The last thing that comes to mind when you think Bushwick real estate is a grand turn-of-the-century mansion. But alas, the hipster-filled Brooklyn neighborhood is full of surprises!
1019 Bushwick Avenue has just hit the market for the first time in 85 years, and it is a serious steal. Known as the Huberty House, this historic landmark was built in 1900 by Helmle & Huberty, who also designed the Prospect Park Boathouse as well as many other Brooklyn sites.
Thanks to the care of its most recent owners, whose family has lived here since 1937, this place is just dripping with original details - from the intricate plaster molding to the inlaid hardwood floors to the gorgeous, colorful stained glass windows peppered throughout.
This would be the perfect abode for that just-out-of-NYU rich girl who's pretending to be just like everybody else and so moves to Brooklyn like the rest of her friends. Or for the artsy family that's all anti-gentrification but is so not about to live in a two bedroom apartment..
