Property Description for 575 17th Street

This charming Windsor Terrace brick townhouse awaits your personal touch. Enter up a short stoop to the parlor level and emerge into the light filled, south-facing living room. Beyond the living room is a separate dining room, providing easy access to a large eat-in country kitchen, great for dining with family and friends. In addition, a sunroom with oversized windows is housed in the extension on this level and leads to the spacious garden. The upper level features a master bedroom with an enormous dressing area plus two more bedrooms and a den or possible fourth bedroom. Full bathrooms are found on both levels. The English basement with its wide-open space offers laundry, great storage and many possibilities for use as a rec room, workshop or office space. High ceilings, parquet floors and recent renovations to the living room and the parlor level bathroom only add to the charm of this home. This eminently affordable two family, configured as a one, needs some updating but is a great find on a tree-lined block close to Prospect Park, transportation and shopping.

Windsor Terrace | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

The tiny, comma-shaped neighborhood of Windsor Terrace is bookended between two of Brooklyn’s largest green spaces, Prospect Park and the massive Green-Wood cemetery. Aside from the presence of the Prospect Park Expressway, which dissects the neighborhood in two, this residential community offers a suburban sensibility with its tree-lined streets, low volume traffic and the low height character of its streetscape.

Many homes in the area are low to the ground, lending a suburban feel to the neighborhood, and the area has been down-zoned to maintain its low-rise appeal and character. There are plentiful brick row houses that have very low turnover. If you are lucky enough to buy or rent one, you tend to hold on to it. There are also small apartment buildings, private homes, condos and multi-family homes in a wide price range

There is commercial development along Prospect Park West, Fort Hamilton Parkway and Prospect Avenue, but even these new stores and restaurants are mostly family-owned and operated, maintaining the small-town charm. The pace of life is slower. The schools are good, which is a big draw for families with young children. The people are friendly, which gives a real sense of neighborhood and community to Windsor Terrace.
