Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Set on a 60 ft x 97 ft lot, this detached three-family residence was built in 1935 and is offered strictly “AS-IS.” The current building contains approximately 3,450 square feet and totals 5,800 square feet of lot area. Located in an R5 zoning district with a maximum 2.0 FAR, the site presents an estimated maximum buildable envelope of up to 8,700 square feet, with approximately 5,278 square feet of unused floor area for an expanded buildout. The property is being sold as a developer/investor blank canvas for new multi-family development, substantial value-add expansion, or condominium conversion.

The property is positioned in Bath Beach, within School District 20, and is described as close to local transit, public safety stations, shopping, and dining. At closing, the property will be delivered vacant and broom-swept.

For builders and experienced multifamily developers, the combination of an oversized lot and the stated R5 envelope supports planning flexibility for a larger redevelopment footprint. Given the “AS-IS” delivery and significant unused floor area, buyers are encouraged to bring their architect to evaluate the site and confirm all development assumptions independently.
