Built by acclaimed architect Benjamin Driesler in 1903, 700 E. 17th Street sits on a 5,500 sq ft corner lot and has been painstakingly restored by the current owners to blend modern features with stunning original detail.
This light-filled, turnkey home retains pristine historic character throughout — stained glass windows, a floor-to-ceiling pier mirror, beamed ceilings, dramatic original moldings, and bay windows on all sides — while offering the open layout today’s homeowner desires. The parlor floor flows beautifully for entertaining, with a large eat-in kitchen, top-of-the-line appliances, a windowed powder room, central air, two living rooms, and a formal dining room. Upstairs are 6 well-proportioned bedrooms, including a sprawling primary suite with ensuite spa bath and walk-in custom closet. The lower level features a spacious in-law suite with a separate entrance. Outside, a landscaped garden and extensive wrap-around porch create a serene private oasis.
A rare opportunity to own a grand Ditmas Park Queen Anne single-family home in the Fiske Terrace–Midwood Park Historic District, ideally situated on one of the neighborhood’s most bucolic corners along the Flatbush Malls. Steps from great amenities and the B/Q express at Newark Plaza
