Bright and open duplex ideally situated on the top floor of The Arches of Cobble Hill, a historical gem. This two-bedroom, 2.5-bath condo includes a private terrace off the second-floor bedroom, creating a picturesque retreat. The space is rich with exceptional details, including a palatial 18-foot cathedral ceiling in the living area and striking oversized south-facing arched windows that enhance the ambiance. Refinished hardwood white oak floors, exposed beams, custom lighting, a spacious storage attic, and central air conditioning and heating complete this exquisite package. The welcoming foyer leads into a spacious living and dining area. The modern kitchen is outfitted with high-end Wolf and Bosch stainless steel appliances, exquisite marble countertops, and an expansive custom-crafted lacquered walk-in pantry. On the same floor, the serene primary bedroom suite features a walk-in closet and a lavish bathroom equipped with dual sinks, limestone tiles, a glass shower, and a Zuma soaking tub for ultimate relaxation. Further along the corridor, there is a washer/dryer and powder room, adding extra convenience to this unique home that truly has it all. An elegant, minimally designed staircase ascends to a balcony that overlooks the living room, leading to the brightly lit second bedroom. This bedroom boasts an en suite bathroom, walk-in closet, and sliding glass doors along one wall, which open onto a spacious terrace. This tailor-made outdoor space is equipped with Ipe decking, enjoys southern exposure, and includes a spigot for ease of maintenance and irrigation of flowers and plants-no green thumb necessary! Also on the top floor is a specially prized storage attic that spans the length of the apartment, providing the convenience of having on-site space to keep belongings on hand yet out of sight. Positioned quietly in the center of the building, the unit enjoys southern exposures, offering peaceful and breathtaking views of the treetops of the beautifully landscaped garden below and the iconic bell tower above. This distinctive home is nestled within The Arches at Cobble Hill, an architectural gem with a storied past as St. Peter's Church and Academy since its inception in 1858, later transformed into condominiums in 2005. The building's amenities enhance the living experience, offering a resident super, elevator, common courtyard for outdoor enjoyment, and a package room for secure deliveries. Strategically located, this home is mere minutes away from the vibrant shopping and culinary offerings of Smith and Court Streets, as well as Atlantic Avenue. It's also a short walk from the expansive greenery of Van Voorhees (tennis, anyone?) and Brooklyn Bridge Parks, which offer ferry service to Manhattan. Multiple subway lines, including the F, G, A, C, 2, 3, 4, 5, and R, are conveniently nearby, ensuring easy transportation access. The property is pet-friendly and currently zoned for P.S. 29.

Cobble Hill is a small, laid-back neighborhood comprising 40 blocks in northwest Brooklyn. It offers easy access to the water and sits adjacent to Brooklyn Heights, Boerum Hill, and Carroll Gardens. Most of the action takes place on Court Street, the community’s main artery lined with hip cafes, restaurants and boutiques. The neighborhood was named after a conically shaped hill located at the present-day intersection of Atlantic Avenue, Pacific Street and Court Street. The incline was known as 'Ponkiesbergh' to early Dutch settlers, which directly translates to “Cobble Hill.” Today, Cobble Hill is considered the wealthiest area in Brooklyn, and is often listed alongside upscale Manhattan communities like the Upper East Side and Soho as one of the most desirable locations in the city. Thanks to its well-preserved 19th-century architecture, pristine brownstones and stunning row houses, Cobble Hill has been designated as a historic district.
