Elegant Legal Three-Family Townhouse with Garden Apartment & Cellar
Nestled on one of Cobble Hill’s most picturesque, tree-lined streets, 138 Kane Street presents a rare opportunity to own a vacant, impeccably maintained townhouse rich in character, flexibility, and future potential.
This legal three-family townhouse, currently configured and used as a four-family, spans three full residential floors, a finished garden apartment, and a full cellar—ideal for end-users, investors, or multi-generational living. Thoughtfully cared for and in excellent condition, the home showcases classic pre-war details including high ceilings, hardwood floors, decorative mantels, and updated mechanicals, seamlessly blending timeless charm with modern comfort.
Current configuration:
Garden Apartment: One bedroom, kitchen, family room, and full bathroom
Second Floor: Bedroom, living room, kitchen, and bathroom
Third Floor: Two bedrooms, living room, kitchen with pantry, and bathroom
Fourth Floor: Two bedrooms, living room, kitchen with pantry, and bathroom
A full cellar provides abundant storage and utility space, while the generous lot offers significant upside. With approximately 1,477 square feet of unused FAR and a maximum allowable buildable area of 6,073 square feet, the property presents excellent potential for future expansion or rooftop additions (subject to DOB approval).
Perfectly situated between Cheever Place and Henry Street, the home is moments from Cobble Hill Park, Court Street cafés and boutiques, and convenient subway access—set in one of Brooklyn’s most sought-after neighborhoods, celebrated for its historic beauty and vibrant community.
