About this House

Welcome to 679 St. Marks Avenue, a renovated two family Romanesque Revival dating back to 1888 and designed by acclaimed architect, C.P.H Gilbert. Gilbert, a prized architect of the Gilded Age, designed some of Brownstone Brooklyn's best architecture. Only a handful were created in North Crown Heights and this majestic home is one of those few.
Positioned on a charming tree-lined block off bustling Nostrand Avenue, this 55' deep, approx. 17' wide home sits on an extra-long 125' lot. The 4 story facade with its warm golden orange brick and gracious portico entrance invites you in.
Careful and thoughtful choices were made while remodeling both residences to blend modern day conveniences with a prewar feel.
You will feel delighted as you enter both bright, open and airy homes.
The garden duplex commands a 55' long open parlor floor featuring a U-shaped custom kitchen plus three separate living areas, high ceilings, exposed brick and decorative fireplace are enhanced by the light streaming in from the oversized windows.
Downstairs are two spacious split bedrooms each with full bathrooms and an additional study which could double perfectly as a nursery or home office. Adding to the convenience is a separate private entrance which is the perfect storage area for bikes, strollers, or scooters.
The upper duplex will stun you with cathedral high ceilings, exposed brick and an unbelievable deck off the mezzanine loft, which is a great bonus room.
Opportunities are endless with this wonderful and special property.
Choose one space for yourself while yielding a high rental income to offset your mortgage, or create a massive single family. Could also be a great 1031 exchange/investment as both units have had long term rental success and could earn $9k+/month in rental income.
Minutes from transportation and a stone's throw from all your daily comforts on Nostrand Avenue or a quick journey to countless restaurants and venues on Franklin Avenue.
This is a truly special offering that is not to be missed.

    "This area is now called crown heights. We are located on the other side of Eastern Pkwy. Atlantic ave is a border. We are up the hill. Not a dangerous neighborhood but people will litter all over your property. Dog litter everywhere. Trash from corner bodegas everywhere. I hate that about this community. "

    "There are lots of dog parks both official and unofficial, where you can have your dog off leash before 9am or after 9pm. It's important to understand that it's not ok to let your dog pee or poop on sidewalk trees. Homeowners here take a lot of pride in their trees and gardens and letting your dog relieve itself on their property (even if you clean it up) is considered deeply disrespectful."
