About This Home
Step into the grand character of Old Brooklyn at 205 Lenox Road, a stately 2-story turn-of-the-century brownstone row house offering a rare blend of historic charm, expansive space, and modern-day livability. With 2,700 sq. ft. of living space, 5 bedrooms, and 3 full bathrooms, this is the kind of home that doesn't just check boxes-it exceeds expectations. From the moment you approach its distinguished façade, this early 20th-century beauty announces itself with unmistakable presence. Inside, the home's southern exposures flood each level with continuous sunlight, illuminating its iconic barrel-front bay windows from the English basement all the way to the top floor. Once a favored gathering place for the rising social set known as the "Flatbush 500," this brownstone served as a backdrop where Brooklyn's ambitious and aspirational families entertained, connected, and made their mark. The residence sits on a 20 x 136 ft. property lot, offering proportions that are generous even by townhome standards. Inside, the layout is versatile and airy, with enough bedrooms for guests, work-from-home needs, multigenerational living, or creative space. Below, the cavernous basement adds tremendous value-ideal for storage, recreation, a workshop, or your next renovation vision. With its own front-yard walk-out egress, it's a flexible level with true potential. Just 20 minutes from Prospect Park, this home places you steps from one of the borough's most cherished outdoor escapes, along with abundant transit, shops, cafés, and cultural landmarks. Private off-street parking with space for two cars-an amenity almost impossible to find in Brooklyn and one that transforms day-to-day city living. Contact us to request the floor plan to preview its layout before you tour the best brownstone home buying value today in Brooklyn.
