Featuring over 25’ of frontage, 72 Hicks Street is a beautifully renovated single-family townhouse in the heart of Brooklyn Heights.

Built circa 1826, Number 72 sits on a quiet stretch of Hicks Street, amongst some of the most historic and tranquil townhouses in all of New York City. This stunning townhome offers the rare combination of modern luxury with incredible preserved period details. It has been meticulously maintained and boasts one of the finest landscaped gardens in Brooklyn. A pond and cherry blossom tree accentuate this one of a kind oasis.

A light and airy kitchen sits adjacent to the formal dining room on the parlor floor. The formal living room in the front of the parlor epitomizes Brownstone Brooklyn living. Two wood-burning fireplaces anchor this floor, which features a spacious layout and incredible detailing on the ceilings and walls, and flows seamlessly from the front door to the garden.

Comfort and flexibility make this home ideal, as it can easily accommodate up to 6 bedrooms and still provide ample living space. A secondary kitchen on the garden floor makes entertainment seamless both inside and in the beautiful garden.
