Description
Built in the 1850's, this massive federal style brick townhouse underwent a complete renovation in 2010 that showcases its rare 22' x 60' proportions on four floors through the lens of a true mid-century aficionado with a love of the old & new. Inspired by the mid-century genius of Philip Lloyd Powell, this home is an embodiment of the elegant minimalism of the Mad Men era. Enjoy 5280 SF over four floors, 7 bedrooms, 4 full baths, 2 powder rooms, a stunning roofdeck with Manhattan views, a magnificent Japanese-inspired garden, and a full cellar. Rarely does a home come to market in Brooklyn Heights that offers the attention to design & sheer scale of 52 Sidney Place. Situated on everyone's favorite "Place", known for its tree-lined beauty & architectural grandeur, yet in the middle of the best amenities including Atlantic Ave., Court and Montague Streets, BK Bridge Park, multiple public & private schools, and every subway line.
A distinguished & historic brick facade showcases oversized blackened steel casement windows that reference its initial 1962 renovation, while a magnificent transformation of the interior brings you into the 21st century with every modern comfort you could desire. Enjoy a Henry-Built kitchen with professional appliances, 9-zone heating & cooling system, radiant-heated floors, and an all-new steel superstructure, along with an impressive sculptural steel and walnut staircase that offers a timeless nod to the hand-crafted mid-century furniture of the 1960's. A cohesive aesthetic infuses every aspect of this spacious & fashionable home, from the live-edge black walnut window sills and vanities, to the built-in millwork closets & bookshelves, marble fireplace surround, stylish bar, sunken living room, and poured concrete and walnut floors. Whether you prefer the super stylish design of the 60's, or just the clean, practical and minimal design style of today's beloved Scandinavian interiors, this is a treasure that offers warmth and delights on every floor.
Envisioned for the ease of today's lifestyle, the main living floor includes a convenient ground floor entrance with wonderful street privacy but none of the headaches of having to drag a stroller or groceries up a high stoop entry. Enter past a lush manicured front garden into an infinitely practical mudroom. The extra-deep main floor was revamped with the inclusion of soaring ceilings, an incredible chef's kitchen in the middle, a formal dining room in front, and a dramatic sunken living room in back easily accessible to the verdant private garden. The walnut and matte lacquer Henry-Built kitchen offers every feature desired by today's families, including a 6-burner gas Miele range, two Miele dishwashers, 42" Sub Zero fridge, double sink, wine fridge, and stunning honed Carrara marble countertops and backsplash. Enjoy ample pantry space and a massive prep island as well. A built-in bar complements the sunken living room, making it the perfect entertaining space.
The next level offers a Primary suite of epic proportions with a 5-piece primary suite. A second bedroom on this floor has a charming street view and a powder room, making it a great suite or home-office. Head up to the third floor where three additional bedrooms await, plus an outfitted laundry room with vented laundry units and lots of storage. Two full bathrooms on this floor, including one with a soaking tub & shower, make it the perfect kids' floor that also includes a guest room or nanny suite. The epic top floor is a loft-like space with extra high-ceilings and a large sklylight. Two spacious bedrooms on this floor, plus a gallery area, full bath and kitchenette, make this unbeatable as a multipurpose space that could include a gym, media room, guest space, or an entertaining extension to the roofdeck.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to indulge your Mid-Century dreams in a classic Brooklyn townhouse on a notably quiet, convenient and picturesque block.
