Listing Notes

OPEN HOUSE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Welcome to 505 Macon Street, a stately three-story two-family brownstone with a basement/cellar on a picturesque block in Stuyvesant Heights. Built in 1901 and measuring approximately 2,850 square feet on a 20' x 100' lot, this pre-war townhouse offers the width, depth, and original character that Brooklyn buyers seek. The home is currently configured as two apartments across three floors, with additional space in the basement/cellar. The property represents a prime gut renovation opportunity. Inside, you'll still find some original brownstone details - period woodwork, fireplaces, and other pre-war elements - ready to be restored and incorporated into a modern vision. Bring your architect and contractor to unlock the full potential here. Options abound: create a gracious single-family residence, design an owner's triplex with garden rental, or craft a high-yield two-family investment. The 20-foot width, private backyard, and historic facade provide a strong foundation for a customized reimagining. Situated between Stuyvesant Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard, 505 Macon is surrounded by beautifully restored townhomes, vibrant neighborhood dining, and convenient access to the A/C subway lines. At $1,800,000, this is a rare chance to reinvent a classic Brooklyn townhouse in one of the borough's most desirable enclaves.
