About this home

By appointment only, email Constance directly to schedule. Built in 1901, during a period when Brooklyn's finest brownstones were being designed with greater scale, natural light, and more livable floor plans, 243 Kane Street is a 24-foot-wide residence on one of Cobble Hill's most iconic blocks. Constructed at the turn of the century, the home reflects an era when craftsmanship, proportion, and permanence were central to residential design. Five bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, five decorative fireplaces, and soaring 11-foot ceilings on both the parlor and primary suite floors create a sense of volume seldom encountered within the borough's historic housing stock. Renovated and updated over time, the residence is prepared for immediate enjoyment while inviting fresh energy and perspective to complement its storied interiors. The appeal of 243 Kane Street extends beyond dimensions and layout. It occupies a meaningful place within Cobble Hill, a neighborhood valued as much for its character and continuity as for its architecture. Few areas of New York have balanced preservation and evolution with such success. More than a landmark brownstone, this home offers the chance to preserve its history while shaping its future.
