283 Hicks Street is a 1900 co-op in a 25 foot wide Federal style townhouse in the Brooklyn Heights Historic District. Its most distinctive setting is directly across from historic carriage houses and a firehouse on Hicks Street, with west facing apartment windows looking over the block and east facing rooms oriented toward rear gardens.
The three story, nine unit building retains the scale and character of a pre-war townhouse, including a period foyer and a small self-managed co-op structure. Apartments commonly have high ceilings, hardwood floors, exposed brick, wood burning fireplaces, and layouts that use a through floor plan to separate street and garden exposures. One especially unusual residence is a garden duplex arranged over two levels with private planted outdoor space.
Building amenities include roof access, basement storage, video entry, and in-unit washer and dryers in multiple apartments. The building is pet friendly, and pied-à-terre ownership and subletting are permitted. Maintenance is described as low, with taxes included in the co-op charges.
Brooklyn Bridge Park and Pier 5 are about two blocks west, while the Brooklyn Heights Promenade is a few blocks north. Montague Street, Atlantic Avenue, Court Street, and Cobble Hill provide restaurants and shops, and the R, 2, 3, 4, and 5 trains are within a few blocks.

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.
By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
