66 Downing Street Brooklyn, NY 11238

Set on a tree-lined, landmarked block in Clinton Hill, 66 Downing Street is a 20-foot-wide, five-story brownstone that marries historic character with bespoke modern design. Measuring 54 feet deep on the first two levels and spanning nearly 5,000 square feet, the home is both substantial and refined-crafted for grand entertaining as much as for the ease of everyday living.
A gracious vestibule with restored original entry doors, coffee-brown marble slab flooring, and designer wallpaper sets the tone, leading into the parlor level where soaring ceilings over ten feet high and 10-inch-wide white oak floors establish a warm, modern-classic aesthetic. The sweeping living and dining space features an original decorative fireplace and flows seamlessly into a custom eat-in kitchen. Anchored by a built-in banquette breakfast nook, the kitchen is finished with Calacatta Vagli marble countertops, integrated cabinetry, and a full suite of Miele appliances-opening directly to a west-facing deck and tranquil garden.
A jewel-box powder room on this level features a Calacatta Capri marble floor and a custom-carved stone sink.
The upper three floors have been thoughtfully designed, including a full-floor primary suite with a private terrace, expansive custom walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath clad in mocha-hued Arte Museum porcelain. With its travertine-inspired texture, soaking tub, oversized shower with bench, and double vanity topped with a sculptural marble countertop, the suite balances timeless elegance with modern serenity. A study, laundry, and linen closet complete this level.
The top two floors provide four additional bedrooms, each generously proportioned with access to beautifully finished baths featuring travertine-style flooring and playful colored tile accents. Thoughtful extras-multi-zone ducted Mitsubishi heating and cooling, built-in Sonos sound system, abundant storage, and a finished basement with laundry-allow the home to adapt gracefully to a variety of lifestyles.
On the garden level, you'll find a fully independent two-bedroom, two-bath apartment with its own private entrance tucked beneath the stoop-ideal for guests, extended family, or income potential.
Outdoors, multiple private terraces and a landscaped backyard invite al fresco dining, gatherings, or quiet retreat.
All of this is framed by the architectural beauty and cultural vibrancy of Clinton Hill, just moments from the A/C trains at Clinton-Washington and Franklin, and the G at Franklin Avenue. Neighborhood favorites like Otway, Sisters, and Locanda Vini & Olii are at your doorstep, making this both a timeless home and a quintessential Brooklyn lifestyle.
