Description

Introducing 556 Leonard Street, a 3-residence townhouse located on one of the most desirable, tree-lined streets in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, a few short blocks from McCarren and Msgr. McGolrick Parks.

This is an incredible opportunity for investors, developers, or end users with a vision to revitalize this classic townhouse. Built in 1910, this property is currently configured as a 3,030 sq ft (approx.) 3-unit residence, it is nestled on a 16.67 by 100 ft lot with a private backyard oasis. The renovation options are unlimited and include its current use as three separate residences, an owner's duplex with a private garden and a separate income-producing apartment, a commercial unit with two residences above or as a large private home.

All three residences are garden and street facing and retain their classic layout and details including hardwood flooring, 10.5-foot-high ceilings and marble fireplaces.

The vibrant neighborhood location at the crossroads of Greenpoint and Williamsburg is home to artisanal markets, popular boutiques, and unique, vintage clothing stores. The outdoor recreation options are many and feature multiple waterfront attractions including Domino Park. In the warmer months, appreciate the proximity to McCarren Park by enjoying the swimming pool, tennis courts, dog parks and the running track.

Indulge in the culinary scene with notable eateries such as Five Leaves and Greenpoint Fish & Lobster Co. and nearby grocery stores including Whole Foods, Trader Joe's and K-Foods. Transportation is a breeze with easy access to Manhattan and across Brooklyn via the G and L subway lines.

Embrace the charm of Greenpoint living and envision your next chapter in this classic townhouse, transforming it into the perfect backdrop for your Brooklyn lifestyle.

Though a renovation is required, this home presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Brooklyn's history and make your mark on this quintessential Greenpoint residence. Bring your architect and seize the potential of this unique property. Delivered vacant, this property is in a highly coveted location and will sell quickly.
