903 Saint Marks Avenue

Discover a rare piece of Brooklyn history with this grand mini-mansion, beautifully situated on one of the most admired blocks in the Crown Heights Historic District. This home is surrounded by some of the borough’s finest examples of late 19th-century architecture. From the moment you enter, you’re met with craftsmanship that’s nearly impossible to find today, ornate woodwork, stained glass, wainscoting, carved mirrors, and multiple decorative fireplaces that speak to the home’s storied past. Lovingly cared for by the same family for generations, every room reflects both the scale and elegance of its original design. The owner’s triplex begins with an impressive parlor level that flows from a formal living area into a grand hallway and an additional room that can serve as a bedroom or office. The upper floors offer five remarkably spacious bedrooms, each filled with natural light from large bay windows. One bedroom includes a Juliette balcony with a peaceful view over the tree-lined street. Bathrooms maintain their period charm, featuring antique tilework and clawfoot tubs. A separate garden apartment with two bedrooms and classic details provides flexibility — whether for rental income or as a private guest suite. Below, a finished basement with 8-foot ceilings and brick archways adds even more usable space for storage, recreation, or a creative studio. Located just minutes from the shops and dining of Kingston and Nostrand Avenues, this home also offers easy access to the LIRR, 3 and 4 trains, and the Brooklyn Children’s Museum right on the block. A residence of this size, condition, and history rarely becomes available. Don’t miss the opportunity to own a true Brooklyn landmark.
