About this House

Calling all architects, developers, contractors, and anyone who wants to create their dream home on a wonderful block close to Prospect Park! Here is a fully detached, two-family house measuring 2900 square feet. Each floor is 21 × 47. The lot is 25 × 100. This wood-frame house has been fully gutted and already has approved plans for two apartments but it could also be turned into a beautiful single-family home. Finished houses in the area sell for $1.75M and much higher. For sale by owner. Text/Call 917 753 3716. Please see video linked to above or here: https://vimeo.com/426604742

220 East 4th Street is located in Kensington, right on the edge of Windsor Terrace. It is on a very special block: apart from the numerous trees and pretty two-story houses, what is really incredible is the sense of community shared by the folks who live there. There is a great mixture of long-term residents and newcomers too. Last October everyone got together and organized a massive Halloween party and closed down the street for festivities (they even got the proper permits!). Prospect Park, more beautiful and valuable than ever before, is a ten-minute walk or four minutes by bike according to Google maps. The Prospect Park Tennis Center and The Greenwood Playground are also very close.

The house feels far more spacious than it looks from the street. The ceilings are all 10 feet high except on the top floor at the front where they are 12 feet high. At 21 feet, it is wider than most brownstones.
It could be an incredible single-family house of 2900 square feet or you could keep it as a two-family house, live in the ground floor duplex with the backyard, and earn considerable income (approx. $3500/month) from the upper unit. Floor plans for this set-up have already been approved by the Dept. Of Buildings. The design for the top floor apartment has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths plus a terrace on the front of the house overlooking the pretty street. The ground floor apartment is larger: it also has three bedrooms, two baths and includes a huge rec room in the basement and a large back yard. A huge tree there provides shade from the afternoon sun.

This is an opportunity for you to create your dream home on a wonderful block, in a great neighborhood very close to Prospect Park. Even after the renovation, the total cost will be less than what it would be to purchase a fully renovated house in the area.

The house is in School District #15. Local Schools are P.S. 130 and M.S. 839. The Brooklyn Prospect Charter School is two blocks away. The F/G train (Fort Hamilton) is three blocks away. The house has easy access to numerous amenities in Kensington and Windsor Terrace.

Showings by appointment only. Sorry, no brokers.
Please note: Attached floor plans show layouts approved by Dept. of Buildings.
