## Property Overview

Welcome to 700 Monroe Street, a beautifully designed semi-detached single-family townhouse that blends warm contemporary finishes with timeless original detail. At 20 feet wide and 50 feet deep, this expansive home offers four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a powder room, and a finished recreation room across two full floors plus a finished basement level.

 From the moment you enter, the home strikes a balance between clean modern design and inviting character. Wide plank white oak flooring runs throughout, while original details including a restored decorative fireplace mantle and original newel post add warmth and architectural richness.

 The parlor level is designed for effortless entertaining and everyday living, with generous living and dining areas flowing into a stunning open kitchen. Custom thin shaker cabinetry is paired with striking Arabescato Rosso marble countertops and backsplash, creating a dramatic yet organic focal point. The kitchen is outfitted with a full suite of Bosch appliances including a cooktop, oven, speed oven, and dishwasher, along with an externally vented hood for serious cooking functionality. Polished nickel hardware and fixtures add a refined, tailored feel throughout the space.

 Upstairs, the bedroom floors are thoughtfully laid out to maximize privacy and comfort. The primary suite feels like a true retreat, featuring beautiful natural light, a custom-outfitted walk-in-closet, and a spa-like en-suite bath finished with Kohler fixtures, an Arabescato Rosso marble vanity top, and a Japanese toilet. Secondary bedrooms are generously scaled and complemented by beautifully designed bathrooms with warm, bespoke finishes and polished nickel detailing throughout.

 The finished recreation room offers incredible flexibility as a media room, playroom, home gym, office, or guest space, adding an additional layer of functionality to the home.

 Additional features include multi-zone central heating and cooling, oversized windows bringing in excellent natural light from three exposures thanks to the semi-detached layout, and carefully selected designer finishes throughout that give the home a calm, elevated, and highly custom feel.

 700 Monroe Street is a rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully crafted Brooklyn townhouse that feels both sophisticated and deeply livable.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

700 MONROE Street has one recorded sale since September 2021, the most recent for $1,990,000 in July 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Entire property (Single Family Residence) | 4 | 2,630 | $1,990,000 | $757/ft² | July 30, 2026 | MLS |

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable house sales in Stuyvesant Heights is $1,781,000, based on 23 sales between November 2021 and August 2026. This home is asking $1,990,000, $209,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,537,500 and $2,150,000.

- **Median closed price**: $1,781,000
- **Middle half**: $1,537,500 – $2,150,000
- **Based on**: 23 house sales in Stuyvesant Heights
- **Period**: November 2021 – August 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $696/ft²

Across the 21 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.1% of what it originally asked. 76% 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 Stuyvesant Heights. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 96.1% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 76% of 21 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 68 days (about 10 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 64 days (about 9 weeks)

Across the 21 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.1% of what it originally asked. 76% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 68 days (about 10 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 20 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 64 days (about 9 weeks), based on the 20 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 23 house sales in Stuyvesant Heights, November 2021 – August 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 3016420020. 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.
