About This Home
Gracefully blending classic Brooklyn architecture with thoughtful modern upgrades, this converted two-family, semi-detached brick townhouse offers refined living and exceptional income flexibility in the Stuyvesant Heights / Ocean Hill section of Brooklyn—an area prized for its historic streetscapes, strong residential demand, and growing connectivity to the rest of the city. The interior has been comprehensively updated to support everyday comfort and long-term performance. Spacious layouts are complemented by upgraded mechanical systems, modernized kitchens and bathrooms, and well-considered finishes that balance durability with design. High ceilings and generous room proportions create an inviting sense of volume, while large windows introduce abundant natural light—further enhanced by the home’s semi-detached construction. The current configuration allows for multiple lifestyle and income strategies. The first-floor residence features a two-bedroom layout and can operate as a duplex with the lower level, where the additional space lends itself naturally to a recreation room, media lounge, home office, or flexible auxiliary use. This arrangement offers privacy, adaptability, and scale well suited to owner-occupancy or extended-stay use. The top floor presents a distinctive and flexible layout, presently functioning as an expansive studio-style or large one-bedroom residence, defined by open proportions and an adaptable footprint. The space supports a range of uses, from a private residence to a well-appointed guest or income-producing unit. The property’s approved short-term hotel use is thoughtfully supported by its layout and interior upgrades, positioning the home for compliant hospitality operations, extended-stay accommodations, or owner-occupancy with income potential. Set on a 28-foot-wide lot with approximately 77 feet of depth, the building benefits from a scale that is increasingly rare among Brooklyn townhouses. Zoned R6 with remaining available FAR, the property offers future flexibility for expansion or reconfiguration, subject to DOB approval. Together, the expanded width, semi-detached layout, lot depth, transit proximity, and unused FAR enhance light, livability, and long-term value positioning 124 Thomas S Boyland Street as a distinctive asset where architectural presence, legal use, and forward-looking potential align seamlessly within Stuyvesant Heights / Ocean Hill. Equally compelling is the home’s accessibility. The property is conveniently located near multiple subway lines, including the J/Z and A/C trains, providing efficient access to Downtown Brooklyn, Lower Manhattan, and Midtown—an advantage for both residents and visitors.
