Description
The owner’s triplex spans the parlor through the third floor....Welcome to 681 Saint Marks Avenue, a fully renovated two-family townhouse in Crown Heights featuring a four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath owner’s triplex with an additional half bath in the finished cellar, along with a separate two-bedroom, one-bath garden apartment. Originally built in 1931 and comprehensively updated in 2022, this four-story residence combines restored architectural detail with modern systems and thoughtful upgrades.

The finished cellar, exclusive to the owner’s unit, includes a half bath and provides additional flexible space.
Custom millwork, including floor-to-ceiling built-ins, pairs with upgraded mechanical systems such as Daikin HVAC to reflect the quality of the renovation. A wall-length glass door enhances natural light and garden connection, while professionally designed landscaping and solar panels complete the home’s modern improvements.
The garden-level apartment has a private entrance and direct garden access. The layout includes an open kitchen and living area, two bedrooms, a full bath, ample storage, and an in-unit washer and dryer, offering flexibility for rental income or additional living space.
Located near Franklin and Washington Avenues, Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, the property also offers convenient access to the 2, 3, 4, 5, A, and C subway lines.
