Property Description

The Perfect Townhouse: Light, Space, Income & Solar Savings

Welcome to this beautifully renovated two family townhouse on a quiet, tree lined block in Bushwick, one of Brooklyn's most dynamic and rapidly rising neighborhoods. Thoughtfully designed and 90% gut-renovated, this home combines modern comfort, income potential, and eco-friendly living in one perfect package.

Configured as an owner's duplex over an income-producing garden apartment, the residence offers remarkable flexibility and exceptional value.

Owner's Duplex (Floors 2-3)

Step through French doors into a sun-filled great room with soaring 12-foot ceilings and an open-plan layout that seamlessly connects living, dining, and kitchen spaces. The chef's kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances and opens directly to a decked patio and landscaped backyard, creating a natural flow for indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, including a serene primary suite with a standalone soaking tub, six custom closets, and two full laundry setups.

Garden Apartment

The private, two bedroom garden-level apartment offers one bath and a bright living/dining area ideal for generating $3,500/month in long-term rental income or up to $5,000/month as an Airbnb (averaging roughly $3,200 net monthly based on past performance). Each unit enjoys separate entrances and individual HVAC systems for maximum comfort and privacy.
