This picturesque Brooklyn Heights stable turned single-family home has undeniable curbside charm. No humble building was designed for the horses that were bedding down here: The brick facade of 2 Grace Court Alley is adorned with a gabled roofline, brick detailing and bold quoining.
Any original interior details, like horse stalls, were lost long ago but there is instead a four-bedroom, three-bath home that also has room for one horseless carriage.
While the listing dates the building to the 1840s or so, the style points to a date at the later end of the 19th century. Historic maps certainly show an alley in place in 1850 and slowly filling up with brick buildings by 1855.
