Property Description for 70 East 4th Street

Showings by Appointment.

Welcome to 70 East 4th Street. Built in 1920, this stately 19' wide, 2-family brick home has been lovingly cared for by the same Windsor Terrace family for over 40 years.

Sitting on an extra-wide 21'.75 lot, 70 East 4th Street offers many unique and sought after features including triple exposure as it is semi- detached, an expansive fenced easement to access the back yard as well as the parlor floor and a prime location.

The exceptional back yard measures 40' wide and is landscaped with beautiful greenery: azaleas, several mature Japanese maple trees, a stunning dogwood, holly bushes, and pine trees providing ample shade. Pathways and patios create wonderful areas for grilling, entertaining, or just watching the sunset. The outdoor space boasts a former koi pond and plenty of storage for tools and comes in at a whopping 1624 square feet.

Up the stoop through the original glass paneled doors and into the foyer, you will be welcomed by the vintage charm of this 1920's home with its original glass pendant, grand staircase and high ceilings with skylight above. This parlor floor with bay windows is laid out as an owner's floor-through with kitchen in the rear with a large window looking out onto the manicured yard, a full updated bathroom, open living with decorative marble fireplace, separate dining area and a primary bedroom with the second decorative fireplace and second bedroom or dressing room. Ample closets throughout. Access to the semi - finished, windowed basement, the lower level laundry and well maintained mechanicals are on this level.

Head up to the top floor currently set up as a second unit with windowed kitchen featuring exposed brick and original tin ceiling, living room with decorative fireplace, separate dining room, full bathroom with skylight, laundry hook up and 3 bedrooms. Ample closets throughout. High ceilings on this top floor and bay windows fill the rooms with sunlight. A ladder to the roof is on this level.

70 East 4th Street is turn-key today and even has 2 split A/C units on each of the 2 floors. At over 2670 interior square feet, this home would make an exceptional single-family estate.

Please reach out for showings.

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.
