From the Agent: "44 Willow Place in Brooklyn Heights is a trophy home, recently reimagined in a gut renovation by its design industry owners. A notable modernist townhouse designed by renowned architects Joseph Merz and Mary Merz in 1965 and one of only three modern landmark-approved townhouses in the neighborhood, this spectacular home now offers three bedrooms and two and half baths, a stunning new kitchen, and gorgeous living, dining and home office spaces in its 3,036 square feet, along with a coveted private garage."
The notable property is one of three modernist townhouses that the Merzes designed in the Brooklyn Heights neighborhood. Since being built in 1965, the home has one only changed hands a few times and is currently owned by a design industry couple.
The kitchen features custom-built ash cabinetry and polished Pietra Vivia marble counters. It’s located on the first level and offers direct access to the deck and garden below.
As part of a recent interior renovation, the current owners installed recessed lighting and maple floors throughout, as well as a new roof, Sonos speakers, and an all-electric HVAC system.
In addition to three airy bedrooms and an office space, the home also includes a gym.
Surrounded by concrete walls, the lush garden in the back is a private city oasis.
