300 Lafayette Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11238

Delivered vacant, this Clinton Hill brownstone property is set up for immediate conversion planning with approvals already secured. Current configuration is a four-family; approved plans call for conversion to a two-family residence, including a 13-foot rear extension at the garden and parlor levels. The project is described as enhancing the scale of primary living spaces while preserving the historic facade, and a substantial amount of original architectural detail remains intact. The proposed interior plan features an owner’s triplex spanning the parlor, third, and fourth floors, with a separate garden-level rental. Plans also include private outdoor space with a terrace off the primary bedroom.

This property is located within the Clinton Hill Historic District and is positioned near Pratt Institute. The listing notes that landmark approval is secured and Department of Buildings approval is delivered at closing, which is intended to support proceeding toward construction without the typical landmarked-renovation delays.

For an end user or developer, the combination of vacancy, prepared conversion drawings, and delivered DOB approval can reduce early-project friction. The plan-supported split between an owner-occupied triplex and a separate garden-level rental may appeal to buyers seeking an owner-first layout with an additional residential income component, while working within the constraints of a landmarked district.
