256 Highland Boulevard, Brooklyn (Cypress Hills), NY, 11207 | $1,489,500

Welcome to 256 Highland Boulevard, a rare Brooklyn mansion offering the scale, character, and indoor-outdoor lifestyle that is nearly impossible to find at this price point.

Built in 1925 and fully reimagined for modern living, this 26' wide, grand, single family residence blends historic Brooklyn architecture with a bright, open, contemporary interior. From the moment you arrive, the home makes a statement with its brick facade, pitched rooflines, private driveway, garage, and commanding presence along one of Cypress Hills' most distinctive residential corridors.

Inside, the home opens into an expansive living area with soaring ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, recessed lighting, oversized windows, and a dramatic curved staircase that anchors the main level. The open floor plan flows seamlessly from lounge space to dining to kitchen, creating the perfect layout for entertaining, living comfortably, and hosting.

The chef's kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring custom sage cabinetry, a large waterfall island, quartz style countertops, premium appliances, a statement range hood, designer tile backsplash, abundant storage, and multiple seating areas. Large windows bring in natural light and frame elevated neighborhood views.

The main living room offers a warm fireplace, custom shelving, generous seating space, and direct visual connection to the kitchen and dining areas. Multiple gathering zones throughout the home make it ideal for those seeking a true mansion scale residence in Brooklyn.

The bathrooms have been tastefully renovated with modern vanities, black fixtures, glass shower enclosures, soaking tub features, and designer tilework. Bedrooms are spacious, bright, and flexible enough for sleeping quarters, office space, guest rooms, or creative studios. The lower level adds even more usable living space: a media room, guest suite, recreation room, studio, home gym, or extended entertaining setup.

One of the home's strongest features is its outdoor living. Multiple terraces and elevated deck spaces provide sweeping views across Brooklyn, with room for dining, lounging, grilling, and entertaining.

The combination of interior scale, private parking, garage space, and outdoor views makes this property stand out from typical Brooklyn single family homes.

Located near Highland Park, Cypress Hills, transit, local retail, and major Brooklyn corridors, 256 Highland Boulevard offers the feel of a private mansion with the convenience of New York City living.
