Property Description
271 Hicks Street is a stunning 24 ft-wide mint condition, certified passive townhouse in prime Brooklyn Heights. Only 2 years after a gut renovation, this grand and spacious, 6,354 square-foot townhouse recently underwent a reinvention by renowned AD100 designer Monique Gibson and a complete renovation of the parlor floor and kitchen by luxury contractor Taffera Fine Building & Finishes. The result is a turnkey, design masterpiece serviced by a high-speed elevator on all floors (including the rooftop). This spectacular mansion epitomizes luxury in Brooklyn's most desirable neighborhood.
The Greek Revival townhouse features a grand stoop entry with functional gas lamps and 1,900 square feet of private outdoor space. The front stoop leads into the parlor floor with > 10-foot ceiling heights, a formal living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace with a custom mantle, and a wide-open dining and kitchen space. The state-of-the-art chef's kitchen features brand-new custom cabinetry and luxurious appliances, including two dishwashers, and two extra fridge drawers. The kitchen overlooks the landscaped garden and has glass doors to access the rear terrace which is fully equipped with a gas grill and sink and leads down to the rear irrigated garden. The garden level is accessible through a separate entrance beneath the stoop and is outfitted with a guest bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, a large recreation or media room, a powder room, a wet bar, an office or storage room, and seven floor-to-ceiling storage cabinets.
The hand-crafted, helical stairwell and banister lead from the basement to the second floor, where the full-floor primary suite sits. The primary bedroom features a private, landscaped, irrigated terrace and a gracious seating area with a custom-cut mohair rug and custom seating area furniture. The bathroom in the primary suite oasis contains a soaking tub, steam shower, and heated tile floors + towel rack. Between the bathroom and bedroom is an oversized, custom-built walk-in Boffi closet.
The third level has three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a laundry room with a farmhouse sink. The fourth floor has another bedroom or office with its own en-suite bathroom, an enormous, light-filled living room, and a powder room. All rooms on the western side of this floor have views of the harbor and downtown Manhattan.
On the top floor, there is an immaculate, fully landscaped and irrigated rooftop designed by Harrison Green with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and automatic awning for shade. Captivating skyline views of lower Manhattan, New York Harbor, and downtown Brooklyn complete this incredible entertainment space.
Below on the cellar level sits a fully equipped gym, a 400 bottle-temperature controlled wine cellar, a powder room, a full-size Electrolux washer and dryer, and storage space. The entire home is programmed with the Savant system, offering control of the lights, shades, security system, and music with indoor and outdoor speakers throughout the home from an app on your phone or iPad on each floor.
Set on a beautiful tree-lined block in the heart of Brooklyn Heights, only steps from Brooklyn Bridge Park and the bustling retail along Montague Street, Atlantic Avenue, and Court Street, 271 Hicks Street offers a rare opportunity for a discerning purchaser. This stately, mint condition piece of New York City's real estate history stands apart in a market that rarely offers truly turnkey homes.
