Inside, this two-floor apartment in the Standish at 171 Columbia Heights<\/a> looks for all the world like the gracious pre-war co-ops and townhouses that surround it in historic Brooklyn Heights. But this 1,786-square-foot home has the convenience of full-service condo living in a converted Beaux-Arts hotel. Asking $3,995,000, the duplex has enough space to add a third bedroom to its already generous two-bedroom layout.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With interiors done by Patrick Mele<\/a>, the home is move-in-ready (provided you\u2019re partial to lush materials and classically elegant decor). Framed by high, coffered ceilings, herringbone floors, crown moldings, and oversized arched windows, built-ins and custom details add 21st-century livability.<\/p>\n

The main floor is anchored by a 30-foot-long great room with 12-foot ceilings and arched windows that frame the streetscape below. There\u2019s enough space to add a third bedroom, made even easier by a full bath already in place. <\/p>\n

A well-outfitted galley kitchen offers premium appliances framed by contemporary white cabinetry and Carrara marble worktops. A large pantry serves this capable space. There\u2019s plenty of room for a formal dining area adjacent to the kitchen.<\/p>\n

Up a dramatic stair, sleeping quarters begin with an impressive primary suite. Bay windows overlook the neighborhood, and four custom closets keep clutter behind closed doors. A suitably classic ensuite bath has a glass-enclosed shower and a freestanding soaking tub. The large second bedroom has its own full bath. <\/p>\n

The Standish offers an elevator, a 24-hour doorman, concierge services, a fitness studio, a playroom, and a landscaped rooftop terrace with harbor views. As an added bonus, the duplex includes a private storage cage. <\/p>\n
