## Property Overview

A rare chance to create an extraordinary Clinton Hill residence entirely your own.

Set along one of Brooklyn’s most beautiful brownstone streets, 266 Saint James Place presents the increasingly uncommon chance to transform an entire townhouse. Offered as-is and ready for a comprehensive renovation, this 5-Family home brings together generous proportions, original character, private outdoor space, and remarkable flexibility for its next chapter.

The residence sits on an 18.75' x 100' lot, with an approximately 18.75' x 45' building footprint, and unfolds across four above-grade levels plus a full cellar. At the rear, an approximately 18'9" x 42' garden offers exceptional potential for a landscaped retreat and seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Throughout the interiors, surviving period details hint at the home’s history, including the staircase, ornamental plasterwork, decorative moldings and fireplaces. These elements offer a beautiful starting point for a thoughtful restoration that balances classic Brooklyn character with a refined contemporary sensibility.

Just beyond the front door, Fulton Street’s restaurants, cafés, and neighborhood favorites are moments away, while Fort Greene, Prospect Heights, Pratt Institute, Fort Greene Park, and Downtown Brooklyn are all within easy reach. The C train at Clinton-Washington Avenues provides convenient access throughout Brooklyn and into Manhattan.
Whether envisioned as a one-of-a-kind private home or thoughtfully repositioned as a multifamily property, 266 Saint James Place offers the space, setting, and character to become something truly special.

Offered as-is. Square footage is as per 3rd party, to be independently verified. Please note, this is a cash-only opportunity.

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 July 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.
