About This Property
35 Remsen Street is the true epitome of a Brooklyn trophy property.
Tucked away on a picturesque and quiet waterfront cul-de-sac in
prime Brooklyn Heights, its sheer scale and museum-quality period
details await a new owner to steward this Grand Dame into the 21st
Century. Sitting majestically near the corner of Remsen St. and
Montague Terrace at 25' wide, 5-stories, and over 60' deep on a
100' lot, this is a unique opportunity for its new owner to create
a masterpiece that includes an elevator with absolutely no
compromises to the living spaces. Unlike other 25' wide homes that
are not built this deep, be assured that at 35 Remsen, an elevator
won't interfere with the dramatic scale of the rooms. Instead, it
will give you the opportunity to maintain the majestic scale while
also adding the convenience of an elevator to make full use of all
5 floors. There is even the possibility of adding an accessible
roofdeck with unrivaled views of both NY harbor and lower Manhattan
without the tourists and traffic of being on a Promenade block. A
stunning example of Romanesque Revival architecture, this home is
replete with finely crafted historic details throughout, the
perfect backdrop for a modern, classic, or transitional aesthetic,
but with the warmth that only comes through in a turn-of-the
century property. Defined by graceful and oversized archways and
doors, soaring ceilings, stunning fretwork, stained glass transoms,
plaster moldings and ceiling medallions, hand-carved marble and
wood mantles, original brass light fixtures, inlaid wood floors and
pocket shutters. Most notable is a sweeping staircase with a
hand-carved newel post and ornate burled mahogany wainscoting
running from the parlor all the way to the 3rd floor, enveloping
the staircase in old-world luxury. Enter up a graceful and wide
stoop into the awe-inspiring triple parlor where you will be
greeted with not one, but two perfectly preserved oversized Pier
mirrors with benches. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the front
parlor, perfect for your living room, while the back parlor,
defined by stunning stained-glass windows, makes the perfect open
kitchen while still maintaining a central parlor for formal dining.
This floor is so enormous and loft-like that there is even space
for both a butler's pantry with a walkout to the charming garden,
and a spacious powder room. Owned for decades by a doctor and his
family, the entire garden level of this home has the unique zoning
overlay to be either an office OR residential space. What could be
better than the opportunity to legally bring your staff and run a
business in such a divine and convenient neighborhood as Brooklyn
Heights? But of course, if you don't need to work from home, this
floor also allows the opportunity to include a mudroom, guest room,
nanny suite, art studio and playroom to the already spacious upper
four floors. Head to the third floor where three sizable bedrooms
await, another impressive feat of scale where two bathrooms could
also comfortably fit. The fourth and fifth floors are now used as a
duplex apartment and include a kitchen on the fourth floor plus two
bedrooms and a bath, easily converted back into three bedrooms and
two baths. Distinguished by amazing light flooding in through
skylights, the fifth-floor houses two additional bedrooms, a
laundry room, a bathroom, and a second living room. This floor is
easily converted into three more bedrooms and two additional baths.
Ceiling heights are extraordinary on every single floor of this
property and the possibilities are endless for the discerning buyer
looking for an extraordinary property on one of the most discrete
yet convenient and significant blocks in all of Brooklyn. Enjoy a
dazzling array of amenities in every direction including public and
private schools, award-winning restaurants and shops, parking
garages, dog parks, and of course, Brooklyn Bridge Park and the
Promenade. Bring your architect and create the masterpiece of your
dreams.
