Available for the first time in two decades!! This charming, beautifully restored two-family brownstone located in Crown Heights North Historic District is the perfect home nestled on a beautiful block. This home was built and designed in 1909 by architect Frederick L. Hine, as one of eight row houses. This renaissance revival brownstone is full of charm and character. The home is 20' x 55' and sits on a 20' x 121' lot.

This brownstone is currently configured as a single family home and can easily be re-converted into a two-family home. Details include hardwood floors, 10' ceilings, multiple windows, which allow for southern and northern light exposure. The layout offers the options to utilize some of the rooms as a family room, den, or formal dining room. The current owners use the lower levels as an entertainment space, while all bedrooms and home offices are upstairs.
