About This Home
Located on a tree-lined cul-de-sac in Ditmas Park, this renovated Victorian home is an exceptional single-family property with indissoluble historic features that provide charm and value. New windows, mechanicals, plumbing, heating, and electrical make this home ready for an easy move-in. Additional smart home upgrades and a freshly landscaped backyard further enhance your quality of life.
Upon entering, you'll find an open layout that makes every room usable and communal. The kitchen's extra-wide marble countertops are a great place to chat while preparing or enjoying a meal. The restored stained-glass windows fascinate as the sun projects colorful patterns throughout the day. The wood floors, refinished on every level, showcase the original inlay. The traditional reading room, currently serving as a home office, is a versatile auxiliary space. The recently restyled half-bath is an essential convenience, rounding out this level.
One floor down, you will find a laundry room, endless storage, and even potential for a wine cellar. One floor up, and here are the first three bedrooms, each with a full-size cedar closet and plenty of windows. The full bathroom features a waterfall and jet shower, as well as double sinks and mirrors. The top floor delivers the owner's suite, and from up over the treetops, you will enjoy a generous walk-in closet, a lounge area, an architecturally striking ceiling, king-size bed, and the best bathroom of the house. Here you will find a clawfoot tub directly under a dreamy skylight.
The outdoor areas of this home are truly special. The covered front porch is a hub of activity, where you can relax with a drink, watch the children bike, greet neighbors, and enjoy the lively atmosphere of the block. The backyard is a private oasis, newly built-out for entertaining with a heated pergola, dining area, and fire pit. The double-sized lot is significantly larger than most in the area, and there is private driveway parking for two cars.
28 Wellington Court sits in one of Brooklyn's most vibrant and welcoming communities. The block is locally known for creativity and friendly faces, and it's not uncommon to enjoy impromptu jazz shows on neighboring porches. The active neighborhood association organizes block parties, hosted dinners, and seasonal events, including an epic Halloween celebration that draws hundreds of trick-or-treaters.
For dining out, you're just blocks away from iconic spots like DiFara Pizza, Mimi's Hummus, Werkstatt, and Jalsa Indian. Prospect Park and the Parade Grounds are nearby, with endless recreational opportunities such as indoor tennis, gymnastics, and horseback riding. Joan Snow Preschool, PS 217, and Brooklyn College are also within close proximity. One block away, the express train can get you into downtown Manhattan in under half an hour. This neighborhood is also a short drive to Coney Island, The Rockaways, and Riis Beach: some of the best beaches NYC has to offer.
This home has been a star in its own right, featured in over 100 shoots for publications like The New York Times and brands such as BMW, Homegoods, and Sony. Its appeal and character make it a standout property in one of Brooklyn's most desirable neighborhoods. Nearly all furniture can be included in the rental.
