56 Middagh Street

About this property

Set on Middagh Street in the heart of Brooklyn Heights is a rarely available, pristine, single family townhouse. 56 Middagh Street is located on a historic tree-lined street of Brooklyn Heights with its own multi car parking. Built in 1827, this premier home is one of the most historic houses in the Heights, and at a rare 25’ width, benefits from spaciousness and style in a highly sought after location.

The five floor home has been meticulously and thoughtfully redesigned inside and out to create a balance of style and comfort. No detail has been overlooked in creating this luxury home which was renovated with only the highest grade materials and finishes.

Upon entering the parlor level you are immediately struck by the light, serenity and beauty of the space. Old meets new with original large plank wood floors and a back wall of contemporary double height steelcase windows. The large chef’s kitchen overlooks the bluestone landscaped garden. The kitchen includes a six burner dual oven Wolf range, Sub Zero refrigerator, two dishwashers, and a breakfast bar that seats four. The parlor level also includes a family dining area with a built-in banquet, and a living room with a wood burning fireplace. On the second level, you’ll find three bedrooms and two full baths. Two of the bedrooms overlook the garden, one with an ensuite bath and balcony. One more flight takes you to a stunning master suite with two closet spaces, a large soaking tub, fireplace, double sink, and a walk-in shower with an extra large Dornbracht rainhead, a welcoming oasis after a busy day.

On the garden level you will find a formal dining and sitting area with a wood burning fireplace, powder room with wall mounted marble sink, bar area and an additional bluestone patio. Continue down a level to the refinished basement which provides a kids paradise, including playspace and movie room.

The lush landscaped garden includes a built-in grill station and a tree house.

Finally, this home has its own three-car private parking area adjacent to the property for your personal use. The parking area can be converted to a carriage house and will be sold with NYC landmark approved drawings for a four story (plus a rec space), three bedroom, two full, two half bath home.

Conveniently located near Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Brooklyn promenade and the restaurants of both the Heights and DUMBO. 56 Middagh Street blends location, design, and the highest level of craftsmanship. This gorgeous home is a must see.

All showings are by private appointment.
