Description

Perfect opportunity for those looking to create their own dream home in one of Brooklyn's fastest booming hot spots - deal of a lifetime! With over 3000 square feet, this 3 story home is 20 feet wide by 50 feet deep with a large north facing garden. In addition, the building offers a 1000 square foot clean open basement with a 7 foot high ceiling; great to use for storage, laundry room and/or a work shop. The property presents an excellent opportunity as your own residence or investment - or both - through rentals that will yield promising high incomes. Transform the building into your own beautiful modern loft-like single home or rent the property out through use of the multiple options it has to offer, such as your personal use of the duplex with your own garden while renting out the top floor 2 bedroom unit, vice versa, etc. The property consists of many amenities, including a beautiful facade, high ceilings, wooden floors, three exposures and the prospect of an remarkable rooftop terrace with unobstructed views of the Harbor and downtown Brooklyn. Located on one of Red Hooks prime blocks, the property is only a steps away from parks and piers, great restaurants and bars, trendy shops and the Fairway Market. Shown by appointments only.

Building Information

Red Hook is a waterfront neighborhood defined by cobblestone lanes, repurposed brick warehouses, and low-rise residential buildings on a peninsula jutting into Upper New York Bay. No subway runs directly through the neighborhood; NYC Ferry's South Brooklyn route and the B61 bus provide primary transit connections to Downtown Brooklyn and Manhattan. Valentino Pier Park and the 58-acre Red Hook Recreation Area offer harbor-front green space, while the working cruise terminal at Pier 12 maintains the area's maritime heritage.
