2708 Bedford Ave Brooklyn, NY 11210

2708 Bedford Avenue Welcome to burgeoning Ditmas Park, better known as "Victorian Flatbush", with one of the largest collections of Victorian houses in the nation. Named for an early Dutch settler, Ditmas Park was nothing but farmland until the turn of the 20th century. Built in 1905, this semi-detached, classic Victorian townhouse sits on a 25 x 100 lot and is adorned by the highest level of curb appeal Brooklyn has to offer. Replete with porches, front yards, gabled roofs and full of stunning architectural details, 2708 Bedford Avenue continues the tradition in Central Brooklyn.

Boasting northern, western and eastern exposures, this semi-detached home is configured as a 4BR+/2BA duplex over a 2 BR/1BA rental unit. Reminiscent of the Victorian era, the home is highlighted by a well-manicured lawn, restored stoop and front porch. Youll never be in a more relaxed state than kicking your feet up and sipping your favorite drink on a warm summer night. Additional outdoor areas include newly concreted side walkway, rear yard and 2nd floor deck, all accessible from the upper duplex. An unfinished basement offers an opportunity to add living space and to get your HGTV on!

The first floor features a beautiful, floor through rental unit outfitted with shoulder-high wainscoting, a renovated kitchen and original wood floors that date back to the turn-of-the-century.
