## Property Overview

!! OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 6/14 CANCELLED!! Welcome to 256 Highland Boulevard, a rare Brooklyn mansion offering the scale, character, and indoor-outdoor lifestyle that is nearly impossible to find at this price point.

 Built in 1925 and fully reimagined for modern living, this 26' wide, grand, single family residence blends historic Brooklyn architecture with a bright, open, contemporary interior. From the moment you arrive, the home makes a statement with its brick facade, pitched rooflines, private driveway, garage, and commanding presence along one of Cypress Hills' most distinctive residential corridors.

 Inside, the home opens into an expansive living area with soaring ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, recessed lighting, oversized windows, and a dramatic curved staircase that anchors the main level. The open floor plan flows seamlessly from lounge space to dining to kitchen, creating the perfect layout for entertaining, living comfortably, and hosting.

 The chef's kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring custom sage cabinetry, a large waterfall island, quartz style countertops, premium appliances, a statement range hood, designer tile backsplash, abundant storage, and multiple seating areas. Large windows bring in natural light and frame elevated neighborhood views.

 The main living room offers a warm fireplace, custom shelving, generous seating space, and direct visual connection to the kitchen and dining areas. Multiple gathering zones throughout the home make it ideal for those seeking a true mansion scale residence in Brooklyn.

 The bathrooms have been tastefully renovated with modern vanities, black fixtures, glass shower enclosures, soaking tub features, and designer tilework. Bedrooms are spacious, bright, and flexible enough for sleeping quarters, office space, guest rooms, or creative studios. The lower level adds even more usable living space: a media room, guest suite, recreation room, studio, home gym, or extended entertaining setup.

 One of the home's strongest features is its outdoor living. Multiple terraces and elevated deck spaces provide sweeping views across Brooklyn, with room for dining, lounging, grilling, and entertaining.

 The combination of interior scale, private parking, garage space, and outdoor views makes this property stand out from typical Brooklyn single family homes.

 Located near Highland Park, Cypress Hills, transit, local retail, and major Brooklyn corridors, 256 Highland Boulevard offers the feel of a private mansion with the convenience of New York City living.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

256 HIGHLAND Boulevard has one recorded sale since September 2021, the most recent for $1,481,000 in August 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sold Price | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Entire property (Single Family Residence) | 4 | $1,481,000 | August 10, 2026 | MLS |

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable house sales in East New York is $1,000,000, based on 10 sales between February 2022 and July 2026. This home is asking $1,481,000, $481,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $848,500 and $1,220,000.

- **Median closed price**: $1,000,000
- **Middle half**: $848,500 – $1,220,000
- **Based on**: 10 house sales in East New York
- **Period**: February 2022 – July 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $467/ft²

Across the 9 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 93.8% of what it originally asked. 78% of them closed below the original ask.

A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across East New York. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 93.8% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 78% of 9 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 54 days (about 8 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 94 days (about 13 weeks)

Across the 9 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 93.8% of what it originally asked. 78% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 54 days (about 8 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 10 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 94 days (about 13 weeks), based on the 10 with both dates recorded.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Based on 10 house sales in East New York, February 2022 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 3038860026. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
