A rare, renovated Brooklyn Heights classic, this pre-war 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is located on one of the most coveted blocks in the neighborhood.  Original architectural details abound in this light-filled apartment, including gorgeous herringbone pattern hardwood floors, lovely mouldings and high ceilings throughout, along with modern amenities such as an open chef’s kitchen and a laundry room with washer and vented dryer.  The apartment offers its next owners a level of comfort and gracious living that is exceptional.

The ideal layout features an open and bright living room with 10-foot ceilings and large sun-filled windows looking onto the treetops of Pierrepont Street.  With almost 40 feet of south facing windows, the apartment is a light-filled oasis.  A wide archway with concealed original glass pocket doors opens to a large formal dining room, perfect for family dinners or grand entertaining.  The open and sleek modern chef’s kitchen features granite counters, a Viking range, Thermador ovens, Sub-Zero refrigerator and Miele dishwasher, as well as tile floors and extensive Poggenpohl cabinetry. Another archway with pocket doors leads from the dining room to a beautiful study or den, with four large windows, off of which the third bedroom is tucked away. Returning to the living room, a central hall boasts a double-depth coat closet and leads to the quiet master bedroom with its ensuite marble bathroom.  A large second bedroom has two generously sized closets, while across the hall are the second full bathroom and the laundry room.

61 Pierrepont is one of Brooklyn Heights’ most desirable pre-war cooperatives, perfectly located on one of the neighborhood’s most beautiful, tree-lined blocks.  An elegant marble and stained glass entrance lobby welcomes residents and visitors.  The building offers a common roof deck with river and city views, a live-in super, private storage and bike-storage.

This ideal location is within moments of a wealth of shopping and restaurant options, and has Brooklyn’s best transportation access, with several major train lines in the immediate vicinity.  All the amenities of Brooklyn Bridge Park, Dumbo, Atlantic Avenue and the surrounding neighborhoods of Cobble Hill and Boerum Hill are also in close proximity.  At the end of the street just a minute away is the stunning Brooklyn Heights Promenade, with its panoramic views of downtown Manhattan and the harbor, and adjacent for children is the wonderful Pierrepont Playground.
