Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This fully renovated 24-foot wide brick two-family home offers two thoughtfully designed apartments with comfortable, practical layouts. The upper unit features three bedrooms, while the lower unit is configured with two bedrooms. Both levels provide spacious living areas, supporting flexible use as either owner-occupancy with rental income potential or as a straightforward investment property within a residential duplex format.

The property is set on a tree-lined block and includes private parking accessible via a shared driveway in the rear. The home is positioned for convenient access to local shopping and public transportation. The surrounding area also offers proximity by short drive to Canarsie Pier & Park, Floyd Bennett Field, and the Belt Parkway, with Rockaway Beaches within reach.

For tenants and buyers seeking a renovated, move-in-ready two-family structure, the unit mix of a three-bedroom apartment above and a two-bedroom apartment below can support a range of household needs. The availability of private parking via rear access adds a key day-to-day benefit for residents. The home’s duplex configuration and complete renovation status make it well-suited for buyers looking for a property that can be operated as a residential income asset or occupied while generating rental revenue.
