It is hard to miss the imposing stone edifice of this circa 1850 Gothic Church, regally situated in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. Home to 10 unique residences, Apartment #1 is arguably the most desirable of all the units, as it has its own private entrance, making this duplex feel more like a townhouse. The twin oak doors open into a gracious entry hall where architectural detail abounds. To the right, a stone wall abuts the entrance to the the living room, straight ahead a door opens into a spacious powder room/laundry with custom Cole & Son wallpaper and complete with a Bosch stack-able washer/dryer. Forward and around to the left you see a dramatic open curved staircase leading to the second level. On to the living room, you discover a grand room that is a combination living/dining featuring three dramatic architectural elements...a slate framed wood burning fireplace, an Immense stained glass window and an imposing floor to ceiling library wall. The window, facing west, illuminates the space with soft jewel tones, creating a unique sense of calm and beauty. The library wall creates a dramatic backdrop at the opposite end of the room. The fireplace wall pulls the living dining together as one great space. Truly unique,,,truly special!
Off the living room is a bright, sunny, windowed galley kitchen with scraped, wide plank oak flooring and first-rate appliances. The winding staircase, with its curved mahogany rail and wide polished treads, ascends past more illuminated jeweled glass to the second level. There you find a balcony area over the staircase, which has been turned into a home office. The two level primary suite, (once the church's choir loft), features the most striking architectural element of the entire home: a great Gothic window which extends from the floor and arches dramatically to the ceiling above. The primary bedroom features three large closets and an en-suite bath with a hint of original hand hewn wood structure and all decked out in custom imported Moroccan tile. A second bedroom features a double height ceiling with jeweled windows atop, large closets and an en-suite bath. Central air throughout.
Located in the heart of Brooklyn Heights close to subways, the top schools, shopping, dining, the Promenade, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and a farmer's market down the block - 99 Clinton offers convenient access to everything The Heights has to offer, while also being just minutes away from Downtown Brooklyn.
