Hii ni fursa adimu ya kuishi katika nyumba ya mjini ya matofali yenye upana wa karibu futi 23, iliyo kwenye sehemu nzuri ya mtaa inayoangalia bustani, ikiwa na vipengele mbalimbali vya kihistoria, maeneo matatu ya nje yenye mwanga wa jua, chumba cha kuvutia cha jua kwenye ghorofa ya tatu, na maegesho ya kibinafsi. Iliyojengwa mwaka 1849 na John Greacen kwa mtindo wa mpito unaochanganya vipengele vya usanifu wa Greek Revival na Italianate, nyumba ya 247 Clinton Street bado ina cornice yake ya awali, portico, vizingiti vya madirisha, muundo wa mlango wa kuingilia, pamoja na maelezo mengine mengi ya usanifu.

Ikiwa kwenye kona ya Verandah Place, upande wa pili wa Cobble Hill Park, 247 Clinton Street inaangalia ndani na juu ya taji la miti lenye majani ya bustani hiyo. Kwa sasa ikiwa imepangwa kuwa nyumba yenye vyumba vitatu vya kuishi juu ya nyumba ya bustani, nyumba hii bado ina uwiano wake wa kupendeza, tabia ya usanifu, na roho ya muundo wake wa awali wa nyumba ya familia moja. Nyumba hiyo ina mtiririko mzuri kupitia mfululizo wa nafasi zilizojaa mwanga wa jua, zinazohisi kwa wakati mmoja kuwa za kifahari, zenye joto na za faragha. Hapa ni mahali panapokufanya utake kuchunguza na kukaa kwa muda.

Ngazi ndefu za mbele zinaelekea kwenye ukumbi wa kifahari wa kuingilia na ghorofa ya ukumbi wa mapokezi, ambako dari zake zinainuka zaidi ya futi 11. Madirisha marefu yenye shutters zake za awali yanaonyesha bustani na kuingiza mwanga wa asili ndani kabisa ya nyumba siku nzima. Ukumbi wa mbele una jiko la kuni, huku chumba cha kulia kilicho nyuma yake kikiwa na mahali pa kuwashia moto kwa kuni pamoja na sehemu ya juu iliyochongwa.

Nyuma ya ghorofa ya ukumbi wa mapokezi, milango ya kuteleza hufunguka kuelekea kwenye chumba kizuri cha jua, jiko lenye madirisha, stoo ya chakula, na veranda yenye mwanga wa jua inayoangalia bustani. Ikiwa imelindwa dhidi ya pilikapilika za jiji, sehemu ya nyuma ya nyumba ni eneo tulivu na la faragha kwa kiwango cha ajabu, linalotoa mazingira mazuri ya kula nje, kuwakaribisha wageni, kufanya bustani, au kufurahia tu maisha ya kila siku.

Kwenye ghorofa ya tatu, chumba kikuu cha kulala kina kabati kubwa la kuingia na bafu la kipekee la ndani lenye muundo wa ajabu ambalo lazima uone ili uamini. Likiwa na madirisha tisa yanayoelekea kaskazini, magharibi na kusini, jiko la kuni, na mlango unaofunguka kuelekea kwenye veranda kubwa yenye mwanga wa jua, chumba hiki huhisi kana kwamba ni sehemu ya nyumba ya mashambani ya Hudson Valley iliyokarabatiwa kwa mtindo wa kuvutia.

Ghorofa ya nne ina vyumba viwili vikubwa vya kulala vyenye mwanga wa jua na mandhari inayoangalia bustani, paa na majengo yaliyo mbali upande wa magharibi na mashariki, yakiwemo mnara wa kanisa la St. Paul’s lililojengwa mwaka 1838. Ghorofa hii pia ina bafu kamili, chumba cha kufulia, na ofisi yenye madirisha au chumba kidogo cha kulala chenye mandhari ya kuvutia ya bustani. Juu ya korido, skylight ya mviringo huingiza mwanga wa asili kwenye ngazi siku nzima.

Kiwango cha bustani kimepangwa kuwa nyumba yenye chumba kimoja cha kulala na kina sehemu ya juu ya mahali pa kuwashia moto yenye thamani ya kihistoria, jiko kubwa, na milango miwili inayofunguka moja kwa moja kuelekea ua wa nyuma. Kiwango hiki kinaweza kufikiwa kupitia ngazi kuu za nyumba, au kupitia mlango tofauti ulio chini ya ngazi za mbele. Kwenye basement kuna mashine ya kufulia na kikaushio, pamoja na mifumo ya kiufundi ya nyumba iliyotunzwa vizuri, ikiwemo mfumo wa umeme ulioboreshwa hivi karibuni.

