Property Details
Description
A Radiant Three-Unit Residence 785 Essex Street checks all of the boxes for the homebuyer who doesn't want to be put in a box. This East New York 3-Unit home was strategically designed to give you the versatility to live your best life. Living in this light-filled residence will be an experience that will surely raise your bar. The owner's triplex is a 3-Bed, 3-Bath home with a generous footprint. The living room is spacious with plenty of room to design your dream retreat. The galley kitchen is amazing--a generous amount of counter space and cabinetry make it the perfect place to prepare a feast for family and friends. But it's the bedrooms that will give you pause. Each bedroom easily competes and wins against the typical tiny NYC bedroom. Generous closet space with en-suite and/or nearby baths makes them the perfect place to rest after a long day. This triplex also features an immense recreation space with a bar, office space, and access to the garden. The garden is serene, with lush greenery and a patio that you will love if you love entertaining. Off of the garden is a driveway that easily fits five cars. And you also have a garage, so parking will never be an issue. There's more than a lot to love here. And this home's two additional units--a 1-Bed| 1-Bath and a 3-Bed| 2-Bath--create an optimal opportunity to generate rental income and/or have a guest suite. East New York, Brooklyn is one of the last great Brooklyn frontiers. Beautiful homes and serene streets with mature trees make this neighborhood the perfect backdrop for storybook living. Nearby you'll find all of your essential amenities; grocers, post office, movie theaters, and shopping. The shopping here is so good--Spring Creek is less than ten blocks away and has Home Depot, Nordstrom Rack, Best Buy, and so much more. And when you need more greenery, the Shirley Chisolm State Park is 5 - 10 minutes away with 407-acres of green space and trails. If you've desired an entry into the housing market, that didn't require you sacrificing your wants and needs, it is here. Find your Sweet Spot.
