About This Property
A spacious backyard, private driveway and built-in two-car garage distinguish this detached brick two-family at 1578 Edison Avenue. Offered at $1,300,000, the property combines generous interiors, outdoor space and the convenience of parking at home.
The second and third floors each feature three bedrooms and one full bathroom with matching layouts. The owner-occupied third-floor residence offers bright living and dining areas, wood floors and a windowed eat-in kitchen with ample cabinetry. Large windows and well-proportioned rooms create a welcoming setting with room to make it your own.
The first floor is currently owner occupied and configured as a one-bedroom apartment with a living area, kitchen, full bathroom and washer/dryer. The property is legally a two-family residence. The existing Certificate of Occupancy designates the first floor for recreation, garage and boiler space and does not authorize a separate dwelling on that level.
Outside, the generous backyard provides space for outdoor dining, gardening and entertaining, complemented by a storage shed. The driveway and built-in garage add everyday convenience.
The second-floor apartment is tenant occupied, with access subject to confirmation. Interior photographs show the first and third floors.
Contact the listing broker to arrange a private showing and explore the property’s generous living spaces, backyard and parking.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by William Raveis New York City LLC.
The second and third floors mirror each other, with three bedrooms and one full bathroom on each. The owner-occupied third floor pairs bright living and dining areas with a windowed eat-in kitchen that has plenty of cabinetry, and wood floors run through those rooms.
The first floor is currently set up as a one-bedroom with a living area, kitchen, full bathroom and washer and dryer. The listing also says the property is legally a two-family, and that the existing Certificate of Occupancy lists that level for recreation, garage and boiler space. I'd have an attorney or your broker review that paperwork before you plan around the first floor.
The backyard is large enough for outdoor dining, gardening and entertaining, and it includes a storage shed. The private driveway and built-in two-car garage handle parking, so the yard stays open for other uses.
The Middletown Rd station on the 6 train is about 5 minutes on foot, and Bufano Park and Samuel H. Young Park are each about 8 minutes away. Pruzzo's Supermarket is about 7 minutes away for everyday shopping.
The second-floor apartment is tenant occupied, and access is subject to confirmation, so check that before you plan a visit.
