In one of the Charming Downtown Neighborhoods Circa 1880 residence has it all- historic details such as pocket doors, inlaid wood flooring, etched glass doors, moldings, original shutters and ornate marble fireplaces as well as modern comforts, such as central air conditioning, top of the line appliances, built-ins throughout and a two story extension. The property has an additional 4,000 square feet of FAR and can be extended as it is on a double lot that is nearly 170 feet deep with the townhouse on Warren Street and the terracotta roofed two-car garage on Verandah Place. Zoned for PS29 and a short walk to Montessori, Packer, Saint Anne’s and Friends. If you don’t know the gem that is Cobble Hill- this property is on a tree-lined brownstone block yet around the corner from the best café, restaurants, wine store, cheese shop, butcher, bakery and one block to the F train and is often likened to living in Europe.
