在1850年代以希臘復興風格建造的44巴特勒街（44 Butler Street）是一棟寬25英尺的磚砌聯排別墅，位於陽光明媚的交通不繁忙的科博山地區，位置相當值得羨慕。這棟華麗的住宅保留了許多歷史細節，包括優雅的大理石壁爐架、錫天花板、原始樓梯、寬木板的底層地板等。最初建造時是單一家庭住宅，現在的配置為三戶共用，擁有一個帶地下室和金庫的庭院/客廳層雙層公寓，以及樓上兩個貫通公寓。將44巴特勒街改造成1戶或2戶聯排別墅相當容易。區域法規允許增加超過800平方英尺的面積。

回到44巴特勒街，你將走上寬闊的樓梯進入一個寬敞的入口大廳，地板是寬木板，天花板接近11英尺高，大窗口的光線從樓梯平台上方湧入。庭院/客廳層雙層公寓擁有一個大客廳，設有兩個原始的黑色大理石壁爐和一個陽光明媚的廚房。廚房通往一個朝南的大露台，俯瞰著深闊的後院。這個遠離城市喧囂的寧靜綠洲是放鬆、娛樂和享受每日生活的美好場所。

客廳層包括一個貼心設置的半浴室，位於通往花園層的樓梯旁，花園層擁有三間臥室、一個大浴室和一個寬敞的洗衣房。後面有玻璃門通往一個私人磚砌露台。

樓上有兩個貫通公寓，狀況良好，隨時可以出租。由於建築的南北朝向，陽光整天灑入室內。街對面不是其他建築，而是一個遊樂場，使得視野非常開闊，可以欣賞到布魯克林市中心的全貌和充足的光線。朝南的一側同樣獲得良好的光線，這要歸功於街區後院的慷慨深度和道格拉斯街房屋的低矮外觀。

44巴特勒街還有一個在紐約市非常少見的有趣歷史特徵。雖然一些聯排別墅的樓梯下方只包含少量儲藏空間，但44巴特勒街有階梯通往一個長約25英尺的寬敞金庫，並設有拱形天花板。雖然無法確定在其170多年歷史中，各種管理者是如何利用這個引人入勝的空間的，但可以輕易想像它今天作為酒窖、工作室、娛樂室、地下酒吧風格的娛樂區等多種用途。

44巴特勒街靠近著名的餐廳、精品店、公園和其他使科博山、博倫山、卡羅爾花園和布魯克林高地出名的便利設施。就在法院街和史密斯街的街角，你會找到一系列受歡迎的鄰里商店，包括一個深受喜愛的獨立書店“書籍真魔法”（Books Are Magic）、詩意咖啡（Poetica Coffee）、三葉草俱樂部（Clover Club）、史密斯街上的黎凡特（Levant on Smith）、聯合市場（Union Market）、法院街糕點店（Court Street Pastry Shop）等。為了方便前往曼哈頓和城市的其他地區，F/G地鐵站就在幾個街區之外。2、3、4、5、R、A和C線也很容易到達，附近還有布魯克林大橋公園的6號碼頭渡輪。

攜帶你的承包商和建築師，讓這棟歷史悠久的科博山聯排別墅成為你在布魯克林新篇章的背景。

Built in the 1850’s in the Greek Revival style, 44 Butler Street is a grand 25 ft wide brick townhouse with an enviable position in Cobble Hill on a sunny low-traffic block. This gorgeous home retains many historic details, including elegant marble fireplace mantles, tin ceilings, the original staircase, wide plank subfloors, and much more. Originally built as a single-family, 44 Butler Street is currently configured as a 3-family comprising a garden/parlor floor duplex with a cellar and vault, and two floor-through apartments above. It would be easy to adapt 44 Butler Street for use as a 1-family or 2-family townhouse. Zoning allows for the addition of over 800 additional square feet.

Coming home to 44 Butler Street, you’ll ascend a wide stoop and enter into a spacious entry hall with wide plank floors, ceilings that soar close to 11-feet high and light that streams down from a large window on the staircase landing above. The garden/parlor floor duplex features a large parlor with two original black marble fireplaces and a sunny kitchen. The kitchen steps out to a large south-facing terrace perched over a deep and wide backyard. This tranquil oasis from the bustle of the city is a wonderful place to relax, entertain, and enjoy everyday life.

The parlor floor includes a half bath nicely tucked off the staircase that leads to the garden level, where you’ll find three bedrooms, a large bathroom, and a spacious laundry room. In the back glass doors open to a private brick patio.

Upstairs you’ll find two floor-through apartments which are in good condition and ready to be rented. Light streams in all day long thanks to the building’s north-south orientation. Instead of buildings across the street, there’s a playground which provides for stunning unobstructed views of Downtown Brooklyn and tremendous light. The south facing side also gets great light, given the generous depth of the block’s backyards and the low profile of the houses on Douglass Street.

44 Butler Street includes a fun historic feature rarely seen in New York City. Whereas some townhouses will include just a bit of storage space underneath the stoop, 44 Butler Street has steps that lead down to a sprawling approximately 25-foot long vault with a domed ceiling. While it’s impossible to know how various stewards of 44 Butler Street may have used this intriguing space over its 170 + year history, one could easily envision it today as a wine-cellar, workshop, rec room, speak-easy style entertainment area, and much more.

44 Butler Street is close to the renowned restaurants, boutiques, parks and other amenities that have made Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill, Carroll Gardens and Brooklyn Heights famous. Just around the corner on Court Street and Smith Street you’ll find an array of neighborhood favorites including a beloved independent bookstore called Books Are Magic, Poetica Coffee, Clover Club, Levant on Smith, Union Market, the Court Street Pastry Shop and much more. For a quick commute to Manhattan and the rest of the city, the F/G station is just a couple blocks away. The 2, 3, 4, 5, R, A, and C lines are also easily accessible, and the Pier 6 Ferry is nearby at Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Bring your contractor and architect and make this historic Cobble Hill townhouse the backdrop for your next chapter in Brooklyn.
