A highly sought-after neighborhood with charming streets and historic homes
Tree-lined cobblestone streets, intimate dining, and Revivalist-style brownstones make Cobble Hill feel like a living postcard of Brooklyn. “It's an idyllic, residential neighborhood with a lot of landmarked areas,” says Albi Zhubi, a licensed real estate salesperson with The Corcoran Group and a former resident of Cobble Hill. “Just stunning historic buildings with a lot of details and streets with rowhouses. It’s a very coveted neighborhood to live in, so you’re going to pay a premium for that,” she adds. In fact, as of summer 2024, it’s the most expensive neighborhood in all of Brooklyn. “Cobble Hill is renowned for its beautiful, preserved brownstones and rowhouses, showcasing a range of 19th century architectural styles, like Greek Revival, Italianate, early Romanesque Revival and Neo-Grecian,” says Rory M. Bolger, a broker with Brown Harris Stevens. “It’s a very cozy, village-like atmosphere — a true, true neighborhood in Brooklyn.” And with excellent bars, artisanal shops and celebrity residents, not to mention that the Brooklyn Heights Promenade along the East River is within walking distance, it’s easy to see why this neighborhood is so popular.

Competitive real estate market with Revivalist-style brownstones
Homes are priced significantly higher here compared to the rest of Brooklyn. In the Cobble Hill Historic District, stately 19th-century rowhouses of Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Romanesque Revival, and Italianate styles line the streets. Many single-family homes have been converted into condos and co-ops over the years, but there’s very limited inventory across the board. “There’s a mix of townhouses, converted brownstones, and low-rise co-ops and condos,” says Zhubi. “Mint-condition properties tend to sell more quickly if they’re priced accurately, and that pricing can be pushed a little bit more because there’s a lot of competition. It’s good that everyone is trying to scramble to get in, if they can, because properties retain their value.” A one-bedroom co-op typically ranges between $659,000 and $750,000, while two-bedroom co-ops tend to run between $1.1 million and $2 million. One-bedroom condos are rare to market, but can go for just under $1 million, while two-bedrooms generally run between $2.5 million and $3.5 million. Elegant, prewar townhouses in the Historic District typically start at $4 million, however prospective buyers can find a handful of newly constructed condos closer to the water (and I-278) priced at $2 million to $2.9 million for three-bedroom units.

Quaint greenspaces with several Brooklyn Bridge Park Piers within walking distance
A small green space with a meandering walkway and benches makes up the charming Cobble Hill Park and there’s also the Van Voorhees Playground, complete with tennis and handball courts, as well as the Adam Yauch Dog Park near the BQE. Nearby, along the East River, residents can access the Brooklyn Bridge Park - Pier 6, which has a popular beach volleyball court and scenic walkway, as well as Pier 5, which has a sports field and promenade. Continuing north along the Greenway, residents are also near the 85-acre waterfront greenspace of Brooklyn Bridge Park, which has regular community events, sports, concerts and recreation.

Long-standing bars and elevated, yet casual dining experiences
Given the coveted real estate in the neighborhood, it’s no surprise that the restaurant and bar scene is also trendy, with a mix of old, beloved haunts and impressive newcomers. “It’s celebrated for its hip cafes, casual bars – emphasis on casual — and relaxed restaurants along Court Street, which is the main thoroughfare of Cobble Hill,” Bolger adds. Most restaurants can be found along Court Street, but cozy eateries are dotted all around the neighborhood, like La Vara, which features a vibrant selection of Spanish fare. “La Vara is a former Michelin star. Spanish style with Jewish influence. The food is exceptional, the staff is exceptional. It’s on the corner of Cobble Hill Park which is sort of the nucleus of the neighborhood,” Bolger says. The Long Island Bar, a mid-century watering hole on Atlantic Avenue, triumphantly reopened in 2014 after closing for several years, complete with a restored neon sign, Art Deco interiors, red leather booths, and impressive cocktails. Henry Public, another long-standing favorite, serves up fancy pub fare and weekend brunch. Bolger also recommends the spot: “Henry Public is an old saloon that serves high quality food, but feels like a casual, kind of worn, Irish or English-style pub. It’s a great example of what the neighborhood is drawn to.” June, a natural wine bar offers seasonal small plates and garden seating. Finally, for beloved bars, there’s also Congress Bar, which Bolger says has “hands down, without exception, the best bartenders with exceptional service,” adding that it’s “a true New York City establishment.” Shelsky’s of Brooklyn is the go-to for bagels and lox, but there’s also a Trader Joe’s and Union Market on Court Street.

Family-friendly activities and annual events
Locals can catch independent, foreign, and mainstream films at Cobble Hill Cinemas. For shopping, there are several boutiques and gift shops along Court Street, including Wanderlustre and Woods Grove. Women’s clothing shops include Rue Saint Paul, which carries sustainable wares, as well as Lily for accessories and 21Tara for gorgeous clothes and home goods. Vintage-style shops, such as Buffalo Exchange are also found in the neighborhood, but most clothing and specialty stores can be found either north of Atlantic Avenue or along Smith Street in neighboring Boerum Hill. Houses of worship include Saint Paul's Roman Catholic Church, but many are congregated in nearby Carroll Gardens or Boerum Hill. For events, there’s the annual Cobble Hill Halloween Parade, where residents gather at Cobble Hill Park and march through the streets wearing fun and spooky costumes before trick-or-treating. In the summer months, the namesake park also holds free outdoor concerts.

I've lived in Cobble Hill off and one for the past 15 years. We recently purchased another townhome to restore my in 2018 (top of the market). Unfortunately COVId and the way the economy was on the downhill before the virus has made it very difficult for my tenants (who all make $200k or more in salary) pay their rent. New York has become a little too much of an advocate for the tenant. It's wiping away our neighborhood. I work for a real estate analytics group and I fear this area will price people out. Too bad, it's a grew real family neighborhood.
