Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.
Three apartments under one roof is the first thing that shapes this brick townhouse, which stands 17 feet wide on a 100-foot lot on a tree-lined block in Green-Wood Heights. The listing puts it at 3080 square feet, about 2100 above grade and 765 below, with four bedrooms and three bathrooms across the home.
The separation across floors is the main thing to weigh. The house can work as one home or as a building with separate units, and that flexibility comes with stairs and upkeep for the whole structure, which fall to whoever owns it. That cost of ownership belongs next to the layout when you compare it with other options.
Outside, the home has a private yard and a patio, and the listing counts it as private outdoor space over 60 square feet. A private garden is a meaningful amenity in the city, and a yard gives you somewhere to sit without leaving the building.
With the home delivered vacant and the basement unfinished, the house is a clean starting point for anyone planning a renovation. I'd spend the most time on the basement, since its 765 square feet are the part that's still open.
The R train is about 5 minutes away at 25 St and about 8 minutes at Prospect Av. Detective Joseph Mayrose Park is about 8 minutes on foot, and Big Apple Fruits & Vegetables is about 4 minutes away, with Ideal Food Basket about 6 minutes off.
