This corner townhouse at 2102 Albemarle Terrace is a rare example of preserved historic character, set among Brooklyn’s most celebrated collection of 20th-century Colonial Revival architecture. Behind its architecturally significant facade, contemporary design and convenience make this Flatbush home as move-in ready as it is notable. Asking $2,999,999, the property offers another rare luxury: a driveway and a private garage.
As the largest home within the tree-lined Albemarle-Kenmore Terraces Historic District, the 3,300-square-foot townhouse has five bedrooms on three floors as well as two full baths and two half-baths. Major systems have been brought into the 21st century, including new electrical, plumbing, and roofing.
Within, you’ll find well-preserved original millwork and moldings, restored casement windows, and a mix of new and original hardwood floors. Arranged around a grand center hall, the parlor floor is anchored by a formal living room with herringbone flooring and a fireplace.
A formal dining room features built-in shelving. The dining room is served by a thoroughly modern kitchen. This floor also offers a powder room and access to the back yard for easy outdoor dining and entertaining.
On the second floor are two large bedrooms and a full bath. A third bedroom is smaller, but blessed with an attached, sun-filled “sleeping porch” space.
The home’s skylit top floor is occupied by a singularly luxurious primary suite. The main bedroom offers a dressing room, full bath, and another chamber perfect for use as a nursery or home office. A washer and dryer on this floor adds more convenience.
At the lowest level, a finished basement offers a large, open bonus space with a wet bar. Also down here are a second laundry room, a half bath, and storage.
This historic corner home is just a few blocks from Prospect Park. The Church Avenue subway station, with the B and Q trains, is a block away.
