Description

Amazing location in coveted Clinton Hill!

Quietly set on a tree-lined street, this handsome turn of the century, 2 family townhouse has a spacious owner's duplex plus a top floor rental. A mix of contemporary and classic, many original details have been preserved including several marble fireplaces and original hardwood floors. The owner?s duplex has two bedrooms and two baths, a laundry room, private access to the backyard, and a finished basement that could be used for workspace or play. The kitchen and baths have recently been renovated. The electrical system has been completely revamped.

The attractive, sunny rental has one and a half bedrooms. The rents in the area are booming so it can generate enough income to offset a serious part of your mortgage. The building could also be reconfigured as a one family or flipped with the rental on the garden level.

The property is in close proximity to the A,C,and G trains. It?s a short walk to Pratt and like the rest of Brooklyn amenities in the area are multiplying every month.

Do not miss this great opportunity! Call us today! Michael at 917-334-8990 or Brian at 917-667-2616.
