About This Home

Extraordinary single-family limestone townhouse opportunity! This charming home offers original moldings, pocket doors, original mantle, oversized windows, high ceilings, six original built-in credenzas, hardwood floors throughout, skylights and original staircase. The home measures 20'X43" and sits on an oversized lot measuring 20'X127.75', a rare find in Brooklyn. This is a fantastic opportunity to blend timeless architectural details with your unique vision, to create your dream sanctuary, in a prime Brooklyn location. This stately home is situated just one mile from the Prospect Park. The home boasts gardens in both the front and back. The exceptionally large back garden is 1260 square feet and has south-west exposures. The front garden has two landscape levels that frame the gorgeous limestone facade, which features a triple bay, the original double doors, a front porch, and a beautiful cornice to top it off. The unused FAR for this home, according to Property Shark, is 3449 and the possibilities are endless.
Beautiful treelined block made up of many exquisite high-end renovated limestones and brownstones on both sides of the street, all with well-manicured front gardens. The homeowners on this block take great pride in their "Greenest Block Award," received for maintaining lovely front gardens year after year. This home is near an abundance of amenities, including a Saturday Farmer's Market, gourmet food shops, lounges, restaurants, cafes, and the trendy Franklin Avenue. Enjoy year-round creative and educational events for the whole family at the popular Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, the iconic Grand Army Plaza Library, and the Brooklyn Museum, all within walking distance. Imagine taking a leisurely stroll up Eastern Parkway to Flatbush Avenue to catch the latest concert or basketball game at the Barclays Center, then having dinner afterwards at one of the many new area restaurants. There are plenty of transportation options, including the 2, 3, 4 and the 5 subway lines. This location is prime and this home will not last!
