A rare opportunity to lease an exquisite, historic Brooklyn brownstone.

Built in 1870, this grand 3,600-square-foot townhouse beautifully blends original Italianate architectural details with modern upgrades. Timeless charm radiates throughout with original wide-plank pine floors, soaring 12-foot ceilings, and five wood-burning fireplaces framed by original marble mantels. Pocket doors elegantly separate the parlor-level living and dining rooms, while a stunning stained-glass skylight bathes the top floor in natural light.

The expansive TRUE chef's kitchen on the parlor level features multiple windows overlooking the lush, private garden. It's equipped with a 6-burner Viking stove with two full ovens and a griddle, a Bosch dishwasher, and a 36-inch Liebherr refrigerator. An outdoor wide spiral staircase connects the kitchen directly to the garden. The garden itself is designed for entertaining, complete with a pergola, built-in grill, and mature plantings.

The garden level of the house offers exceptional flexibility with a bedroom/den, family room, kitchenette with Bertazzoni stove and refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, dining area, and a full bathroom - all opening to the garden through charming French doors.

Upstairs, the second floor boasts two spacious bedrooms, including a sun-filled primary suite with a large private terrace adorned with rose bushes and outdoor seating. A tastefully renovated full bathroom completes the floor.

The top level includes two more generous bedrooms, a home office or nursery, and another updated full bathroom with a vented washer and dryer. The basement offers over 900 square feet of storage and includes a full-capacity, vented washer/dryer, and an Electrolux internal vacuum system. The home is also equipped with a modern HVAC central air system for year-round comfort.

This is a truly rare opportunity to lease a historic Boerum Hill brownstone with exceptional space, preserved architectural beauty, and thoughtfully integrated modern conveniences.

Sorry, no pets and no smoking permitted. A two-year lease is preferred.
