On one of Fort Greene’s most coveted brownstone blocks, just nine houses from the park, this distinguished 1864 Italianate brownstone — with soaring floor-to-ceiling parlor windows — presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to inhabit a piece of Brooklyn history, reimagined for modern life.
The 20-foot wide home sits on a generous 100-foot… Read More lot across four stories plus cellar, currently configured as two duplexes — with a large, west-facing fenced backyard that is open, free of obstructions, and bathed in excellent sunlight. Original details abound: entry vestibule, gracious stairs and banister, period moldings, original fixtures, and a parlor floor graced by two matching marble mantles that speak to the home’s storied 160-year legacy. The façade remains in excellent condition — a strong canvas ready for transformation.
Architectural plans propose a stunning conversion into a two-family residence, complete with a backyard solarium and kitchen extension — all thoughtfully designed to honor the home’s 19th-century Brooklyn roots while embracing contemporary living. The plans have been submitted for approval, and the incoming owner can seamlessly take over the project, amend the plans, or bring their own vision. The Certificate of Non Harassment has been issued.
Fort Greene Park is just outside the front door — the view from the stoop is nothing short of spectacular. The park is also home to beloved weekend farmers and artisans markets, with subway access that puts downtown Manhattan a mere ten minutes away.
Bring your vision. The foundation for something extraordinary is already in place. Read Less
