burner Wolf range, and a Summit wine refrigerator. Oversized windows bathe the kitchen in natural light and offer direct access to a full-width deck overlooking the manicured garden.

The upper levels are designed for flexibility and privacy, offering five bedrooms and multiple spa-like bathrooms, along with abundant closets and a full laundry closet. The full-floor primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a serene rear-facing bedroom, walk-in closet, and a luxurious en-suite bath complete with Rhol fixtures, a double vanity, soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed shower. The top floor includes additional spacious bedrooms and access to the roof — a blank canvas ready for your customization, with skyline views of Brooklyn and beyond.

The garden level offers a second open-plan living/dining area, a full guest suite, and a stylishly appointed full bathroom. Step outside to your private urban oasis — a backyard finished with turf and Bluestone pavers, ideal for outdoor entertaining and year-round enjoyment. The finished cellar provides a large recreation space, powder room, and mechanicals — perfect for a home gym, playroom, or flexible bonus area. Adding even more versatility, the climate-controlled two-story garage includes a finished upper level, ideal as a home office, studio, or creative workspace. Modern comforts abound, including zoned central AC and an integrated Bluetooth sound system throughout the home.

Situated on a quiet, tree-lined block in the heart of Clinton Hill, 29 Lefferts Place offers the best of Brooklyn living—acclaimed dining, cozy cafes, lush green spaces, and convenient transportation. Nearby favorites include Sisters, Locanda Vini & Olii, Otway, and Emily. A rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready, design-driven townhouse with space, style, and substance.
