Listing Notes

Spanning approximately 3, 390 square feet, this oversized property is currently configured as two residential units plus one commercial space. While the interiors are ready for restoration to modern 2026 aesthetic standards, all major mechanicals and the roof are in good working condition, providing a solid and foundation for redevelopment. This presents an opportunity for an investor to convert the property into a three-family home, or for an end user to create an expansive primary residence with an income-producing property. Some images have been virtually staged to illustrate the home's potential. 5606 Snyder Avenue is a classic 1935 brick row house rich in original architecture and offering flexibility. The property does not currently have a Certificate of Occupancy, and is taxed as a mixed-use building. A rare two-car garage adds further value. Measuring 20 feet wide by 64 feet deep, the home offers approximately 3, 390 square feet of interior space, including a garden-level rental and an oversized duplex, both primed for a full renovation. The current layout includes a garden-level two-bedroom apartment, a top floor in original condition with three generously sized bedrooms, and a parlor-level space formerly used as a doctor's office. This parlor level can be seamlessly reimagined as part of a grand owner's duplex or transformed into an additional income-producing unit. The home retains its classic red brick faade with ornamental brickwork above the windows, a covered porch, and timeless prewar charm. Behind the historic exterior, the property benefits from updated mechanicals, including a new heating system and water heater. The building is vacant, making it ideal for both investors and end users. Interest continues to grow eastward as Flatbush emerges as one of Brooklyn's most exciting and evolving neighborhoods. New cafs, restaurants, and cultural destinations are rapidly taking hold along Church Avenue, Flatbush Junction, and Nostrand Avenue. The property is conveniently located near Brooklyn College and Kings Theatre, with easy access to the 2 and 5 subway lines for a direct commute into Manhattan.
