About This Property
1882 Hart Street - Ridgewood Two-Family with Expansion Potential
A rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a classic Ridgewood row house in the heart of the Hart-DeKalb-Stockholm Historic District.
Built circa 1920 by architect Louis Berger, who is credited with designing thousands of buildings throughout Ridgewood and Bushwick, this handsome two-family brick home showcases the distinctive craftsmanship of the neighborhood, including load-bearing masonry construction and finely detailed stone trim.
The approximately 55-foot-deep home sits on a 95-foot lot and offers approximately 1,400 square feet of unused buildable area, creating significant potential for expansion. Bring your architect, contractor, and vision to unlock the possibilities of this property.
The home retains its original character and is being offered as-is and delivered vacant, providing a clean slate for renovation, restoration, or reconfiguration.
Located on a quiet residential block tucked between Woodward and Onderdonk Avenues, the property is approximately 10 minutes from the DeKalb Avenue L train and close to the restaurants, cafés, and neighborhood amenities that make Ridgewood one of Brooklyn's most sought-after communities.
All dimensions, zoning, buildable area, and development potential should be independently verified by the buyer with their architect and appropriate professionals. Property to be delivered vacant and sold as-is.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
Built around 1920 by the architect Louis Berger, 1882 Hart Street is a two-family brick house with load-bearing masonry construction and finely detailed stone trim. Berger is credited with designing thousands of buildings in Ridgewood and Bushwick, and this house shows the local craftsmanship you'll notice up and down the block. The listing places it in the Hart-DeKalb-Stockholm Historic District.
The house is about 55 feet deep on a 95-foot lot, with about 1,400 square feet of unused buildable area. That's the part I'd look at first if you're thinking about expansion. Bring your architect early, because the listing asks buyers to verify dimensions, zoning and buildable area with their own professionals.
Buyers who like defined rooms and architectural detail often respond well to houses of this vintage, but how the house has held up and how its rooms work today tell you more than the construction date does. At 2,200 square feet with five bedrooms and two bathrooms across two stories, the house gives you a lot to plan around. It's offered as-is and delivered vacant, so the layout and finishes are open to the plan you bring.
The home has private outdoor space over 60 square feet, along with a patio. Pets are allowed, the building is smoke-free, and the listing includes green building as an amenity.
On a quiet residential block between Woodward and Onderdonk Avenues, Grover Cleveland Playground is about 3 minutes away on foot and covers 5.1 acres. The DeKalb Avenue L train is about 12 minutes on foot, and Associated Market Place is about 4 minutes away. Onderdonk Cafe is about 2 minutes away, which is convenient for a morning coffee.
