Description

A charming two-family townhouse nestled in the trendy neighborhood of Cobble Hill, 12 Butler Street is a prime investment and home ownership opportunity. With a lush backyard and a flexible layout, the home can easily be converted for single-family usage.

Features include gorgeous wide plank hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, classic sash windows, decorative fireplaces, a lovely redbrick facade with an arched doorway and traditional cast iron detailing, a luminous owner's triplex, and an income-producing rental unit that can be delivered vacant or with a tenant in place.

The main level of the 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom triplex contains a powder room, a formal living room, and an open-concept dining room and kitchen. The dining area has an elegant decorative fireplace with marble surround, and the kitchen has high-end stainless steel appliances and is ideal for a mobile island.

The upper and lower levels of the triplex each have a pair of spacious bedrooms with private closet space and easy access to pristine full bathrooms. A laundry closet and an elegant spiral staircase with convenient wall niches complete the unit.

The garden level rental studio boasts a large bathroom, a washer/dryer, a galley-style kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and a huge living, dining, and sleeping area that has a decorative fireplace and leads out into a private patio and garden.

12 Butler Street sits on a picturesque tree-lined lane in Cobble Hill. It is situated between the neighborhood's main pedestrian strips of Smith and Court Streets and is just steps from dozens of restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops. It is close to Boerum and Carroll Parks, and is around the corner from the F and G subway lines.
