Description

Historic 32 foot long four-story red-brick Federal Style house with a two-story 12.7ft. extension on a 100 foot lot. The facade has been restored and boasts an original cornice, doorway, stoop, and iron work. Details throughout includes original wide-plank floors, decorative fire places, molding, and exposed brick.

The ground floor is a separate 1-bedroom, three room apartment and is renovated with access to the yard. The parlor floor has almost 10 foot ceilings with two matching marble decorative fire places, beautiful medallion moldings and pocket doors. It is currently configured as a 1-bedroom apartment with access to the yard.

The upper duplex has a lovely private deck with many possibilities to customize your own layout.

With a C of O as a three-family, enjoy strong rental income or incorporate the other floors and use as a single family, or a double duplex. 48 Duffield is located in Downtown Brooklyn known as Bridge Plaza, which forms an oasis of a charming mix of pre Civil War and newly constructed housing. Close to Vinegar Hill, Dumbo, as well as Cobble Hill and Brooklyn Heights. Plenty of subway lines to choose from which can get you into Manhattan in a flash.

Flexible financing available - seller is willing to give a second mortgage.
