Description

A rare Crown Heights opportunity: Own a fully renovated, turn-key two-family townhouse with an energy-efficient 2020 solar panel system that slashes utility bills by nearly 80%. Qualified buyers can also take advantage of 1st time home buyer loan at 5.5% financing through Valley National Bank's Community Plus Program-making ownership both sustainable and attainable.


This stylish home features a three-bedroom owner's duplex over a two-bedroom garden apartment, complete with a new brick facade, central heat and air, and 7" Italian engineered hardwood floors throughout.


On the parlor level, two decorative brick fireplaces frame a spacious living area. The chef's kitchen showcases high-end appliances, including a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, paneled Bosch dishwasher, Samsung microwave, and wine fridge. A custom waterfall marble island with hidden storage anchors the space, while a powder room is thoughtfully tucked to the side. Glass doors open directly to a large backyard, perfect for outdoor entertaining.


The upper floor hosts a serene primary suite with a decorative fireplace, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom with rain shower. Two additional large bedrooms share an elegantly designed full bath. All bathrooms are finished with top-of-the-line fixtures and materials.


The garden apartment, with its own private entrance, includes two spacious bedrooms and an open living/dining layout. It is already rented by a trusted tenant, offering reliable supplemental income from day one.


Every detail in this home has been carefully curated by a professional designer. With high ceilings, oversized closets, abundant natural light, and a seamless solar investment already in place, this property is truly turn-key.


Nestled in the heart of Crown Heights, 139 Rochester Avenue offers unmatched convenience with multiple subway lines nearby, popular cafés and restaurants just blocks away, and local parks within easy reach.
