Property Details
Description
Rare opportunity to own this marvelous two family townhouse in prime Prospect Heights location. This landmark gem has been updated while maintaining many of its original features. It is rare to see a property like this in such good condition! Entering the parlor floor feels like walking into a palace. You are greeted by the original doors, 11 foot high ceilings, oversized windows that allow light to fill the space and still have the original wood shudders in excellent condition. You will fall in love with the decorative fireplaces which are still in immaculate condition, located on every floor throughout this property. The townhouse is currently configured as an owners triplex over a garden apartment with access to the backyard and basement. With a few renovations the garden apartment has the potential for rental income. Bring your architect and you can really bring this space to its maximum potential. This townhouse is perfectly located in Prospect Heights, just three blocks away from Prospect Park, Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and Grand Army Plaza. Go see the cherry blossoms in bloom at the Botanical Garden, go for a stroll in Prospect Park, go to dinner on Vanderbilt Ave and go to the Farmers Market at Grand Army Plaza; this neighborhood has it all! Also very close to Barclays center and the multitude of transportation at Atlantic Ave. All renovations have been completed by licensed contractors and filed with the department of buildings.
