55 S. Elliott Place is the exclusive listing of Daniella Guetta at Compass.
Original Brooklyn Renaissance Brownstone:
Bring your architect, work boots and your imagination to see this classic, legal 2-family 5 story brownstone.
55 S. Elliott Pl is part of the Fort Greene Historical District enclave-- a national historic district in Fort Greene, Brooklyn defined by a concentration of architecturally distinguished four and five story townhouses developed speculatively between 1840 and 1890 in the Greek Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, and Neo-Greco styles.
55 S. Elliott Place is on arguably one of the best blocks in all of Brooklyn, just steps away from beguiling Fort Greene Park and other Fort Greene favorite attractions.
This one-of-a-kind brownstone exudes rich history and magnificent original details throughout. Priceless treasures abound with 6 marble fireplaces, tin ceilings, soaring ceiling heights, immense windows and a stunning ornate spiral staircase in the center.
This gem of a property needs a renovation to be fully restored to its original splendor.
Currently set up with an owners triplex over a garden rental unit--the possibilities are endless, this 5 story house can easily be converted into a three family dwelling as well.
Located on the same block as Spike Lee's famous Film Studio Forty Acres, and an endless array of fantastic cafes, boutiques, markets and BAM just around the corner.
