802 Lincoln Place sits at the west end of the Greenest Block in Brooklyn. That’s not a boast, it’s an actual award bestowed by the Brooklyn Botanic Garden - a 52-acre natural sanctuary just a short walk away. Strolling down the sidewalk lined with trees, seasonal planters, and flower beds, it’s easy to see why this block won the award three times in the last ten years, most recently in 2024. This block is especially green because it is deeply loved by the vibrant and diverse community of neighbors who call it home. That love comes through in other ways, too, from block parties and trick-or-treating, to stoop concerts, sidewalk chalk, and neighbors who know each other’s names.
The 4-family home is a Brooklyn classic, with a stately facade and a spacious, elegant interior. Its 6.5 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms offer flexibility for families, guests, or rental income, making it perfect as a family home or an investment property. Rich hardwood floors, high ceilings, and clean lines give the space warmth without clutter, perfectly balancing openness and privacy. The airy, updated kitchen was renovated with chefs and foodies in mind, and the extra room is perfect for a home office, music room, or art studio. The basement features exceptionally high ceilings, a standout feature for the area that gives the space potential as a playroom, game room, home gym, or additional living space.
The house sits in the heart of Crown Heights, a cultural wellspring shaped by generations of immigrants, artists, and craftspeople. Buildings on this block bear the architectural imprint of Frederick L. Hine, known for beautifully portioned facades. The neighborhood’s history and diversity come alive in hole-in-the-wall spots serving authentic Caribbean, Chinese, and Mexican fare, along with local barbershops and artisanal bakeries. Cultural landmarks like the Weeksville Heritage Center and Five Myles Gallery reflect Crown Heights’ ongoing creative energy, while the Brooklyn Children’s Museum offers interactive exhibits and educational programming for younger residents just blocks away.
Prospect Park, one of the city’s most beloved green spaces, is a short walk away and offers everything from farmers markets to festivals, picnics, and playgrounds. Eclectic local schools, easy access to transit, and a true sense of neighborhood make this a truly idyllic place to live.
802 Lincoln Place offers more than space or charm. It offers a way of living rooted in connection, care, and character. If you come by for a showing, be sure to linger a little. Take fifteen minutes to stroll the block, breathe it in, and listen to the street tell you what kind of place this is. Please bear in mind the floor plans doesn't include the 3rd floor.
