Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by ISLAND ADVANTAGE REALTY LLC.
This two-story house at 440 Blake Avenue has five bedrooms and two full bathrooms in 1,890 square feet, and it's set up as two units. Five bedrooms over two floors leaves room for a guest room or office alongside everything else, and two full baths is a practical count for a house this size.
The house was built in 2005 and is listed as a green building. There's a washer and dryer in the unit, which is one of those everyday conveniences you notice every week. Pets are allowed, and the building is smoke-free.
Outside, there's private outdoor space over 60 square feet and a patio, along with driveway parking. A patio gives you a place to sit outside without leaving the property.
The Livonia Avenue station on the L and the Junius Street station on the 3 are each about 5 minutes on foot. Food Bazaar is about 3 minutes away, CTown about 5 minutes, and Van Dyke Playground about 3 minutes.
