About this House

40 FEET OF FRONTAGE at 70-72 State Street in Brooklyn Heights is on a picturesque tree-lined block between Hicks Street and Garden Place. This one-of-a-kind property currently offers a completely renovated five-story townhouse, a large two car GARAGE with a cellar, and a 40 foot landscaped garden with a fountain. You can move right in as it is, or take advantage of numerous possibilities (with DOB approval) such as adding 20 additional feet to the width of the current house to create your own grand mansion, add a floor or two to the garage to create a guest suite or additional rental income, or demolish the garage and build another house on the existing portion of the property where the garage is now. The possibilities are only limited to your imagination. Up the stoop and through the door you will enter into the elegant parlor floor where you'll be greeted by a gracious front room with a wood-burning fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows that bathes the room in light. The living room flows into the large dining room which comfortably seats 16 or more. A state-of-the-art open kitchen featuring a 6 burner Wolf Stove, double door Sub-Zero refrigerator, wine cooler, custom designed cabinetry and granite counter-tops will please the most discerning chef. The dining room opens out to a large deck and the magnificent garden below. The 40 foot landscaped garden offers two levels of beautifully planted shrubs, trees, roses, and ground cover that keep it green all year long. The sound of water in the fountain only adds to its serenity. The third floor of the home is used as a sumptuous master suite and offers a large front sitting room with a walk-in closet - and a bedroom in the rear. The master bedroom has an en-suite marble bath. The fourth floor features a front and rear bedroom, office with custom built-ins (could be 3rd bedroom), and a new hall bath with shower. The fifth floor has a front and rear bedroom, laundry rm, and a renovated hall bath. A completely renovated floor-thru apartment is entered under the stoop-ideal for a guest suite or high-end rental. The layout features a front bedroom with a large walk-in closet, a hall bath, new kitchen, and a living room with a working fireplace and a dining el. Sliding glass doors lead out to the garden. The cellar houses the mechanicals. The over-sized garage is entered from outside and easily accommodates 2 large cars plus plenty of storage behind and below.
