Property Description for 508 17th Street
Nestled between Prospect Park and Green-Wood Cemetery, in the small-town neighborhood of Windsor Terrace just off the main drag along Prospect Park West, stands 508 17th Street, a 3-story, frame, legal 2-unit house on a 20 X 100 lot. One unit contains the garden floor, with central AC, a 400 sq ft windowed eat-in kitchen, landscaped garden, and fully built-out basement, with three individual spaces. The upper unit contains the parlor floor, with 10-foot ceilings, two bathrooms, another large eat-in kitchen, and a huge terrace. The present owners have completely remodeled over their eight years of ownership. New natural gas boiler, new hot water heater, new 200-amp electrical service, new roof on the top floor as well as the extension, new siding front and rear, new built-ins, new kitchens, new double-pane windows, new washer/dryer, and new flooring throughout. The house could use further cosmetics to one's taste, but the all-important bones are definitely there. The F/G train is two blocks away, as is Double Windsor, Krupa Grocery, Walgreen's, Kensington eateries, and just about anything else you could imagine.There's a story behind this house...Come to the open house or request a personal showing to find out! Floor plan coming soon.

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.
