Listing Notes

Charming two-family home, delivered vacant, with endless potential. Nestled in the heart of Bushwick, this home offers over 2,000 square feet across three spacious floors. This residence is ready to be customized to suit your lifestyle and needs. A perfect blend of original character and modern updates. The owner's duplex features three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, contemporary kitchens, and a full unfinished basement. This level features a living room, dining room and bedroom with a mix of classic hardwood flooring and sleek white tiles leading to the rear garden. The private outdoor space is framed by tall shrubs and lush green grass-ideal for gardening, barbecues, and entertaining. The second unit, more recently renovated, still maintains its historic charm with preserved moldings and custom finishings. It includes three generously sized bedrooms, a full bathroom, an updated kitchen, and separate living and dining areas. There is also access to the roof from this unit, which has been recently replaced and still under warranty. Enjoy ample sunlight from the skylight and oversized windows. Both units boast soaring 12-foot ceilings, enhancing the spacious feel of this 19-foot-wide property. This level features timeless tin ceilings, adding another touch of vintage appeal. Located on a picturesque tree-lined block in prime Bushwick, the home is near top-rated public schools, including PS/IS 45 Horace E. Green, PS 116 Elizabeth L. Farrell, PS5 Ronald McNair, Junior High School 383, and Bushwick Community High School. Enjoy easy access to vibrant local restaurants, shops, and nightlife. Commuting is a breeze with the L and M subway lines and nearby bus stops just minutes away. SHOWINGS WILL BEGIN AFTER MAY 13TH.
