EARLY 20TH CENTURY ARCHITECTURAL GEM IN THE HEART OF CROWN HEIGHTS.
A rare opportunity awaits in this beautifully preserved Renaissance Revival townhome moments from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Perfect for those who appreciate historic architecture, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property features exquisite period details, sun-splashed rooms, and a spacious backyard. Everything from targeted enhancements to a contemporary whole-home renovation is possible depending on owner preferences and lifestyle needs.
A GRAND THREE-STORY HOME SUFFUSED WITH VINTAGE CHARM.
Residents are welcomed by a deep, gated front yard with lush gardening plots. The striking Renaissance Revival facade boasts a full-height rounded bay and a modillioned cornice. Period details run throughout, including hardwood floors with border inlays, lovely built-ins, and stained-glass accents.
Entertain in style on the Parlor Floor, where pocket doors reveal an expansive living room with a bay window and high ceilings. Beyond, a library is anchored by built-in bookshelves and an incredible fireplace, setting the scene for memorable gatherings.
The formal dining room has beamed ceilings, wainscoting, and easy access to a windowed kitchen with stone countertops, tiled floors, ample cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a pass-through breakfast bar convenient for casual meals and laying out spreads. The kitchen leads out to a large backyard with vibrant tulips, while the dining room connects to a sun-drenched sitting area that can easily be used as an art studio, reading room, and more.
On the Second Floor are three spacious bedrooms and a full bathroom. The primary bedroom enjoys a massive closet, charming bay window seats, and an en-suite bathroom, while the other two bedrooms receive gorgeous light. Completing the home is an unfinished basement offering endless potential as a home gym, media room, or income-producing rental. It includes a side-by-side washer/dryer and an in-process windowed full bathroom awaiting final touches.
TIMELESS CROWN HEIGHTS LIVING.
1198 Union Street sits on a tranquil tree-lined stretch surrounded by restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops. Residents are a few blocks from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Children’s Museum, Prospect Park Zoo, and Prospect Heights.