Upande wa nje wa ukuta wa kaskazini, unaoelekea Verandah Place, bado unaonyesha ushahidi wa uwazi wa kihistoria wa dirisha uliojazwa matofali, ukiwa na kizingiti cha matofali chenye upinde wa sehemu na kingo ya chini ya matofali. Kwa kutegemea idhini ya Tume ya Uhifadhi wa Alama za Kihistoria, hii inaweza kutoa fursa ya kurejesha dirisha katika chumba cha kulala cha mbele kwenye ghorofa ya tatu, likiwa na mandhari ya Cobble Hill Park na Clinton Street kuelekea juu.

Kukamilisha yote hayo, nyumba hii inakuja na nafasi ya maegesho ya kibinafsi iliyofichika kwenye Verandah Place yenye haiba ya kipekee na inayofanana na njia nyembamba ya mabanda ya mjini—huduma adimu sana inayopatikana Cobble Hill.

Eneo linalotamaniwa la 247 Clinton Street, katikati ya Cobble Hill, linaifanya kuwa sehemu bora kabisa ya kuishi. Mbali na Cobble Hill Park iliyo moja kwa moja upande wa pili wa barabara, Brooklyn Bridge Park na ufukwe wake mzuri wa maji viko karibu. Ndani ya vitalu vichache kuna mkusanyiko wa kipekee wa migahawa inayopendwa, maduka ya bidhaa maalum, na huduma za mtaa, huku njia za treni za chini ya ardhi za 2/3, 4/5, F, G, R, na A/C pamoja na feri zikiwa karibu kwa ufikiaji rahisi wa Manhattan na maeneo mengine ya jiji. Njoo uione nyumba hii ya kipekee ya mjini na uifanye kuwa mandhari ya sura yako inayofuata huko Brooklyn!

Here’s a rare opportunity to live in a nearly 23-foot-wide brick townhouse on a beautiful park block, with an array of historic details, three sunny outdoor spaces, a dramatic third-floor sunroom, and private parking. Built in 1849 by John Greacen in a transitional style combining elements of Greek Revival and Italianate design, 247 Clinton Street retains its original cornice, portico, window lintels, entry door design, and many other architectural details.

Set at the corner of Verandah Place across from Cobble Hill Park, 247 Clinton Street looks into and over the park’s leafy canopy. Currently configured as a triplex over a garden apartment, the house retains the gracious proportions, architectural character, and spirit of its original single-family design. The house flows beautifully with an elegant procession of sunlit spaces that feel at once gracious, warm and intimate. This is a place that makes you want to explore and linger.

A tall stoop leads up to an elegant vestibule and the parlor floor, where the ceilings soar over 11-feet high. Tall windows with their original shutters showcase the park and draw natural light deep into the house throughout the day. The front parlor features a woodburning stove while the dining room beyond has a woodburning fireplace with a carved mantel.

At the rear of the parlor floor, pocket doors open to a beautiful sunroom, windowed kitchen, pantry, and sunny terrace overlooking the garden. Sheltered from the bustle of the city, the backyard is a remarkably tranquil and private retreat, creating a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying everyday life.

On the third floor, the primary bedroom features a large walk-in closet and a remarkable one-of-a-kind en-suite bathroom that must be seen to be believed. With nine windows facing north, west, and south, a wood-burning stove, and a door that opens onto a large sunny terrace, this room feels like it belongs in a stylishly renovated Hudson Valley farmhouse.

The fourth floor features two large, sunny bedrooms with vistas over the park, rooftops, and buildings beyond to the west and east, including the spire of St. Paul’s Church, built in 1838. This floor also includes a full bathroom, laundry room, and a windowed office or small bedroom with spectacular park views. Above the hallway, a round oculus skylight brings natural light down the staircase throughout the day.

The garden level is configured as a one-bedroom apartment and includes a historic fireplace mantel, large kitchen, and two doors that open directly to the backyard. This level can be accessed from the house’s main staircase as well as through a separate entrance beneath the stoop. In the cellar are a washer and dryer and the house’s well-maintained mechanical systems, including electrical service that was recently upgraded.

The exterior of the north wall, facing Verandah Place, retains evidence of a historic window opening with brick infill, including a segmental-arched brick lintel and brick sill. Subject to Landmarks Preservation Commission approval, this may offer an opportunity to restore a window to the third-floor front bedroom, with views of Cobble Hill Park and up Clinton Street.

To top it all off, the house comes with a private parking space tucked away on the enchanting mews-like Verandah Place, a vanishingly rare amenity in Cobble Hill.

247 Clinton Street’s coveted location in the heart of Cobble Hill makes it an idyllic place to live. In addition to Cobble Hill Park directly across the street, Brooklyn Bridge Park and its beautiful waterfront are nearby. An exceptional array of beloved restaurants, boutiques, and neighborhood amenities can be found within a few blocks, while the 2/3, 4/5, F, G, R, and A/C subway lines and the ferry are also close by for easy access to Manhattan and the rest of the city. Come see this extraordinary townhouse and make it the backdrop for your next chapter in Brooklyn!
