Property Description
Welcome to 457 Washington Avenue, a lovingly maintained 21 Foot-wide, Italianate Brownstone set on a picturesque block within the Clinton Hill Historic District. Built in 1869 by Aquila B. England, this distinguished residence beautifully blends preserved 19th-century craftsmanship with thoughtful modern upgrades-an increasingly rare combination in one of Brooklyn's most storied neighborhoods. From the moment you approach the handsome brownstone stoop, the home's architectural pedigree is unmistakable. A round-arched entryway, classic brownstone lintels and sills, and an original wooden cornice set the tone for the elegance that continues inside. Stepping through the threshold, you're welcomed by meticulously preserved details: ornate plaster moldings on the parlor floor, pocket doors, rich window and door casings, and original parquet wood flooring that extends through the home. These elements create a warm, immersive backdrop that speaks to generations of careful stewardship. Currently configured as a two-family residence, the property offers a spacious four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath upper triplex above a one-bedroom garden apartment. Measuring a total of 4200 SF, this layout provides exceptional flexibility-ideal for multi-generational living, income potential, guest accommodations, or an expansive home office setup. High ceilings and oversized windows flood each level with natural light, illuminating the home's historic appointments while enhancing the sense of space. Recent renovations have introduced contemporary comfort without disturbing the home's original character. The updated kitchens and bathrooms are tastefully appointed, featuring modern fixtures and finishes that complement the brownstone's classic aesthetic. Beyond its architectural beauty, 457 Washington Avenue offers the lifestyle that makes Clinton Hill so sought after. Enjoy dining at some neighborhood favorites like, Aita, Speedy Romeo, Place des Fêtes, LaRina and Entre Nous, just to name a few.
