This property appeals to owner-occupants and investors alike.The parlor level of the duplex features 10-foot ceilings and generously proportioned rooms. Facing the back of the home is a kitchen and dining room set up complete with a beautiful marble fireplace and built in cabinetry. Heading towards the front of the home you will be greeted with a full bath on your left as well as additional cabinetry providing ample storage and creating a natural progression into the second room appropriate for both a bedroom or a seating area.Making your way through the ground floor of the duplex, which is accessible via both the front steps and separate gated access through the front yard, you will find a large room currently configured as a living room, but also perfectly set up for a second bedroom. Just beyond the living room conveniently lies access to a full bathroom and complete kitchen. Rounding out the lower level is a seating area appropriate for dining, a half bathroom, washer and dryer and access to the backyard. In the backyard you will find a handsomely manicured garden with a brick-laid patio benefiting from direct sun making it perfect for summer barbeques.The two floor-through units above the duplex feature similar layouts with a full-sized bathroom located just off the dining room and kitchen, a large alcove fit for either a bedroom or a seating area and another large alcove in the front of the house which can be utilized as a study or second bedroom. Each of the top two units are spacious, have excellent light with south-western exposure and would work well as rentals if youre not looking to occupy the entire home.Also worth noting is a below grade basement floor kept in great condition which houses the majority of the home's mechanicals. It can be used for any extra storage or function as a work space for the hobbyist in you.73 Newel provides the best of what Greenpoint has to offer.
