Greenwood Heights

Present an opportunity to buy in a growing neighborhood that blends character, value, and accessibility.

Welcome to Greenwood Heights

Greenwood Heights is a distinctive Brooklyn enclave located between the hillside of Green‑Wood Cemetery and the waterfront, offering a mix of historic residences, modest new construction, and rising local amenities. With quieter streets than some nearby hubs, Greenwood Heights homes for sale present an opportunity to buy in a growing neighborhood that blends character, value, and accessibility.
 

Housing & Architectural Styles

Greenwood Heights features a varied housing stock, including:
 
  • Row‑houses and small single‑/two‑family homes on tree‑lined streets, often dating to the early 1900s.

  • Low‑rise condo or coop developments and newer infill housing, particularly following rezoning and redevelopment.

  • Mix of vinyl‑sided wood‑frame homes and brick houses, giving the area a somewhat more relaxed aesthetic compared to highly landmarked nearby neighborhoods.
Whether you’re looking for a townhouse to renovate or a modern condo ready to move into, Greenwood Heights offers options across a range of styles and price points.
 

Why Buyers Are Attracted

Overlooking Green‑Wood Cemetery’s rolling hills, some blocks offer elevated views toward the Manhattan skyline and Upper New York Bay—an unusual vantage in Brooklyn.  The neighborhood maintains a more laid‑back, residential vibe compared to its high‑profile neighbors like Park Slope or Sunset Park, yet remains close to key amenities and transit.  A growing local scene: eateries, artisan shops, and creative spaces are emerging, particularly around Industry City and adjacent corridors.
 

Lifestyle, Dining & Everyday Living

Greenwood Heights supports a comfortable, neighborhood‑oriented lifestyle:
 
Quiet blocks featuring homes over storefronts, with local cafés, bakeries, and specialty food options along Fourth and Fifth Avenues. Access to greenspace via Green‑Wood Cemetery (a 478‑acre historic landscape), offering walking paths, views, and historic ambiance. Nearby amenities include the emerging retail, dining and creative hub of Industry City, giving the area a blend of quiet residential and new‑economy vitality.
 

Transit & Location

Greenwood Heights is well‑positioned for Brooklyn living:
 
  • Subway access via the D/N/R lines (stations such as 36th Street, 25th Street) provides connectivity into Manhattan and across Brooklyn.

  • For drivers and cyclists, proximity to the Prospect Expressway, Gowanus Bay, bike routes, and waterfront paths add options for mobility and recreation.

  • Its location, just south of Park Slope and north of Sunset Park, provides a distinctive middle ground—less frenetic than some, more value‐oriented than others.
