Description

Set on a leafy cul-de-sac in Ditmas Park, this beautifully restored Victorian is a rare single-family offering that blends timeless character with modern comfort. Thoughtful updates include new windows, plumbing, electrical, heating, and mechanicals, allowing for a seamless move-in. Smart home features and a recently landscaped backyard add to the everyday ease and enjoyment.

Inside, the open flow invites connection in every space. The kitchen's expansive marble counters create a natural gathering place, while original stained-glass windows scatter color across the rooms as the light shifts throughout the day. Refinished wood floors highlight the home's intricate inlay details. A traditional reading room-currently used as a home office-provides a flexible bonus space, and a refreshed powder room completes this level.

The lower floor offers abundant storage, laundry facilities, and potential for a wine cellar. Upstairs, three bright bedrooms with cedar closets are joined by a full bath featuring dual vanities, mirrors, and a spa-style shower with jets and a waterfall head. The top floor is dedicated to the primary suite, where you'll find a walk-in closet, sitting area, dramatic ceiling design, and a serene bath with a clawfoot tub placed directly beneath a skylight.

Outdoor living is equally inviting. A wide front porch sets the stage for relaxing evenings, neighborly hellos, or simply watching the block come to life. The oversized backyard-much larger than most in the area-has been designed for gatherings with a heated pergola, dining space, and fire pit. A private driveway accommodates two cars.

28 Wellington Court is part of one of Brooklyn's most vibrant communities, known for its creative spirit and warm, welcoming neighbors. Porch concerts, block parties, seasonal festivities, and an unforgettable Halloween tradition make this block especially unique.
Dining options nearby include beloved favorites such as DiFara Pizza, Mimi's Hummus, Werkstatt, and Jalsa. Prospect Park and the Parade Grounds are close at hand, offering tennis, horseback riding, and countless recreational choices. Joan Snow Preschool, PS 217, and Brooklyn College are within easy reach. The express train just a block away brings you to downtown Manhattan in under 30 minutes. Quick drives lead to Coney Island, The Rockaways, and Riis Beach.

This home has long been a favorite backdrop for photo and film shoots, appearing in publications like The New York Times and in campaigns for brands such as BMW, Sony, and HomeGoods. Its distinctive charm and livability make it one of Ditmas Park's standout properties. Nearly all furnishings are available to remain with the sale.
