Property Description for 518 17th Street

Welcome home to this beautifully maintained and spacious, 20 foot wide x 50 foot deep, two family home in the heart of Windsor Terrace! Handsome hardwood floors are found throughout, and charming original details, such as wainscotting, plaster ceilings, decorative fireplaces, original moldings and built-ins abound. The home is also in great condition, having undergone a full electrical upgrade, including recessed lighting throughout in 2003, as well as new windows, bathrooms and skylights that same year. A new boiler and hot water heater were installed in 2015. In addition, the roof was re-coated in 2019, and the facade and back of the building were just repointed and re-stuccoed this past year! The home is currently configured as a two family with a floor through apartment on both the parlor and second level, plus an unfinished basement. Use as is, or convert to a single family, with living room, den, dining room, kitchen and full bath on the parlor floor and four bedrooms, and two bathrooms upstairs. Finish the basement, and enjoy a sprawling rec room as well! An additional 635 feet of air rights also come with the property, and plans have been approved by the city for an third story addition should that be of interest! 518 17th Street is conveniently located just a few doors down from Prospect Park West, ensuring all of the offerings of Windsor Terrace are yours to enjoy. In addition, Windsor Farms Market is a mere two blocks away for all of your shopping needs, the F&G train is just 3 blocks away and Prospect Park and the Farmer's Market at Bartel Pritchard Square is a mere 4 blocks. Zoned for PS 154.

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.
