Welcome to 207 Washington Avenue in beautiful Clinton Hill Brooklyn. This 1830's Victorian era single family home stands as a testament to timeless craftsmanship, seamlessly blending historic grandeur with contemporary elegance. Spanning four floors with over 3300 square feet of living space, including a long private driveway and garage, this home is truly extraordinary.

Enter the stunning home on the parlor floor from the expansive wraparound porch. Experience the richly carved wood detailing in the entry hall which opens into a grand living room, expanding the entire length of the home. The soaring ceilings and two original working gas fireplaces anchor the space in warmth and create a magnificent entertaining space. Follow the beautifully preserved hardwood floors into the adjacent dining room, with streaming sunshine from both south and east exposures throughout the day. This lovely room features unique built-in china cabinets and ornate leaded stained-glass windows. Adjacent is a contemporary butler's pantry with a sleek wet bar framed by rich cherry wood cabinetry and a stylishly discreet powder room.

Downstairs, the garden level is truly the heart of the home. Discover the architect-designed eat-in kitchen where neo-modern design meets the French countryside. Four floor-to-ceiling glass doors seamlessly merge the indoor and outdoor spaces, and open onto a backyard patio and a grand-scaled lawn, perfect for backyard summer soirees. The chef's kitchen features a Viking stove, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Jerusalem marble countertops, and Padauk wood cabinetry, while the original brick hearth and an operational dumbwaiter add a touch of functional nostalgia. A full bath and laundry room on this floor add comfort and convenience.

One flight up from the parlor floor is a suite of three gorgeous and spacious bedrooms, a quiet oasis bathed in sunlight with a peaceful ambiance. Every detail - from the restored decorative brass chandeliers to the ornately tiled fireplaces and expansive bay windows - tells a story of refined taste and enduring beauty.

Experience the architecturally playful fourth floor of the house, currently configured as a guest room, children's playroom, and a home office. Bathed in natural light from skylights above, this is a versatile space with endless possibilities.

Clinton Hill is a historic brownstone enclave known for its stunning architecture, a thriving food scene, and a strong sense of community. Enjoy nearby Fort Greene Park as well as easy access to abundant major transportation options for commuting, including the G train just two blocks away.
