This duplex for rent on the top two floors of a Clinton Hill brownstone has quite a bit to recommend it, including vintage charm, a bathroom on each floor, and plenty of space. If there’s a drawback, apart from the climb on the stairs, it might be that the top floor appears to be the attic, which has low ceilings in spots and is likely to be hot in summer.
A floor plan shows seven rooms with windows on three exposures. Interior details include parquet, moldings, the original curving stair, and at least two skylights. There is also a claw-foot tub in the uppermost bathroom.
While the unit is listed as a two-bedroom, there are a number of additional rooms as well, including a smaller one that could work as an office or child’s bedroom. The nicely updated kitchen has a stone counter, dishwasher, and white subway tiles on the wall. There is an in-unit laundry and seven closets.
Listed for rent by the owner, the apartment is priced at $4,250. What do you think?
