The townhouse at 679 Franklin Street was built in 1901, but a recent condo conversion by BFS Architect has prepared it well for the twenty-first century. Permits to expand it from three stories to five were filed at the end of 2015, and sales have begun on the new condos.

Masterfully crafted kitchens are outfitted with Caesarstone countertops, a full Miele appliance suite, and custom cabinetry with soft touch drawers, built-in organizers, and under-cabinet lighting.

Many apartments have private outdoor space, and all residents have access to a common roof terrace with beautiful Brooklyn and Manhattan skyline views. Restaurants on surrounding blocks include Cent’Anni, Mayfield, Berg’n, and Franklin Park make 679 Franklin Avenue a foodie’s paradise. Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Franklin Avenue subway stop are a short walk away.
A one-bedroom home has already entered contract, and remaining one-bedrooms start at $559K. Additionally, a two-bedroom penthouse with two private terraces off the Great Room and bedrooms is listed for $1.025 million. At an average price of $1,077 per square foot, 679 Franklin Avenue is above the Crown Heights average of $927 per square foot (per CityRealty data). See more listings here.
