About This Home
The Perfect Townhouse! Light, Space, Income and Solar Savings
Welcome to this beautifully renovated two-family townhouse located on a quiet tree-lined block in Bushwick, one of Brooklyn's most dynamic and up-and-coming neighborhoods. Currently configured as an owner's duplex over an income-producing rental, the home offers flexibility, comfort, and exceptional value.
Through the French doors, you'll enter a sun-drenched owner's duplex featuring three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, a spacious open-plan great room with 12-foot ceilings, and a fully renovated chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances that opens directly to a decked patio and landscaped backyard. Elegant finishes continue throughout, including a standalone soaking tub, six custom closets, and two full laundry setups.
The garden-level apartment is equally impressive, offering two bedrooms, one bath, and a bright living/dining area - perfect for generating rental income of approximately $3,500 per month or up to $5,000 per month as an Airbnb. Each unit has its own private entrance and separate heating and cooling systems for added privacy and convenience.
Enjoy four private outdoor spaces, including two balconies, a front yard/driveway, a decked backyard, and a brand-new roof deck, ideal for entertaining or relaxing under the city skyline. Sustainability meets style with solar panels that keep electric bills low, and the home has been energetically blessed and cleansed, adding a peaceful touch to this modern oasis.
The property sits on a 20' x 100' lot with a 20' x 55' building footprint, offering generous interior and exterior proportions. Conveniently located near the J, Z trains at Halsey Street and the L train at Wilson Avenue, providing easy access to Manhattan and all that Brooklyn has to offer.
