Description

Price Improvement on the lovely and versatile landmark Cobble Hill brownstone.

This lovely 19th-century, landmarked brownstone is a beauty. Currently configured as an income-producing three-family (owner's parlor duplex with dry basement and private garden), a garden floor-through rental with private entrance and outdoor space, and a spacious 2-bedroom plus attic upper duplex rental, you could leave this townhouse alone, move into the owners' duplex and with some minor upgrades, transform the rentals into excellent monthly income.

Or, you could return this townhouse to its original single-family glory possibly taking advantage of the extra square footage afforded by the FAR-- with minimal, straightforward opening up and connecting of the current units and your own aesthetic touches. 195 Baltic could be your grand, unusually sunny, 5-story home in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn.

With its original 1800s brick facade, full-height parlor windows, elegant period moldings, 11' parlor-floor ceilings, wide-plank hardwood floors, marble fireplaces, and HGTV-designed and installed 3-teired garden, and more, 195 Baltic is one of the rare ones, solidly built with great bones and tremendous details, ready for your eye and final touches.

Cobble Hill has is one of New York City's most popular and desirable neighborhoods -- not only for its easy access by train, ferry, taxi, or bike to Manhattan, but also for its old-world European village feel with its mom-and-pop shops, independent bookstores and cinemas, cafes and restaurants, farmer's markets, and true neighborhood attitude. A few blocks from the greenway connecting Red Hook to Brooklyn Bridge Park, the New York City ferries, and other attractions along the east river, Cobble Hill is a quiet, leafy haven right in the middle of the bustling city.

195 Baltic is shown by private appointment only.
