Property Details
Description
Located on one of Sunset Park’s historic blocks, this legal three-family brick townhouse offers a rare combination of scale, flexibility, and long-term upside. Delivered vacant, it presents a clean canvas for the next owner—whether you envision a beautifully tailored primary residence with income, a multi-generational living arrangement, or a fully optimized investment property. From the moment you arrive, the home makes a strong impression. A classic brick façade is complemented by a striking cornice, bay windows, and a proper stoop—timeless architectural details that anchor it firmly within the character of the neighborhood. Inside, the home unfolds across four full floors plus a cellar, with layouts that are both practical and adaptable. The first and second floors are configured as a substantial two-bedroom, two-bath duplex, offering generous living and dining areas along with a true eat-in kitchen. The footprint alone provides an excellent foundation for a refined owner’s residence. The third floor features an oversized one-bedroom with an open, easy flow between living, dining, and kitchen spaces, enhanced by four large closets—an uncommon and highly functional detail. The fourth floor mirrors this sense of openness, offering another one-bedroom with a standout walk-in closet that adds to its appeal. A full cellar provides meaningful utility, complete with a washer and dryer, separate boiler and hot water heater, a meter room, and additional storage—elements that support both end-users and investors alike. To the rear, a paved yard offers immediate usability for entertaining, with the potential to be transformed into a more curated outdoor retreat over time. Throughout the home, you’ll find hardwood floors, well-proportioned rooms, and natural light from multiple exposures. It’s a property defined not just by what it is today, but by what it can become. Positioned just moments from the train, and set within one of Brooklyn’s most vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods, Sunset Park continues to draw interest for its strong sense of community, historic architecture, and evolving local scene. This is a townhouse with presence, potential, and the kind of opportunity that is becoming increasingly hard to find.
