Description

Welcome to this lovely three-bedroom, two-bath single-family home, filled with pre-war charm, a beautifully landscaped yard, and a fully finished basement — all nestled on a quiet, tree-lined block in the heart of Flatbush. Offering over 1,800 sq ft of living space (including the finished basement), this warm and inviting home begins with a lush front garden and classic covered porch. Step inside to a sunlit, open-plan layout featuring a spacious living room with curved bay windows and a seamless flow into the kitchen and dining area. The updated kitchen includes abundant cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large breakfast bar, and west-facing windows that frame views of your private garden. Off the kitchen, a convenient laundry room leads out to your serene, fully fenced backyard — complete with concrete pavers, planting beds, and a large storage shed perfect for bikes, tools, or outdoor gear. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms and a stylishly updated full bathroom with a deep tub/shower combo. The expansive finished basement provides excellent versatility as a playroom, gym, home office, media room, or creative space — with its own private backyard access. Situated just two blocks from the 2 and 5 trains at Beverly and Nostrand, enjoy a quick 30-minute ride to downtown Manhattan or a 5-minute hop to the Brooklyn Museum, Botanic Garden, and Grand Army Plaza. The B/Q trains are also nearby, and you’re surrounded by vibrant restaurants, shopping, farmer’s markets, and playgrounds. Prospect Park and the Parade Grounds are less than a mile away, offering 585+ acres of recreation: ball fields, trails, tennis, boating, off-leash dog hours, ice-skating, concerts at Celebrate Brooklyn, the nation's first urban Audubon Center, and more.

Flatbush features one of Brooklyn's most varied housing stocks, including grand detached Victorians along Ocean Avenue, limestone and brownstone rowhouses, prewar apartment buildings, and brick townhomes within landmarked enclaves like Prospect Park South and Ditmas Park. The Q, 2, and 5 trains connect the neighborhood to Manhattan, while Prospect Park's 526 acres of green space border the northern edge. The restored Kings Theatre, a 1920s-era landmark performance venue, and Erasmus Hall High School, founded in 1786, are among the area's most notable architectural features.
