Welcome to a magical, sun drenched four-story mid-19th century townhouse in the heart of Brooklyn Heights! This exquisite five bedroom, four bathroom home has been thoughtfully renovated and feels like an idyllic country home. The jaw-dropping parlor floor is one of a kind - with a perfect open kitchen in the front, a gracious dining room, and an enormous living room extension featuring a brick fireplace, and a spectacular full-room glass conservatory ceiling. This wonderful living/entertaining space is filled with natural light all day long. French doors from this stunning room open to a classic tea porch and a lovely garden below. The landscaped garden features a brick patio and irrigation system with a flowering dogwood, large maple tree and is lined on three sides with climbing roses. Parlor floor details include original wide plank floors, and exposed brick and beams. The south facing kitchen has a wood burning fireplace, white Carrara marble counters and island, glass fronted cabinets, integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator, and an elegant white Lacanche 5 burner range with two ovens.<br><br>One flight up the windowed staircase are two bright bedrooms and two modern baths (one en-suite) with walk-in showers and concrete floors. The primary and fourth bedrooms are on the top floor - both bathed in sunlight -- and the primary bathroom is complete with a marble double vanity from Urban Archaeology and Waterworks sinks and faucets. The top floor skylight over the stairs brings even more light into the house. The garden floor offers a fifth bedroom, a cozy media room, and a huge extension with floor to ceiling windows and garden access, currently used as a home gym. Laundry, extra storage, and a full bathroom are also on this floor.<br><br>The basement houses the home's well-maintained mechanicals, and tons of extra storage space. The 2007 renovation of this special home included all new windows and doors, new plumbing and electric service, and multizone central air conditioning. The living room and garden floor extension also feature radiant heat. <br><br>This truly special home is perfectly located on a lovely Brooklyn Heights block, moments from the fantastic shopping and restaurants on Atlantic Avenue, Court and Smith Street, and convenient to all major subway lines.
