Description
655 Humboldt Street sits in the middle of a tranquil tree-lined block at the edge of McGolrick Park, and is just a short walk to McCarren Park. The best of Greenpoint and Williamsburgs restaurants, shops, and other amenities are also close by, as are the G train and NYC buses at the end of the block. This warm and inviting two-family home retains its original stained glass vestibule door, staircase, and other details. The parlor floor ceilings, which have been dropped, could be easily restored back to their original span of over ten feet high. Currently configured with a top floor apartment and a lower duplex, 655 Humboldt Street could be converted for use as a sprawling single-family townhouse, or a duplex over a garden apartment. The building measures 2,700 square feet on three floors and comes with air rights for an additional 1,866 square feet. With a lot depth of over 126 feet, the backyard is sunny, expansive, and peaceful. Bring your architect and contractor and make this classic Greenpoint townhouse your own.
