Spanning approximately 6,600 square feet, the residence offers exceptional scale across multiple levels, with a private elevator providing effortless access throughout the home. The thoughtfully composed floor plan includes five bedrooms, four-and-a-half bathrooms, a full-floor primary suite, private gym, garden, and terrace. Studio Shamshiri's distinctive approach is evident throughout, with remarkable attention to proportion, material, color, and light. Richly layered interiors, custom details, exceptional finishes, and a sophisticated interplay between historic architecture and contemporary design give the residence a character entirely its own. Generous entertaining spaces unfold across the home, while the full-floor primary suite creates a private retreat set apart from the other living spaces. Five bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths provide flexibility for residents and guests, while the elevator seamlessly connects each level. A dedicated gym provides a private space for fitness and wellness within the home. Outdoor living is equally considered, with a private garden and terrace extending the home beyond its interiors and providing spaces for dining, entertaining, and quiet retreat. Rather than simply restoring the house, the renovation has created a residence with a distinct point of view. Original character and architectural scale are balanced by warm, tactile materials and beautifully considered contemporary interventions. Each room feels individual yet connected-refined and sophisticated, yet unmistakably livable. Sidney Place is one of Brooklyn Heights' most coveted residential enclaves: an intimate, tree-lined block of distinguished 19th-century townhouses, moments from Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Promenade, Cobble Hill, and the neighborhood's restaurants, shops, and transportation. With approximately 6,600 square feet, five bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, a full-floor primary suite, elevator, private gym, garden, terrace, and interiors by Studio Shamshiri, 16 Sidney Place presents an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a fully realized design residence in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Single Family Residence - **Beds**: 6 - **Total Baths**: 5 - **Rooms**: 10 - **Sqft**: 6,600 sqft - **Stories**: 1 - **Year Built**: 1901 - **Price per Sqft**: $2,265 - **Monthly Taxes**: $3,236 / mo - **Listed On**: Sep 14, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 1 Days ### Residence Features - Central Air - In Unit - Garden - Private Outdoor Space Over 60 Sqft - High Ceilings - Smoke Free - Storage - Walk-In Closet(s) - Dishwasher ## Sales Evidence ### How this price compares The median closed price for comparable house sales in Brooklyn Heights is $5,350,000, based on 23 sales between October 2021 and June 2026. This home is asking $14,950,000, $9,600,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $4,932,500 and $6,930,000. - **Median closed price**: $5,350,000 - **Middle half**: $4,932,500 – $6,930,000 - **Based on**: 23 house sales in Brooklyn Heights - **Period**: October 2021 – June 2026 - **Median $/ft²**: $1,465/ft² Across the 18 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.9% of what it originally asked. 72% of them closed below the original ask. A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across Brooklyn Heights. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 94.9% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 72% of 18 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 102 days (about 15 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 72 days (about 10 weeks) Across the 18 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.9% of what it originally asked. 72% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 102 days (about 15 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 22 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 72 days (about 10 weeks), based on the 22 with both dates recorded. These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. Based on 23 house sales in Brooklyn Heights, October 2021 – June 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
