About the building
294 Hicks Street is a nineteenth-century house divided into two condominium residences in the southern part of Brooklyn Heights. The building stands within the historic district designated in 1965. Three stories contain a much smaller ownership association than the apartment buildings along the neighborhood's principal commercial streets, with individual condominium deeds for the two homes.
The apartments are substantial in area: approximately 2,500 square feet in the lower home and just under 2,000 square feet above. The upper residence has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and private roof-deck space. Wood-burning fireplaces and in-unit laundry are among its features. Its 2025 offering anticipated renovation, so buyers should distinguish the historic house's underlying proportions from the extent of subsequent interior work.

What to know if you’re buying
Private use of the roof creates a practical distinction between the upper home's outdoor space and the roof structure protecting both homes. The condominium's allocation of waterproofing, deck maintenance and access is consequential in a two-owner building. Exterior alterations also fall within LPC review, and a lender must accept the project's two-residence scale.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
