Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This vacant corner quadplex is configured as two separate two-family homes, providing a total of two 2-bedroom apartments and two 1-bedroom apartments. The property sits on an oversized 48' x 71' lot, offering a compact, manageable residential income setup for an owner-operator or investor. A private driveway provides parking for up to five cars.

Located in Brooklyn, the building is described as just steps from the Belt Parkway and minutes from the B & Q subway lines. Daily conveniences are also within walking distance, including shopping and dining options.

With R4 zoning noted, this delivered-vacant asset is well suited for buyers seeking an income-producing residential property they can position for straightforward occupancy on day one. The mix of unit types—two 2-bedroom homes alongside two 1-bedroom homes—can appeal to tenants with different household needs while keeping operations centered on a single four-unit ownership.
