Description

Welcome to 195 N. 5th Street, a remarkable three-family home on a tree-lined block in prime Williamsburg. Lovingly maintained and updated by its current owners for decades, 195 N. 5th features wide-plank hardwood floors and high ceilings welcoming wonderful light. The very usable layout showcases its 22' width, and there an idyllic backyard with a beautifully planted garden, picnic area, and the possibility for permitting the well-maintained roof with fantastic views! Perhaps more than anything, the interrelation of the classic moldings, trims, rounded stairs with details throughout along with modern finishes, create a unique and highly desirable opportunity. There is currently a tenant in the lower unit, but the building is available for showings and can be delivered vacant. 195 N. 5th offers significant income potential for an investor who continues its current use, converts the the to condominiums, and/or use the additional ~1500 SF of air rights. In addition, one could convert it into one of the best single-family homes in Brooklyn. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
