Welcome to Residence 9A, the highest floor A line residence in this prewar Beaux Arts co-op in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. This sun drenched and airy 2 bedroom home offers triple exposures, open city views, and a quiet atmosphere.
A proper foyer welcomes you, complete with an oversized entry closet. Ahead, you’ll find a generously sized living and dining space. Bright eastern exposures fill the room with natural light and open views, while high ceilings and beautifully refinished hardwood floors enhance its warmth and character. Built-in shelving with a cabinet below adds both display space and functionality, while an oversized semi-walk-in closet provides additional storage. A designated dining area makes the space equally suited to everyday dining and entertaining.
The newly renovated windowed kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with brand-new white cabinetry accented by antique brass hardware, white quartz countertops, elegant Zellige vertical tile backsplash, timeless checkerboard porcelain tile floors, and a suite of stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher. Two windows frame open skyline views and welcome bright eastern light into this space.
A hallway leads to the bedroom wing, providing a nice separation of space. Both bedrooms enjoy abundant natural light and open views. The serene corner primary bedroom boasts double exposures, two large closets, and additional overhead storage, while the second bedroom enjoys southern exposures. The renovated windowed bathroom is appointed with subway tile, a standing shower with white pebble mosaic tiles, a medicine cabinet with storage, and recessed lighting.
Built in 1906, 161 Henry Street is a distinguished prewar Beaux Arts co-op that embodies the timeless architectural charm of Brooklyn Heights. Amenities include a ButterflyMX virtual doorman system, live-in super, storage for rent, bike room, courtyard and a laundry room.
