Part of the 75 Henry St cooperative, 55 Henry is one of just a few townhouse units that provide a single family lifestyle for a price unmatched in the neighborhood. Part English cottage, part midcentury jewel box, 55 Henry is one of the most unique homes to grace the market.
This corner lot townhome welcomes you with a grand foyer, replete with timeless checkerboard marble flooring, rich wood panelling, and a custom midcentury floating staircase. On the garden level is a gracious foyer, striking green marble powder room, formal dining room, fabulously retro kitchen, and a wood-paneled living room with enough space for multiple seating areas and/or a music area, with direct access to the charming garden, outfitted with herringbone brick and planting beds.

The top floor streams in light from a skylight. Two bedrooms, one with built-in bookcases, share a bathroom with handmade Italian tile and glass blocks. The primary suite is king-sized, with a walk-in closet and ensuite full bath.
The home also has its own finished basement level, ideal for a bonus space of your choice: music studio, home office, playroom, rec room, you name it! With its own powder room, no need to go upstairs if you are entertaining or working down there. This floor also houses a laundry area. And while the home boasts ample closets throughout, should you spill over even more the basement is great for all of your storage needs.
Right on Henry St, the location is one of the most premier in all of Brooklyn. Cadman Plaza is across the way and the Promenade is only a few blocks in the other direction. Train access is a cinch with the Clark St 2/3 and High St A/C. The area boasts the Heights' best dining, including Inga's, Fifty Henry, Le French Tart, Noodle Pudding, Bevacco, Mint Heights, Vineapple Cafe, and more.
