Now is your chance to own a piece of NYC history, a 20-foot-wide Brooklyn Brownstone in Clinton Hill. On the market for the first time, this well-preserved brownstone has been in the same family since its inception. With over 100 years of history, 348 Grand Avenue is currently for sale. Bring your architect, contractor, and your dreams. This gorgeous historic trophy is ready for a style upgrade. Legally a two-family dwelling but currently used as a single-family home, this 20×43 foot home has four bedrooms and three- and- a half baths, with extra space for an office, den, workout room for yoga, or your peloton bike-or create your dream closet. The garden level features a dining room with a marble fireplace and built-in cabinets. The kitchen, in need of some attention, is in the rear of the house, with a pantry, full bathroom, and mud room leading to the backyard. The backyard is a fenced-in open space flanked by mature trees and grass. This is a landscaper’s playground, waiting to be converted into a relaxing escape to entertain friends and family for years to come. You can also access the fully arched basement with house mechanicals on this level. Enjoy a classic stoop entrance to the parlor floor to confront a sweeping staircase or wide arched doorway leading to a double parlor at the front and rear of the house. Each room with high ceilings, crown moldings, fireplace mantles with beautifully carved marble, and large pocket doors to separate the space. A small but beautiful sunroom is also secretly tucked away. The third and fourth floors each have one bathroom with a clawfoot tub and rooms galore, providing flexibility for bedrooms, a living room, a den, storage or workout space, etc. There are many ways to describe this stunning space, but you must see it to believe it. It has great bones and enormous potential. This brownstone embodies prosperity if you are lucky enough to own it. Clinton Hill is home to Pratt Institute, Saint Joseph’s College, and a plethora of restaurants and cozy hangouts, including Starbucks, Choice Brooklyn, Aita, Peaches Grand, Sisters, and Mekelburg’s to name a few. The nearby subway lines include the G, A and C trains. Also nearby are Fort Greene Park, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Barclays Center and the Atlantic Terminal & Center, a shopping mall and transportation hub where you can access almost every other train line including the LIRR.
