About This Home
Welcome to 1221 Troy Avenue—a classic pre-war brick row house nestled on a peaceful, tree-lined street in East Flatbush. Built circa 1940, this lovingly maintained single-family home exudes the warmth, space, and enduring craftsmanship that make Brooklyn row houses so beloved. With its handsome facade, original parquet floors, and sun-filled rooms, this home is full of potential and heart.
Spanning approximately 1,623 square feet, the home features a gracious layout including 3 generously sized bedrooms and 1 bath upstairs, with a large living room framed by double paned glass windows, a formal dining room perfect for hosting, and an inviting open kitchen ready for your modern vision. Historic details like arched doorways and plaster ceiling moldings bring timeless character to the space.
The full basement offers a bonus room for storage, recreation, or possible expansion, and there's a separate garage tucked behind a private drive—a rare and valuable amenity in Brooklyn. The front yard and fenced rear garden provide lovely outdoor areas to relax or plant your roots.
East Flatbush is known for its strong sense of community, cultural richness, and elegant blocks of brick row houses—built in the early- to mid-20th century as part of Brooklyn’s expansion from farmland to thriving residential neighborhoods. These homes were designed to last, and many have remained in families for generations.
Located between Avenue D and Clarendon Road, you're just minutes from local shops, cafes, and the 2/5 subway lines, making city access easy and convenient. Whether you're a first-time buyer seeking a home with good bones or an investor ready to reimagine a classic, 1221 Troy Avenue is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Brooklyn’s architectural history.
Come see the charm, imagine the possibilities, and make this your home.
