About this Property
*Property could be delivered vacant* This grand, South facing, Italianate brownstone was built in 1870 when Prospect Heights was considered the highest and most desirable part of Brooklyn to develop, surrounded by wilderness at the time. Today, this magnificent area receives landmark status, and 149 Prospect is part of the exclusive Prospect Heights Historic District. Filled with original detail and stunning architectural design that is all but impossible to replicate in todays modern world this tremendous 4,950 SF building was renovated in 1930 and boasts 7 beautiful, well appointed apartments that are all in great condition. The jaw dropping first floor entryway has soaring arched doorways and intricate original moldings with 10 ft windows facing the tree-lined street. There is a spiral staircase leading through the brownstone up to the third floor with an oversized skylight above. The fourth floor has a separate stairwell leading to it and is currently set up as an expansive floor-through apartment. The 21 X 47 ft building has a solid foundation with a brick laid basement, updated utilities and seven original marble fireplaces throughout. The 700 SF private backyard is ideal for outdoor entertaining. This is a rare opportunity to purchase an Italianate brownstone that is as quintessential as Brooklyn itself, located in one of the New York City’s most desirable neighborhoods. The possibilities are endless and the potential immense—from converting the brownstone into an owner’s triplex whilst keeping a stunning garden level rental unit, to converting the entire building into one-of-a-kind luxury condos. 149 Prospect Pl. is located on one of Prospect Heights most desirable blocks, moments away from Prospect Park, Grand Army Plaza and around the corner from bustling Vanderbilt Avenue which has quickly become one of Brooklyns most popular destinations. With wonderful award winning eateries right there, including Olmstead, Mille-Feuille and Faun. The B/Q train is a stones throw away, getting you to Manhattan in less than 30 minutes! *Contact listing agent for financial setup if needed. *Showing by appointment only.
