Property Description for 248 Gates Ave
Grand scale Queen Anne architecture house built around 1885, this approximately 5,725 sq/ft architectural jewel has retained its full character and has never been gutted! It is part of a series of row houses designed by the Parfitt Brothers, prominent architects at that time in Brooklyn.
This is the true BedStuy/Clinton Hill beauty, in perfect working condition, ready for its next chapter.
20.83 ft wide, 60 ft deep on the bottom three floors and 45 ft deep on the top two floors.
Lot is 20.83 x 115.
Front yard and spacious backyard.
This five story house is currently configured as a 4 family, and can easily be reconfigured with an enormous owners' bottom garden triplex and two upstairs rentals, providing good rental income.
Great location at the intersection of Bedford Stuyvesant and Clinton Hill, on a quiet and pretty tree-lined block, and only a quick stroll away from Fort Greene.
Asking for $3.4M
First showings on May 23 and 24, by appointment only.

Quick Profile
Known for its historic brownstones and tight-knit enclave, Bed-Stuy has increasingly left behind its early reputation for being a “bedroom community” and transcended into a highly desirable neighborhood.
Distinct for its aesthetic, it is populated with ornate buildings characterized by cornices, friezes, finials, fluting and other marks of classic architecture. Built up during the period from 1870 to 1900, its historic district runs to the north of Jefferson Avenue, to the east of Malcolm X Boulevard and to the west of Tompkins Avenue.
At one point known as “Brooklyn’s Little Harlem,” the shape of the area has shifted toward attracting a wider demographic of people thanks to the influx of bars, restaurants, antique furniture stores and vintage boutiques. More police enforcement paired with the decline of the crack epidemic at the beginning of the 2000s also opened the door for increased development, as well as the occupation of formerly abandoned buildings and spaces.
