2373 Stuart Street Brooklyn NY 11229 MLS #495874

This solid brick single-family home sits proudly on an enormous 40×100 lot—an offering so rare that it truly stands out from anything else in the neighborhood. With a traditional three-bedroom duplex layout, this residence blends classic Brooklyn charm with endless potential.

The first floor welcomes you with a formal living and dining room, along with a galley kitchen. Throughout the home you’ll find beautiful parquet floors and well-preserved architectural details that add warmth and character. Upper level are three spacious bedrooms and a full bath, while the basement—featuring a separate front entrance—offers additional space, a second bath, and flexibility for recreation, storage.

Practical features include a large garage and community driveway access. But the crown jewel of this property is the land itself: a park-sized backyard and side yard that sets this home apart. Most brick homes with community driveways have little to no backyard—here, you get the opposite: an expansive outdoor space perfect for entertaining, gardening, play, or even considering future development.

With R4 zoning, the property offers the rare chance to expand or build—buyers are encouraged to consult with an architect to explore the possibilities. The home may benefit from cosmetic updates, but its solid structure and bones provide an excellent foundation for a dream renovation.

The location is equally appealing: nestled on the border of Gerritsen Beach and Marine Park, just a few blocks from Marine Park and the Salt Marsh Nature Center. Nearby transit includes the B3 on Avenue U and the B31, connecting you easily to the rest of Brooklyn.

This is more than just a house—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a double lot property with unmatched space, flexibility, and future potential in one of Brooklyn’s most desirable residential enclaves.
