Most Expensive Zip Codes: 11201: Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

For the next couple of weeks we will be checking out some homes in the most expensive zip codes in the United States, up today, 11201. This zip code in Brooklyn, New York has a median price of $2,463,000 with an appreciation rate of 325% since 1990. This area offers easy access to the city and the long history of the area means that there are many old brick and stone row houses and many picturesque streets lined with brownstones.

The home I have chosen for this zip code is in the area of Cobble Hill. Cobble Hill is a mix of Brooklyn's past along with trendy new shops and restaurants. The tree-lined neighborhoods are home to many older homes including this restored 19th Century landmark home. The double property includes an 1833 Greek Revival townhouse and a carriage house with parking. The main residence is located on a block of older townhouses. The carriage house, on the north side of the property is reached through the garden and opens onto a mews, lined with former stables and carriage houses bordering Cobble Hill Park.

The home has a wide double entry hall, large front and rear parlors with 12-foot ceilings, a butler's pantry and a sitting room. The home has been completely renovated but some of the charming architectural details from the home's history remain including the marble fireplace mantles. A rear staircase leads to the garden level family rooms and huge cook's kitchen.The third floor master suite has abedroom and bath overlooking gardens, a study and two large dressing rooms. The fourth floor is home to another double suite with a a bath and central dressing area, laundry and storage areas, and a smaller bedroom. On the fifth floor there is a skylit loft-like attic with four rooms. This home is listed at $7.875 million.
