From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Email Only Please! Step through the door of 125 Hicks Street and travel back to an era of elegant living and sumptuous entertaining. This immaculately preserved parlor duplex in the heart of Brooklyn Heights has the kind of character you simply can't build anymore. Fifteen-foot ceilings rise above new floors, and floor-to-ceiling western windows let golden light pour in from both sides, so the rooms glow from morning to evening. The parlor is a true ballroom-style sitting room, one of the last of its kind, and you can easily picture yourself hosting a candlelit dinner in the formal dining room. The newly renovated open kitchen keeps you right in the middle of the conversation, with a pantry close at hand and a washer and dryer making everyday life easy. Upstairs, large, gracious bedrooms offer room to breathe, two with decorative marble fireplaces made for quiet winter mornings. A walk-in closet and newly renovated bathrooms add modern comfort to all that old-world charm. Step outside to your wonderful garden for weekend brunches and cozy evenings under the open sky. Freshly painted and ready for immediate move-in, with heat and hot water included. Pets are welcome with approval. You haven't seen one like this in a long time, we promise. Welcome home!
