120 Cambridge Place: Your Very Own Little Peace of Clinton Hill
A 12.5-Foot-Wide Brownstone with 6 Fireplaces, Updates & Approved Plans on Cambridge Place!
Here's a rare chance to make a classic brownstone your very own. 120 Cambridge Pl is a legal singlefam home on a 12.5' x 100' lot. Its original details are remarkably intact: high ceilings, deep bay windows, carved marble mantels, inlaid parquet floors and one of the most impressive original staircases. All of it sits in an intimate 45' deep footprint made for beautiful vertical, and slightly whimsical, living. The house needs renovating, and it comes with approved architectural plans, a brand-new deck, a brand new roof and new windows, so the hardest parts of the journey are already done. You will take over for design, decor and customization only.
The staircase. At the heart of the home, an original fairytale staircase spirals up through the upper floors. A sweeping mahogany banister rests on hand-turned balusters around a dramatic stairwell. Flooded with 1899 craftsmanship you simply can't recreate today

Clinton Hill | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Tucked behind the Brooklyn Navy Yard in central Brooklyn is the quiet residential neighborhood of Clinton Hill. Once a strictly working-class neighborhood, Clinton Hill has become known for its elegant brownstones and stately mansions that were built as Manhattanites crossed the East River in the 1920s in search of the supposed health benefits that came from living “on the hill,” which has an elevation of 95 feet. Now you will also find newer luxury apartment and condo buildings interspersed throughout the neighborhood.
The Pratt Institute and St. Joseph College give the area a certain energy that comes from having a college in your town, while it’s leafy streets, some with their original cobblestones, and slower pace attract young families. Millennials and professionals are flocking to Clinton Hill in search of a reasonably priced neighborhood that offers both nightlife and an easy commute to Manhattan. Clinton Hill is a beautiful neighborhood with a suburban feel and firm roots in its past that also offers plenty of urban amenities.
New businesses are showing up in Clinton Hill on a regular basis, adding to the current proliferation of coffee shops, restaurants, and bars. As the population changes, new entertainment and nightlife venues are migrating to the area to meet the demand. Barclays Center is within easy walking distance, offering exciting sporting events and concerts.
