About This Home

59 Lefferts Place

Exquisitely renovated and remarkably proportioned, with 22' width and 50' depth, on a rare 140' lot — 59 Lefferts Place is a complete owner-led re-imagination of a historic Clinton Hill property. With architectural design by BAOO and garden by Brook Landscape, the home features a rare grade of natural materials and equal artistry and functionality; privately presented, the glimpses offered here are an invitation to a scale and specificity most beautifully experienced in person. A unique motif of arches — across lofted doorways, barrel-raised ceilings and skylights, a wall of doors that draws the garden into the parlor floor, and the curvature of the limewashed fireplace anchoring the luminous parlor — reflects both historic Brooklyn and biophilic design. Original doors, mantelpieces, stairs and railings are matched with reconstructed medallions; designer fixtures from Alexandre Biaggi, Louis Jobst, Allied Maker, among others; and a palette of honed and polished stone, zellige tile, and brass hardware perfectly harmonizing the subtle vibrancy of a paint schema that draws from that same rich vein of natural materials. The home's exceptional artistry creates an immediate impression; its functionality reveals itself more quietly, across five floors of thoughtful integrations and surprising touches — from the fully-equipped, high end gym in the semi-finished basement; to the integrated projector system in the garden floor family room; to the jewelbox of a parlor-floor powder room and wet bar; the kitchen with its suite of Thermador, Miele, Bosch, and SubZero appliances and dutch doors to quiet visual noise; multi-zoned all-electric heating and cooling; and an impressive but unobtrusive amount of utility space, cleverly concealed with flush-to-wall doors and mortised brass pulls. A remarkable primary suite with twin walk-in closets, a skylit library, and a luminous hammam-like bath spans the top floor. Experienced as a single-family residence, the garden level provides an additional king-size bedroom and elegant family room with integrated projector system, custom-clad kitchen, and wood-burning fireplace, lit by and leading into the green tranquility of the garden; all that’s required to convert the property into an impeccable two-family home — both its legal designation and built use — is the locking of two doors. The splendid garden — 1600sf of lush planting, patio, pathways, and separate areas to dine and relax — is anchored by fruiting serviceberry and fig trees, vining tomatoes, lavender bushes, and a cold plunge for hot summer nights. Materials, mood, function, and proportion : all exquisite. Most fixtures convey. Some furnishings available for separate purchase. In the heart of Clinton Hill, on a leafy block a short walk from local favorites like Otway Bakery, Sisters, Locanda, Coffeeland and Smor, with easy proximity to Prospect Park, Fort Greene Park, and the arts nexus of BAM and Barclays Center. Valet parking garage with EV charging, one block away. Showing by appointment only.
