About This Home
Welcome to 101 Chauncey Street, a remarkable 20-foot-wide Renaissance Revival limestone townhouse located in the heart of Stuyvesant Heights, one of Brooklyn's most architecturally significant and sought-after historic neighborhoods. Designed by acclaimed architect William Debus, this distinguished residence is one of only six elegant limestone homes that define this picturesque block overlooking Fulton Park.
Spanning approximately 3,573 square feet, this legal two-family townhouse offers an exceptional opportunity to own a home that has been lovingly preserved while providing the flexibility today's buyers seek.
From the moment you approach the striking white limestone façade, decorative balcony, and elegant wrought iron and glass entry door, it is clear this home is something special. Inside, beautiful natural light pours through the home's coveted south-facing exposure, illuminating rooms rich with original craftsmanship and timeless architectural detail.
Unlike many historic Brooklyn townhouses that have been stripped of their character in the name of renovation, 101 Chauncey Street has been thoughtfully preserved by only a handful of owners over the years. Here you'll find the craftsmanship, scale, and authenticity buyers dream of, paired with thoughtful improvements that provide the perfect canvas to create a home that reflects your own vision.
Throughout the home, you'll discover an extraordinary collection of original details, including:
• Original parquet hardwood floors with decorative inlays
• Soaring 10-foot ceilings
• Coffered ceilings in the formal living rooms
• Original pocket doors
• Beautiful stained glass windows
• Ornate ceiling medallions
• Original millwork, moldings, doors, and vintage hardware
• Skylights above the central hallway and upper landing that fill the home's interior with natural light
The renovated English basement has been thoughtfully updated with new flooring, a renovated kitchen, a full bathroom, generous storage, and upgraded electrical service. Whether incorporated into the owner's residence, used as an in-law suite, guest quarters, home office, or as part of the home's legal two-family configuration, it offers exceptional flexibility for modern Brooklyn living.
This legal two-family townhouse presents endless possibilities for today's buyer. Create an expansive owner's residence while generating rental income, accommodate multigenerational living, or invest in one of Brooklyn's most desirable historic neighborhoods.
Perfectly situated just one block from the Utica Avenue A and C subway lines, the home offers an easy commute to Manhattan while placing you moments from some of Bedford-Stuyvesant's most beloved restaurants, cafés, and neighborhood destinations, including Saraghina, Saraghina Bakery, Peaches on Lewis, Chez Oskar, Bar LunÀtico, Milk & Pull, Beso, Skal, and Nana Ramen.
Historic homes are becoming increasingly rare. Beautifully preserved historic homes with this level of original craftsmanship, generous proportions, flexible two-family configuration, and an iconic location overlooking Fulton Park are rarer still.
101 Chauncey Street is more than a townhouse. It is an opportunity to become the next steward of a remarkable piece of Brooklyn history.
