Description

Incredible opportunity to design and build a fabulous home in a prime Williamsburg location. Nestled between two recently gut renovated houses (286 and 290 Manhattan), both are perfect blueprints to create something similar.

As the owner and renovator of 286 Manhattan Ave, I can walk you through my process from start to finish to create your own ideal home, whether that's a 2 family Alt-2 renovation or an Alt-1 like mine that allowed me to add a 4th story and an extension on all floors to maximize the sq. ft. to roughly 3,300 (including a finished basement and bulkhead).

Here are the details:

- 18.33' 75' Lot
- R6B zoning
- 2 FAR
- 3 Stories (currently)
- 2 Family
- 1,760 SF (currently)
- 2,750 SF (max allowed, EXCLUDING finished basement and bulkhead)
