    Overview

    Delivered vacant and zoned R6, this three-story townhouse is approximately 20 feet wide and was built circa 1920. The interior features high ceilings, original crown moldings, multiple fireplaces, and abundant natural light. It currently operates as a legal two-family residence, with a top-floor rental and an owner’s duplex below. A full unfinished basement adds valuable storage and future flexibility. An energy-efficient split-system heating and cooling system supports year-round comfort.

    The garden level opens directly to a private, south-facing backyard, creating a functional indoor-outdoor space. Located in Bushwick near the Bedford-Stuyvesant border, the home is within easy reach of parks, community gardens, shopping, dining, and public transportation, with strong walk and transit scores noted in the listing.

    With delivery in vacant condition, the property can be maintained in its current legal configuration, used to support ongoing rental income, or potentially reconfigured to suit an owner-occupant’s needs, including consideration for conversion to a single-family residence. The basement and yard provide additional utility for everyday living and practical tenant or household use.
