Description

Introducing Residence 2C at 39 Remsen Street — an elegant, character-rich home on one of Brooklyn Heights’ most treasured tree-lined streets. A half block from the Brooklyn Promenade, and just one flight up, this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath co-op blends original 19th-century charm with thoughtful modern updates.

Soaring 10+ to 11-foot ceilings and north, east, and southwestern exposures create a sense of openness and warmth throughout the property. The welcoming foyer leads into a gracious living room anchored by original hardwood floors, tall windows, crown molding and period doors.

In 2024, the home underwent a stunning renovation of the kitchen and dining area. The windowed kitchen features custom cabinetry in Farrow & Ball’s Vert de Terre, quartz countertops, and a suite of modern appliances including a Bosch dishwasher, Frigidaire refrigerator and range, and a LG washer and dryer. A dedicated dining area completes this refreshed space.

The king-size primary bedroom boasts double exposures, original floors, wood moldings and abundant storage. An 1800s fireplace, currently decorative, could be restored to working condition if desired. A second bedroom is well-proportioned and versatile—perfect as a guest room, nursery, or home office. The full bathroom is timelessly designed with a marble vanity, subway tile, Toto heated toilet and frameless glass tub/shower enclosure. Basement storage is available for every shareholder. Cats are welcome; unfortunately dogs are not.

39 Remsen Street offers unparalleled access to all that makes Brooklyn Heights so beloved—Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Promenade, acclaimed restaurants and cafés, charming boutiques, grocery stores, and multiple subway lines.

Please note: the building has a flip tax to be paid by the purchaser. Listing courtesy of Compass ...
