## Property Overview

Rarely do you have the opportunity to take a 30-foot-wide brownstone and turn it into your dream home. This is that moment!  870 President Street is a grand, historic, extra-wide home, located on a prime, tree-lined street in Park Slope.

The Romanesque Revival facade gives the home a welcoming first impression. A low stoop leads to an arched entry on carved brackets, and a three-story bay rises above it in rough-cut stone and checkerboard masonry; a small framed stained-glass window on the second floor punctuates it, delivering an eclectic yet balanced aesthetic that commands the streetscape.

PARLOR FLOOR:
Through the double glass doors, the vestibule opens into a gallery foyer that is filled with original details: English encaustic tile floors with mosaic borders, Lincrusta wall coverings, a large fireplace, and a winding center staircase with hand-carved banisters. Off the hall, the formal parlors carry intricate woodwork, carved mantels, and wainscoting throughout. The rooms are generous and have high ceilings. This level currently holds a front parlor, a middle parlor, a formal dining room, a full bath, and excellent closets, as well as the main kitchen, which occupies a light-filled rear extension spanning over 24 feet, with windows on three sides opening directly to the small deck, with stairs leading down to the garden.

SECOND FLOOR:
A skylit staircase leads up to a spacious living room, two bedrooms, a full bath, and an eat-in kitchen that walks directly out to the roof terrace and its pergola, an open-air room above the treetops.

THIRD FLOOR:
Three generously proportioned bedrooms, a full bath, extensive closet space, a windowed laundry room, and a dedicated office suite connected to the rear bedroom.

BASEMENT:
The windowed basement, with ceilings of roughly 8'8", houses the mechanicals and multiple storage areas and can easily be converted to a gym, workshop, or studio.

Set in prime North Slope, this location places Brooklyn's cultural center at your doorstep, including the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, the Brooklyn Museum, the Public Library, the Prospect Park Zoo, and the Grand Army Plaza farmers market, with the whole of Prospect Park one block away and Seventh Avenue's dining and shops just around the corner.

The house was built in 1888 by Charles F. Burckett, a prolific Park Slope architect and builder. With historic details that are impeccably maintained, 870 President Street preserves 138 years of authentic character, offering an irreplaceable combination of scale, light and location. Bring your architect and make your dream come to life!

Based on house sales in Park Slope with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric.

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.

Sales data through September 2026.

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 3010670033. 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.
