About This Property

Featured in The New York Times, this charming 1920s cottage in Maxwell Heights offers a rare opportunity to own a home recognized for its architectural character and neighborhood appeal.

This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath home blends original hardwood floors, plaster walls, and abundant natural light with modern updates. Recent improvements include a new roof (2023), energy-efficient windows (2023), updated appliances, and all-new plumbing. A dedicated laundry room provides added functionality. The private backyard features a pergola, mature trees, and a pollinator garden—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Alley access and zoning allow for future DADU potential.
