There are plenty of beautiful townhouses in Brooklyn Heights, but perhaps none check off as many boxes in the luxury category as this one at 149 Clinton Street. Asking $10,950,000, the 121-year-old home sits on the corner of Schermerhorn Street, affording it an extra-large lot that can accommodate a two-car garage. Other high-end perks include a brick wine cave, a glass-enclosed stairway as well as an elevator, and a full roof deck. And with five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a rec room, there’s plenty of space for everyone.
The home last sold in 2016 for $4,500,000. The new owners brought on Joseph Vance Architects and Molly Elizabeth Interior Design to reimagine the house, which included adding the two-car stacked garage and creating sleek, contemporary interiors. It now offers 4,459 square feet of space.
On the parlor level, you’ll find the formal dining room and kitchen, between which is a separate wet bar in the hallway. As the listing notes, the dining room is large enough to also serve as a formal living room.
In the basement is a more comfortable family room, as well as the wine cellar, storage, and a laundry room. A secondary, outdoor stairway between the garage and home functions as a patio, complete with an outdoor fireplace.
Back upstairs, the second floor is entirely devoted to the primary bedroom suite. The bedroom sits behind the front bay window, while the bathtub is perfectly situated behind the side bay. There are also a vanity nook, separate water closet, and dressing room.
There are two more bedrooms on the third floor, both with en-suite bathrooms and large walk-in closets.
Technically there are two more bedrooms on the fourth floor, but they’re currently configured as flex spaces, one as a family room (complete with a wet bar hookup), the other as a study.
The roof deck has been fully clad in artificial turf. There are an outdoor kitchen and separate zones for dining and lounging.
