Kontrè ak tout sa ou te wè anvan, 431 Washington Avenue se yon trezò istorik ra nan kè Clinton Hill. Sitiye sou DE 20 pye pa 100 pye, ak yon garaj prive ak yon chimen, kay sa a ki gen yon aparans majè te byen antreteni, ki ofri yon balans remakab ant detay peryòd ki prezève ak amelyorasyon ki fèt ak anpil atansyon.

Orijinalman bati an 1911 pa yon doktè ki te itilize premye etaj la kòm biwo medikal li, kay la te konstwi ak yon kalite briyik ak siman espesifik, chwazi pou sipòte livy Vèjinyen ki elegamman kap drape eksteryè li. Nivo entansyon sa a evidan tout kote nan kay la jodi a.

Kouvri apeprè 6,000 pye kare, plan aktyèl la gen ladan yon basen Angle ki fini ak twa nivo anwo ki gen anpil gré, plis kat espas estidyo separe-chak ak yon antre prive-kèk ladan yo chita sou garaj la. Espas sa yo te yon fwa fè pati biwo doktè a, kotyè ak kwati sèvis, men kounye a yo ofri gwo fleksibilite pou itilizasyon. Andedan, premye etaj la ouvè ak yon salon elegant, yon sala manje ki ase gran, yon kwizin cho ak akeyan, ak yon sal billiard ki byen dekore. Sal la se yon gwo sal reyinyon-vreman vre, gran nan echèl, men entim nan santi-avec fenèt orijinal, pòt konplè, moldings tèt ki konplike, ak planch an bwa ki briye. Limyè lwès ba li tout espas lan nan solèy lò nan apremidi.

Sal manje ofisyèl la se tou enpresyonan-assez espas pou gwo rasanbleman, men toujou plen ak cham, ak enstalasyon ki gen vè plon orijinal ak panèl an bwa klasik. Jis apre, yon gwo eskalye santral ki gen fenèt vè plon gide ou nan etaj anwo yo.

Sal billiard la se yon espas ki rete nan tèt atansyon, ak fenèt sou de bò ak yon bibliyotèk ki entegre, se yon espas ki santi l tankou li soti nan yon lòt epòk-youn ki fèt pou apremidi detann ak bon konpayi.

Kwizin nan ofri yon melanj armonye ant ansyen ak nouvo. Gade sou jaden an, li gen aparèy an asye pur, kontwa granit, ak kabinèt an bwa espesyal-man chwazi pou onore rasin achitekti kay la pandan li delivre fonksyonalite modèn.

Anwo, dezyèm etaj la ofri yon layout fleksib. Yon sal fanmi (ki ka fasilman tounen yon chanm) konekte ak yon bibliyotèk ki ka wè solèy la ak yon biwo ki gen fenèt ki gade sou jaden yo ki vèt. Nan devan etaj sa a, yon chanm ki gen anpil espas ak yon beny an suite ak kabinè ase sèvi kòm yon retrè kalm.

Dènye etaj la, kounye a itilize kòm yon suite primè ki gen anpil espas, gen ladan de gwo chanm-youn ak yon limyè dramati, yon lòt beny an suite, yon wet bar, ak aksè nan tèt la sou ekstansyon dèyè a, kote ajoute yon dek prive ta fasil.

Aba, basen Angle a ofri plis fleksibilite, ak yon twalèt, anpil depo, ak espas ki ideyal pou yon biwo kay, yon sal egzèsis kay, oswa dezyèm bibliyotèk.

Tout kote nan kay la, detay ki pa janm pase de tan se anpil-anbriwa rich, bèl planch orijinal, ak kat ekspozisyon ki inonde enteryè a ak limyè natirèl. Kat espas estidyo ki separe, ki gen ladan loft garaj la, kreye san limit posiblite pou itilizasyon kreyatif.

Parfe plase jis yon blòk epi yon mwatye soti nan tren C ak G, 431 Washington Avenue se kèk moman soti nan richès kiltirèl ak gastronomik Clinton Hill ak Fort Greene-Fort Greene Park, BAM, ak kantite boutik ak restoran.

Unlike anything you've seen before, 431 Washington Avenue is a rare historic treasure in the heart of Clinton Hill. Situated on TWO 20" x 100" lots with a private garage and driveway, this stately home has been impeccably maintained, offering a remarkable balance of preserved period detail and thoughtfully executed upgrades.

Originally built in 1911 by a physician who used the ground floor as his medical office, the house was constructed with a specific type of brick and mortar, chosen to support the Virginia Creeper Ivy that elegantly drapes its exterior. That same level of intention is evident throughout the home today.

Spanning approximately 6,000 square feet, the current layout includes a finished English basement and three gracious levels above, plus four separate studio spaces-each with a private entrance-including one perched above the garage. These ancillary spaces were once part of the doctor's office, maid and service quarters, but now offer great flexibility of use. Inside, the main floor unfolds with an elegant parlor, a generously sized dining room, a warm and inviting kitchen, and a richly appointed billiard room. The living room is a true great room-grand in scale, yet intimate in feel-with original casement windows, shutters, intricate crown moldings, and gleaming hardwood floors. Western light bathes the space in golden afternoon sun.

The formal dining room is equally impressive-spacious enough for large gatherings, yet still full of charm, with original leaded-glass-front built-ins and classic wood paneling. Just beyond, a wide center staircase crowned with leaded glass windows guides you to the upper floors.

The billiard room is a showstopper, lined with windows on two sides and anchored by a built-in bookshelf, it's a space that feels lifted from another era-one made for leisurely afternoons and good company.

The kitchen offers a harmonious blend of old and new. Overlooking the garden, it features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and custom wood cabinetry-all chosen to honor the home's architectural roots while delivering modern functionality.

Upstairs, the second floor offers a flexible layout. A family room (easily converted back to a bedroom) connects to a sunlit library and windowed office overlooking the lush gardens. At the front of this floor, a spacious bedroom with an en suite bath and ample closets serves as a serene retreat.

The top floor, currently used as a sprawling primary suite, includes two large bedrooms-one with a dramatic skylight-another en suite bath, and access to the roof over the rear extension, where adding a private deck would be effortless.

Downstairs, the English basement provides even more versatility, with a powder room, abundant storage, and space ideal for a home office, home gym, or second library.

Throughout the home, timeless details abound-rich woodwork, beautiful original floors, and four exposures that flood the interior with natural light. The four detached studio spaces, including the garage loft, create endless possibilities for creative use.

Perfectly positioned just a block and a half from the C and G trains, 431 Washington Avenue is moments from the cultural and culinary richness of Clinton Hill and Fort Greene-Fort Greene Park, BAM, and countless shops and restaurants.
