A Crown Heights Landmark - Historic, Versatile, and Move-In Ready Tucked away on one of Brooklyn's most coveted and intimate streets, 39 Hampton Place is a rare opportunity to own a grand four-story Neo-Tudor brick townhouse on a quiet, tree-lined block just two blocks long. Built circa 1908 and landmarked within the Crown Heights North Historic District, this architecturally distinguished two-family home designed by architect William Debus blends timeless character with modern upgrades throughout. A rare opportunity to own one of the celebrated ""Kinko"" houses - among the true jewels of Crown Heights North's housing stock. Built circa 1908 and designed by architect William Debus, this grand, four-story, two-family brick home sits on Hampton Place, a quiet, exclusive enclave just two tree-lined blocks long, tucked between St. John's Place and Sterling Place within the Crown Heights North III Historic District. The Kinko houses are an innovative type of 2-family row house built between 1905 and 1913, almost entirely in Crown Heights North. The name itself is an anagram of their original developer, the 'Kings and Westchester Land Company'. What makes them so distinctive is their double-duplex configuration: two complete homes stacked one atop the other, each with its own private front entrance. While the Kinko portfolio is famously eclectic (these picturesque homes were built in a wide range of styles) 39 Hampton Place is a fine example of the Arts and Crafts genre per the Landmarks designation report, with a recently restored and painted front facade and freshly painted ironwork. Each of the two duplex residences offers approximately 1,500-1,600 square feet, with three well-proportioned bedrooms and a full bath on the top floor and the main living spaces below. The side-by-side entrances afford the ultimate privacy for an owner and a tenant. The upper duplex (39A Hampton Place) features a beautiful, modern, sunlit eat-in kitchen with tree-top and garden views, all stainless steel appliances, and a large island with vent hood. The west-facing living room enjoys a decorative fireplace and more tree-top views. Upstairs, a stackable washer/dryer sits adjacent to a dual-entry spa bathroom outfitted with separate shower and toilet closets, radiant-floor heating, a deep-soaking tub, and dual sinks, alongside three generously proportioned bedrooms. The lower duplex (39 Hampton Place) is especially charming. The living room has an oversized window facing the street, an alcove that comfortably fits a desk, and an ornate original mantel. A separate, gracious dining area opens to garden views, and the bright, renovated eat-in kitchen is a standout - high ceilings, cherry cabinets, an island, and large windows that flood the room with light. The kitchen opens to a huge, private, landscaped backyard, and there's access to a full basement with a washer/dryer hook-up. Upstairs are three generously proportioned bedrooms and a full bath with dual sinks, granite countertop, radiant floor heating, and a whirlpool tub. Beyond the unit-level upgrades, the home has been thoughtfully maintained with a recently replaced roof, a brand-new steam boiler, and an energy retrofit (basement envelope sealing, a Wi-Fi thermostat, and weatherization of all windows and draft points for maximum heat retention). Location is exceptional. The Kingston Avenue 3 Train stop is just two blocks away on Eastern Parkway, with the 2, 4, 5, and C trains all easily accessible. The Brooklyn Children's Museum, Brower Park and Library, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Prospect Park, Grand Army Plaza, and the Farmers Market are all close at hand. Enjoy the nearby Carey Gabay Recreation Center at the Bedford/Union Armory offers a six-lane pool and wellness center; Union Market (Bedford Ave. & Lincoln Pl.) and Super Foodtown (Fulton Ave. at Brooklyn Ave.) handle groceries. The neighborhood dining scene is rich and growing: Bakerie (Albany Ave. & Sterling Pl.), Daughter Coffee Shop (St. John's & Kingston Ave.), Beouf and Bun (Kingston Ave. at Lincoln Pl.), Barbacino Pizza (Franklin Ave. at St. John's Pl.), Memphis Seoul (Lincoln Pl. at Franklin Ave.), Cent'Anni (Franklin Ave. at Sterling Pl.), Mayfield (Franklin Ave. at Prospect Pl.), Ras (Franklin Ave. at Sterling Pl.), LuLa Bagel (Nostrand Ave. at Lincoln Pl.), Colina Cuervo (Nostrand Ave. at St. John's Pl.), 3 Maples (Fulton Ave. between Kingston & Brooklyn), and The Wall - a new Mediterranean restaurant from the owner of Daughter, opening this July. For live music, Salon on Kingston (Kingston Ave. at Dean St.) rounds out the picture.
