This spacious 20-foot-wide building features a huge backyard and three levels of living space plus a sun-splashed English basement, making it ideal for conversion to a majestic single-family townhome, an owner’s duplex or triplex with additional rental units.

Inside each unit, you’ll find inlaid hardwood floors, nice ceiling heights and oversized windows, creating a bright and airy ambiance. The top two floors boast two two-bedroom, one-bathroom units with large living/dining rooms, eat-in kitchens and bedrooms overlooking the rear garden. On the parlor floor, a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment includes a sunny eat-in kitchen and access to a huge full-height English basement. This open-plan garden level offers a private entrance and bright windows looking over the gated forecourt garden and a deep 1100-square-foot backyard that faces southwest for all-day sunlight. An expansive paver patio and tall trees make it the perfect destination for al fresco dining and entertaining, while a large shed provides excellent storage for gardening supplies.

A handsome brick façade, wrought-iron fencing and a classic stoop add wonderful curb appeal to this special Brooklyn building.

This outstanding location at the border of Greenpoint and Williamsburg is at the epicenter of Brooklyn’s best amenities and attractions. Just over a block away, beloved McCarren Park offers a pool, track, tennis, a greenmarket and more, while revitalized waterfront parks deliver extraordinary outdoor space and recreation alongside iconic city views.

Explore fantastic shopping, dining and nightlife venues along Manhattan and Bedford Avenues and Franklin Street, or visit one of the chic local hotels, including the William Vale and Wythe Hotel. If live music is your passion, Warsaw, Brooklyn Bowl and the Williamsburg Hall of Music are all nearby. The G train is just 300 feet from your door, and the L train, excellent bus service, two ferry terminals and CitiBikes are within easy reach, providing easy access to the rest of the city and beyond.
