Welcome to 208 Brooklyn Ave a one of a kind majestic and grand landmarked limestone located in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. This stunning home boast nearly 4,000sq ft while standing 20ft wide, 51ft deep on an expansive 106ft lot.
Rich in history, this beauty originally built circa 1899 has had merely three owners and is exquisitely maintained. Walking through this home is truly an uplifting experience, moving from one carefully preserved architectural element to another.
As you make your way up the impressive staircase you’ll find two graciously sized bedrooms including a primary bedroom with tons of closet space. Also featured on the top floor is a large pass through bathroom outfitted with original double vanity, claw foot tub.
There is also a basement with great ceiling height, storage & the mechanicals are in excellent working order.
A home with this detail and condition doesn’t hit the market often. This is a tremendous once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a trophy limestone on beautiful tree lined street.
This home is nearby the Brooklyn Children's Museum, and the recently renovated 4.5 acre Brower Park. Enjoy all that the neighborhood has to offer including the restaurants of Franklin Avenue, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and Grand Army farmers market on the weekend. Currently, a single family however permits have been filed and can be converted and delivered as a legal two family. 208 Brooklyn Ave is a short stroll away, from the 2, 3 ,5, A, C & LIRR subway trains making it an easy commute around Brooklyn and into Manhattan.

This was the best production I have seen on this channel. He should be on more often

[@eileenmccarthy8507]

This home is amazing! To see the details preserved and cared for for decades is incredible. I love the woodwork, the fireplaces and the floors. True pride of ownership! Thank for the video, this should sell fast!

[@serhant]

Agreed! Thanks for watching!

[@abby8923]

Liked this home more than some of those bland modern condos. Hope it’s bought by someone who appreciates the history & preserves it ❤️

[@oMFGwTFlMFAO]

Love the introduction and going over the neighborhood. Please keep this up!

[@serhant]

Thank you!

[@Uptownlegend85]

We definitely need to see this gentleman in more videos. He did a SUPERB job!

Hello from Norway🇧🇻. My great grandparents lived in a house that was built in 1899 in Dikeman street. I have never been in Brooklyn, so this is fun to watch 👍

[@kristylynnflynn]

Absolutely stunning AND a very beautiful neighborhood. Would buy this in a heartbeat if I still lived in NY. ❤️

[@travelone753]

Love your energy, the house is a classic one of a kind!

[@abby8923]

This house is a work of art 😍 You don’t see those details anymore. Love the agent’s energy

[@BLacknesmonstaz]

O M G Beautiful

[@ventibreeze6648]

Absolutely stunning interior, it’s a shame so many have been ripped apart and modernised. The guilded age bought me here.

[@robertharris4100]

Did I miss the kitchen? I must have blinked. Would have been nice to see the closet/storage space. Washer/dryer? Interesting landmark. Love your enthusiasm.

[@NileLundgren]

FANTASTIC PRODUCTION!!!!!!!! TOP NOTCH!!!!!!

[@janeshelvock1631]

I hope whoever gets this takes care not to rip the heart out of such a unique and beautiful house..😘

[@elliewood4292]

Beautiful Home

[@enemyofmyenemy6713]

i love seeing these ass close to original as possible the wood work in some are just awesome so much history i wouldn't want to change them

[@lmgtulsa]

Wow! This home is amazing! I hope and pray the new owners don’t gut all that wood work and historical features. This is the type of home I would choose to live in. The intro to the neighbourhood is a great idea. Well done!

[@lambodudes]

[@millie_willcox__]

I really love this video

[@denekabudget]

Really beautiful, love love loveeeee IT!

[@MarciaSantos-ox1fk]

Amazing home, and a great presentation.

[@kpgetup]

my family literally grew up in that park

[@lovetricialee2009]

yas!

[@mintruth]

Stunning 😍 😍 😍

[@MPam1619]

THIS is what a brownstone should look like. It was obviously a prized estate home kept in the family. I feel sad at the prospect of the new owner ripping out all of the opulent features to replace them with modern, cheap junk.

[@evelynbloom3952]

My Dream Home😍

[@capstar633]

Needs lots of updating!!

[@jec1ny]

No, it doesn't. It needs a lot of careful preservation and restoration.

[@lsamoa]

@@jec1ny Yes it does. The dry rooms do look great but have you not seen the mouldy 1980's sinks and rotting cabinetry in the bathroom at 02:38? They need tearing off. I'm assuming the kitchen must be in even worse condition as they didn't show any of it.

[@saintjuice11]

Love it just not for me. Those floors are amazing!!

[@ThaddeusDeluxeStudio]

Nice

[@barbarahala3925]

I would love to own this townhouse

[@lazeritch11989]

But does it even have a kitchen?

[@lolgal2922]

😮

[@millie_willcox__]

Wait, only 3 owners since 1899? 😳 WOW

[@serhant]

Right! Very rare opportunity!

[@xmenVicente]

Was expecting a quick tour. It’s a nice house tho

[@therichbuddha3277]

Does it come with a ghost?

[@dillpicklefig]

Now if only I, a college student, could somehow run into several millions of dollars just in time to have this house

[@mdshamsulhaque8056]

Make sure buy can home luxury

[@ShawnMichaelVincentIngram]

All of this townhouse has to offer in esthetic luxury, yet it only has 2 bedrooms 🤔.

[@luvvideos07]

Spooky

[@loco12113]

Yeah pero like where the kitchen at tho? It's the most important aspect of an on the market home. 😶

[@hankhill3417]

Cee-lo doing it

[@Igor_ogi]

Hate it. But cool host.

[@cagno1]

"Fallen in love with the neighbourhood" that's pretty presumptuous of you. Its Brooklyn after all and no amount of window dressing will change that.

[@fidel2xl]

The 'Obama portraits' is not exactly a selling point for the BK museum...lmao

[@jec1ny]

Good video and presentation. But your wardrobe is distracting. A suit w/o a tie looks unprofessional. A suit w/o socks looks clownish.

[@rickiesmith413]

@jec1ny, 🤣🤣you can’t even afford that suit.

[@jec1ny]

@@rickiesmith413 Apparently neither could he. But FWIW I used to own about a dozen suits. I'm now down to three and I rarely bother with them because there are few occasions in the year 2021 that call for a suit. Typically for me its church at Christmas and Easter and the odd funeral or wedding. But I do actually understand how to dress, whether it's smart casual or business professional. A suit is a semi formal manner of dress and skipping the tie doesn't look chic or cool. It looks lazy and slovenly. Skipping socks as well as a tie makes you look like someone staggering in after an all night bender. In this day and age there is no reason for him to even bother with a suit. Few people outside of lawyers and undertakers wear them for work anymore. Even bankers dress casually. I'm fine with that. But, if you are going to put one on, then for the love of G** don't dress like someone who picked it up at the Salvation Army thrift store but ran out of money for the tie and socks.

[@lsamoa]

He looks great. There's more than one way to wear a suit.

[@JT-tr5cz]

@@jec1ny His trousers were way too short, but maybe that's the hip style nowadays.
