From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

9 Spencer Place, Brooklyn, NY - A Rare Brownstone Opportunity! A Piece of Brooklyn History Waiting to Be Reimagined! Nestled on a beautiful, tree-lined block, 9 Spencer Place is a magnificent four-story brownstone offering timeless character, architectural charm, and extraordinary potential. Featuring a 20' x 45' building footprint, plus a substantial 15' x 25' rear extension on the first and second floors, this impressive property offers approximately 5,250 square feet of total space, including the cellar. Rich in original architectural details that can be preserved and restored, this is a rare opportunity to bring a historic Brooklyn brownstone back to its former glory. Currently configured as a legal four-family residence and delivered completely vacant, the property offers exceptional flexibility. Preserve it as a four-family investment property, transform it into a spectacular single-family mansion, or explore the potential for a boutique condominium conversion. A blank canvas for homeowners, investors, and developers alike. Restore its historic elegance, create something entirely new, or combine the best of both worlds.
