About This Home
602 Bergen Street is a prime Prospect Heights two-family townhouse-an expansive triplex over a duplex that presents a rare opportunity. Live in a 2 or 3 bedroom home while collecting above-average rental income. Both apartments are spacious and bright, with generous outdoor space and warm architectural details throughout.
The upper triplex lives like a house in the sky. Its top-floor living area is open, airy, and wide, featuring exposed brick, hardwood floors, and a striking floating stair with a glass handrail. A full wall of windows floods the space with south-facing light, while sliding glass doors on the opposite side open to a decked outdoor terrace designed for grilling, dining, and easy entertaining. The open kitchen includes a granite-topped breakfast bar island and custom dining table, pendant lighting, ample counter space, and a full stainless-steel appliance suite, including a French-door refrigerator. Built in shelving stretches from the living room wall all the way up to the mezzanine floor above.
One level below, the oversized primary bedroom is framed by two large windows and tranquil treetop views. The second bedroom is equally spacious with generous closet space. A lofted 3rd bedroom/office area crowns the triplex, offering a flexible perch for sleeping, working, or reading. The bathrooms are thoughtfully finished, including a spa-like bath with a clawfoot tub and double marble vanity. Central heating and cooling and a full-size washer and dryer complete this upper-home package.
The garden duplex features its own open-concept living and dining area with hardwood floors, exposed brick, and a stainless-steel appliance suite. The kitchen stands out with custom cabinetry, a built-in storage and seating bench, and heirloom checkerboard historic stained glass that lends the space a sense of character and warmth. An oversized rear bedroom opens through sliding patio doors directly to the lush, landscaped garden, where mature plantings and a fully grown tree create a private, leafy backdrop. Just above, a hardwood deck off the parlor floor provides another outdoor zone for entertaining, grilling, or dining under the stars. Basement storage adds everyday practicality.
Set on a tree-lined block in prime Prospect Heights, 602 Bergen puts you moments from neighborhood favorites and everyday conveniences: Sofreh, Wayward Fare, Alta Calidad, Chuko, Ample Hills Creamery, Radio Bakery, and Chelsea Piers Sport Complex are all just minutes away. Not to mention the plethora of restaurants, cafés, and boutiques along Vanderbilt and Washington Avenues. Find yourself enjoying weekend strolls through the playground and dog park at Pacific Park or heading over to Grand Army Plaza-with its iconic arch and beloved farmer's market. Major cultural institutions (Brooklyn Museum, The Brooklyn Library, etc) and Brooklyn's crown jewel- Prospect Park- are all within easy reach.
With multiple outdoor spaces, central heating and cooling, a flexible two-family layout, and a coveted Prospect Heights location, 602 Bergen Street offers an inviting opportunity to live stylishly while generating income.
