Description

Heart of Williamsburg 2-Family Property with Low Taxes and a Sought-After Lot Width! Move into one unit and immediately, and start generating income by renting out the other, or bring your architect to create your dream home. With additional square footage available, you can add two more stories to maximize the property's potential. Currently, this 2-story building consists of two floor-through, 2-bedroom/1-bath apartments. The partially finished half-basement features a laundry area, storage, and a bathroom. The quiet backyard, complete with a fig tree, can be accessed from the first floor, the basement, or through the alley alongside the building, as this house is not attached to the neighboring building. LOCATION: Perfectly situated on a peaceful, tree-lined street, 185 Devoe is only a block from the vibrant Graham Ave, known for its abundance of restaurants, bars, and coffee shops that Williamsburg is famous for. Two supermarkets are just a block away, along with a variety of specialty stores, making everyday convenience just steps from your door. PARKS: McCarren Park is ten blocks north, and Cooper Park is just three blocks east, where you can enjoy farmer's markets, dog runs, running tracks, tennis courts, and more. TRANSPORTATION: The Graham Ave L train is just around the corner, providing a 10-minute commute to Manhattan. The Metropolitan Ave L and G trains are five blocks away, offering easy access to other parts of Brooklyn. Lot size: 24 × 75 ft. FAR: 0.75; MAX FAR: 2. Zoning: R6B. Allowed usable floor area: 3,600 sqft. The property will be delivered vacant, offering immediate occupancy or renovation potential.
