About this home

Townhouse for sale in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn: 10 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms. Asking price $5,200,000. Built in 1930.

From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

265 Flatbush Avenue is a massive 24" wide x 70" deep building at the bustling intersection of Park Slope, Prospect Heights, and Downtown Brooklyn. This 7000+ square foot building can be expanded to 9600 square feet, presenting a rare opportunity to create several huge full floor residences with private elevator access above a blue chip retail space on one of the city's best retail corridors. Located right next to Barclays Center and the Atlantic Avenue transit hub, 265 Flatbush is located in the most central area in Brooklyn. In one direction you have the bustle and density of Downtown Brooklyn and in the other you have the charm and residential character of brownstone Brooklyn and Prospect Park. In need of a total renovation, this building will be a superb condominium development or multi-family income generating property.
