CONTRACT SIGNED
Restored Mansion Condo
Exceptional two bedroom, one and a half bath townhouse Condo on tree-lined, landmarked Clinton Avenue. Built in 1882 by architect George Morse for Abraham Gould Jennings whose Laceworks Factory was nearby, the house has been characterized as “neo-grec” by architectural historians.

The five story, four family house was converted to condos in 2002 and this is the first re-sale in the building. The property is truly unique with its large front garden and beautiful decorative facade, particularly the floral panels in the center of the two bay windows.

Enter the building via a grand, period detailed staircase and continue up to the third floor. The apartment is approximately 1400 square feet with a wonderfully spacious layout, three exposures and period detail throughout. It features a windowed kitchen and formal dining room with original stained glass window and built in cabinets and bookshelves at the rear, a middle living room with original wood mantel fireplace, and a hallway leading to the bedrooms at the front. There is a half bath and washer dryer closet off the living room and a master bath with original detail and wainscoting next to the extra large master bedroom. There is also common storage in the basement.

This home, in the fashionable Clinton Hill Historic District is close to Fort Greene Park, the A/C/G trains, the Brooklyn Flea and Dekalb Restaurant Row. It has been Brownstoner House of the Day and, for those in the know, it is the Halloween Headquarters in Clinton Hill! With low common charges and taxes as well, this one won’t last.
