24 Remsen Street is a grand Renaissance Revival townhouse, built in the 1890's. Although the architect's record have been lost, the details of the house are reminiscent of famed Brooklyn architect Montrose Morris.
The thoughtful use of light-colored building materials such as limestone, light-toned brick and marble helped classify the neighborhood as one that was not only architecturally extraordinary. but socially prominent, establishing architecture's role in society.
The house was built for wealthy stockbroker James Oliphant, who was a lifelong Brooklyn resident. The Oliphants were active in Brooklyn's busy social life. They appeared often in the society pages for attending and organizing social and charitable events.
The most arresting feature is a delicate third-floor oriel supported by a carved corbel with foliate trim at its base. This house is the only house, mid-block on Remsen Street, to be semidetached, with a side service entrance, and multi-story side bay.
Exceptional finishes, high-end appliances, and views of Manhattan and the harbor are just a few of the amenities that 24 Remsen has to offer; located just steps away from the Promenade on a tree-lined street in the landmarked district of Brooklyn Heights.
