Property Description

Truly one of Sunnyside Gardens rarest offerings, 47-18 Skillman Avenue is one of only seven properties in the neighborhood with coveted S1 zoning, allowing the possibility of a ground-floor storefront.
With nearly 2,000 square feet of interior living space and a dedicated 200 sf standalone garage, this versatile home can be enjoyed as a spacious single-family residence, configured as an income-producing two-family, or uniquely adapted to combine a primary home and store-or even a rental and store.
Currently being utilized as a two family, the upper floor features a bright and airy two-bedroom, one-bath layout with a large kitchen and charming dining nook, bathed in natural light streaming from windows on both sides of the home. Mature trees sprinkled around the property create a tranquil, leafy outlook from every room.

The lower duplex offers a generous layout with two bathrooms, including a full bath in the finished basement. This level provides flexible living and entertaining space, with direct access to the private irrigated garden and garage through the basement, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Outdoors, the 300 sf fully landscaped garden-lovingly planted by the current owners with flourishing trees-offers a secluded retreat ideal for dining, entertaining, or quiet relaxation.
Located within the charming Colonial Skillman Court of historic Sunnyside Gardens, this home combines abundant space, rare zoning flexibility, private outdoor living, and parking-all just moments from parks, cafés, and an easy commute to Manhattan. 47-18 Skillman Avenue is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own one of Sunnyside Gardens most distinctive and versatile residences.
