About This Home
As of February 2021400 Vanderbilt is a true "survivor" of a townhouse, and is available for the first time in 44 years. This landmarked 4-story Italianate/Neo-Greco brownstone is nestled in a row of 16 complimentary homes on lovely, tree-lined stretch of Vanderbilt Avenue between Greene and Gates. The house is chock-full of original detail including seven marble mantels, original banister, intact plaster moldings, original window and door moldings throughout, window shutters and original hardwood floors. The two family house is approximately 19' wide and 45' deep on four floors and sits on a 100' lot. The well-maintained home is approximately 3,342 square feet of quintessential brownstone living. Also, the property has approximately 392 square feet of FAR for further expansion. The east/west orientation of the house brings morning light to the front of the home and sunset light over the deep garden at the rear. Located near almost every NYC subway line and just a few blocks to Atlantic Terminal, it is in the heart of all that Brooklyn offers: Brooklyn Flea, Brooklyn Academy of Music, incredible restaurants and shopping, and Fort Greene Park; it is wonderfully situated in this vibrant and ever changing location.
