This restored two-family brownstone offers three levels of living space complemented by three private outdoor areas. The home presents a classic 1905 brownstone facade with preserved original exterior details, while the interior is fully reimagined. Total interior space is 2,022 sq ft above grade plus a full 674 sq ft basement. The owner’s residence spans multiple levels and includes a parlor floor with a restored cast-iron mantle, a chef’s kitchen with a 14-foot waterfall island and integrated appliances, and an upper-level primary suite with a windowed walk-in closet and a spa-like en-suite bath. A bonus room opens directly to a private rooftop terrace with tree-top views.
The garden-level one-bedroom is a fully separate, light-filled rental unit with its own kitchen and full bath, plus direct access to a landscaped, fully fenced backyard featuring artificial turf, custom planters, and cedar privacy fencing.
Configured as a two-family (B3) converted from one family, the property sits on a 19.25 ft x 100 ft lot with a 19.25 ft x 35 ft building footprint, with brick and masonry construction throughout.

Financial Insights
Estimated NOI and Cap Rate
NOI = area × lease_rate × (100 − vacancy) / 100 × (1 − expense_ratio). Net Operating Income — what the owner takes home each year before mortgage payments and income tax. Effective rent (asking rent minus vacancy losses) minus operating costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, management).
NOI / Yr
$118,583
Cap rate = NOI / list price × 100. Capitalization rate — annual return on a fully cash purchase, before financing. NOI divided by price. Higher means more income per dollar invested, but usually also more risk or older condition. 5–8% is typical for stabilized commercial property; double digits often signal distressed deals.
Cap Rate
4.57%
Suggested Prices Based on Cap Rates
Cap rates vary significantly by property type, market, and asset quality.
Typical U.S. stable-market ranges:
Multifamily — 4.5% to 6.5% (Class A in primary markets often sub-5%; Class C in secondary markets 6%+)
Industrial / Logistics — 5.0% to 7.0% (compressed heavily in recent years due to e-commerce demand)
Office — 6.5% to 9%+ (wide spread post-2020; CBD Class A vs. suburban Class B varies dramatically)
Retail — 5.5% to 8.5% (grocery-anchored on the low end, unanchored strip centers higher)
Hospitality / Hotels — 7.5% to 10%+ (higher due to operational risk)
Self-Storage — 5.5% to 7.5%
Medical Office — 6.0% to 7.5%
Net Lease (single tenant, credit) — 5.0% to 7.0% depending on tenant credit and lease term
Rules of thumb:
Primary markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, DC) trade at lower cap rates than secondary/tertiary markets, often by 100–200 bps (bps, aka basis points; 1 bp = 0.01%).
Class A assets trade ~50–150 bps tighter than Class B, and Class B tighter than Class C.
Cap rates move inversely with price — a lower cap rate means a higher price for the same NOI.
Spread to the 10-year Treasury is a common benchmark; historically 200–400 bps over the 10-year.
