Stretching only 5 short blocks and located within Clinton Hill’s Historic District, St. James Place is an idyllic street showcasing a variety of buildings including brownstones, mansions, row houses and townhomes. 164 St. James Place, a stately brownstone, has recently undergone a two year gut renovation and historic restoration. Standing three stories and spanning nearly 1,700 square feet, this 3 bedroom home with a gorgeous finished roof deck is an idealistic Brooklyn residence. Offering a fully restored facade, brand new windows, new mechanicals and systems throughout and a gorgeous interior renovation with stylish finishes and fixtures, 164 St. James Place is a rare opportunity to rent a turnkey, landmarked Brooklyn brownstone.

Major curb appeal sets the tone for this one of a kind renovation with a newly restored facade, rebuilt front stoop, restored original doors and a new wrought iron gate. Up the stoop, into the vestibule and through double doors, the parlor level delivers all the drama one desires in a historic brownstone. Flooded with natural light from east and west exposures, defining features of the parlor include white oak herringbone floors, 10 ft. ceilings, a custom staircase with black matte spindles and gorgeous curve detail, a rear wall of casement glass doors that open onto a terrace, a wood burning fireplace and a brand new kitchen. The kitchen features custom cabinetry with Buster & Punch hardware, Sub Zero refrigerator/freezer and Bertazzoni range and Cielo quartzite countertops and backsplash. The front of the parlor features the main living room of the home and includes a windowed nook with original moldings and arches.

Up one level is the full floor primary suite. A large sleeping area overlooking the newly renovated garden, exclusive to the lower rental unit, gets beautiful afternoon light and is pindrop quiet. There are two large closets off of the landing which lead to a 11'4" x 6'9" walk-in closet, which opens into a stunner of a primary bathroom. Spanning the full width of the house, this retreat features two windows overlooking a mature tree, a beautiful five fixture configuration with a massive walk-in shower, deep soaking tub, custom double vanity and radiant heat floors. Finishes and fixtures include Blue de Savoie marble counters, window detail and tub surround, Baldwin and Phylrich unlacquered brass plumbing fixtures, antique sconces, Walker Zanger floor tiles and a forest green Bedrosian wall and shower tile.

On the top floor are two large bedrooms which share a full bath featuring a soaking tub + shower combo clad in natural white colored clé tiles and matte white Jaclo hardware. There are also five custom closets on this level plus a separate laundry closet with the option to stack or install appliances side by side.

Additional features of 164 St. James Place includes central ac and heat with distinct zones, and a finished roof deck with ample space for a variety of furniture.
