Description

Built in 1892 by developer and architect Henry Lyons, this beautiful 4-story brownstone sits on a quiet tree-lined block in the heart of Park Slope. 721 President Street was designed with Queen Anne and Romanesque Revival style elements and is graced with a faade crafted from rough-cut ashlar stone and smooth brownstone. The building is beautifully proportioned, and the original staircase is intact. Every room gets great natural light. Configured as a double duplex plus basement, the building could easily be converted back to single family use, or switched to a garden level rental apartment with a triplex above it. The recently renovated garden level kitchen steps out directly to a sunny and quiet backyard. 721 President Street is close to the best of Park Slope, including Prospect Park, and the shops and restaurants of 5th Avenue and 7th Avenue. The N/R at Union Street and the 2/3 at Bergen Street are also close by. Delivered Vacant.
