For the very first time on offer, located on one of the prettiest tree-lined brownstone blocks in historic Clinton Hill, 168 Saint James Place is an exceptional Brooklyn townhouse offering gracious interiors, beautiful architectural detail, and three private outdoor spaces, including a landscaped rear garden, parlor-level dining terrace, and private roof deck with skyline views.
Renovated with a thoughtful blend of historic character and modern convenience, the home features soaring ceilings, oversized windows, exposed brick, original wood beams, and a restored central staircase with a curved mahogany banister. The result is a warm, elegant residence that feels both classic and contemporary.
The garden level serves as the heart of the home, with a comfortable family room, dining area, and a stunning white chef's kitchen appointed with marble countertops, custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, and radiant floor heating. Large sliding glass doors open directly to the deep private rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The parlor floor offers an especially gracious setting for entertaining, with dramatic ceiling heights, a welcoming foyer, a charming front sitting area overlooking Saint James Place, and a refined living room that opens to a private dining patio overlooking the rear yard. Outdoor furniture is included for the rental period at request.
The second floor is devoted to an expansive primary suite, complete with a large walk-in closet and a beautifully finished white Carrara marble bath. The bath features an oversized Kohler shower with Hydrorail and rain shower fixtures, separate pressure valves, a freestanding Kohler tub, a large marble double vanity, and a Kohler Numi intelligent toilet.
The third floor includes two bedrooms, a full bath and entry to the expansive rooftop terrace with incredible views of Downtown Brooklyn and beyond. Additional highlights include central heat and air conditioning, in-home laundry with full-size front-loading machines, generous storage, a wonderful stoop and a parlor-level window seat for a cozy reading nook for rainy days.
Perfectly situated near the C and G trains at Clinton-Washington Avenues, with Atlantic Terminal, Pratt Institute, Fort Greene Park, neighborhood cafes, restaurants, and shops all nearby, 168 Saint James Place offers a rare opportunity to rent a beautifully renovated townhouse in one of Brooklyn's most beloved neighborhoods.
