37 Remsen Street

Just off the Promenade on this stunning block in the heart of Brooklyn Heights stands this venerable 25-foot-wide 5-story brownstone built in the Italianate style. Currently used as a one family residence (the legal certificate of occupancy is a two family) this home offers approximately 7,000 square feet with eight bedrooms and eight full baths and one half bath. This regal residence possesses all the charm of yesteryear with updated mechanicals/systems throughout.

Enter this home through the wide central foyer on the parlor level, complete with fanlight window, stunning moldings/wood paneled chair rails and impressive 13 foot ceilings, to glorious formal living and dining rooms with etched pocket doors and beautiful views of a tree-lined street on the south side and through to the dining room with large bay window overlooking the garden. A generous country kitchen with terracotta tile and half bath is also located on this floor. Off the kitchen is a sizable walled garden with lovely patio and plantings.

The upper three floors of the house provide six bedrooms and five baths (most have been updated/renovated), office and a large central family/media room. There is central air conditioning on all but the top/fifth floor.

The garden level provides an additional two bedrooms with two renovated baths and a den/office. French doors lead to the garden. The lower/basement level has been excavated and provides an enormous amount of extra space with a ceiling height of approximately 8 feet. This space currently consists of a gym, laundry room, full bath and mechanical room with ample space for media room or wine cellar.
