Town House

Built in 1878

197 N 5th Street presents a rare opportunity to own a fully-detached townhouse with two parking spots, right in the heart of Williamsburg. Built in 1878 as the parsonage for the church next door, this 3-story, 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers a wonderfully peaceful and private refuge from the bustle of Brooklyn.

Coming home to 197 N 5th St you'll drive through wide gates, stroll past a majestic tree in your front garden, and ascend a tall stoop with a deep portico. The intricately carved woodwork of the front door and surrounding entablature all intact.

Inside you'll find tall ceiling heights, hardwood floors, and two woodburning fireplaces which could be easily brought into working order. There are windows on three sides and the potential for windows on the west side too, with views over your neighbors' gardens.

There's room to build about 1,500 additional square feet here, for a potential building size of 3,600 sf. This 18 ft wide property comes with an additional 3 ft wide access easement which runs the full 100 ft depth on the neighboring property at 199 N 5th St.

The boutiques, restaurants, other amenities that have made Williamsburg famous are close by, as are McCarren Park, Williamsburg's waterfront parks, Whole Foods, Apple, and Equinox. For a quick commute to Manhattan and the rest of the city, the Bedford L is less than two blocks away, and the Metropolitan Ave G is just three blocks away. Come see this rare Williamsburg townhouse, and make it the backdrop for your next chapter in Brooklyn.
