Discover the last affordable neighborhood in Brooklyn.

Discover the last affordable neighborhood in Brooklyn. Nestled in charming Wingate, this adorable pre-war two-family home offers an enormous private backyard and a private garage — all for the price of a one-bedroom elsewhere. Currently configured as a single family, the home has two kitchens and can convert to a two-family from day one, should you choose. Upstairs, you'll find three large bedrooms, a renovated bath and kitchen, soaring ceilings, decorative archways, and stunning hardwood floors. The south-facing living room floods the entire space with natural light from morning to dusk — and a brand new oven anchors the large kitchen. Downstairs is a one-bedroom apartment with its own private entrance, original 1940s wood paneling, and a generous eat-in kitchen. Use it as a screening room, gym, or nanny suite — or rent it out and live with income. 425 Winthrop Street measures over 21 feet wide and 46 feet deep on a 106-foot lot, with more than 3,600 square feet of unused FAR according to PropertyShark — a developer's dream hiding in plain sight. Just a block from Prospect Lefferts Gardens, where homes regularly trade in the multi-millions, Wingate has quietly become one of Brooklyn's more interesting destinations. Wingate Park — with a running track and summer concert series — is half a block away. Great coffee at Ciao Bella, Antilles, and and excellent food at Camillo, Sweet Catch, and . The 2 and 5 trains and grocery shopping are a block away; the B44 is right down the street. Genuine curb appeal with a lovely front garden and a front porch made for morning coffee. Parapet replaced and roof resealed in fall 2025; boiler and hot water heater new as of 2019.
