40 Garden Place
40 Garden Place is a gut-renovated single-family house on one of Brooklyn Heights' quietest lanes, in contract at $12,750,000. Garden Place earned its name honestly: the street was laid out in 1842 across the formal garden behind the mansion of Philip Livingston, a New York signer of the Declaration of Independence, and parts of the old garden wall still stand as back fences on the block today.
The house is a mid-19th-century Greek Revival brought forward, five bedrooms across twelve rooms, inside the first historic district New York ever designated, in 1965. The renovation reads as English cottage warmth meeting Scandinavian restraint, most of all in the steel-framed rear that opens to the garden.
