Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
Brick and stucco make up the exterior of this five-story walk-up, with a fully operational restaurant on the ground floor and eight apartments above it. The listing treats it as a mixed-use building, so you'd be weighing the commercial space alongside the apartments.
The restaurant space has a finished basement that is suited to refrigerator and walk-in storage. Upstairs, each apartment has a living room and a bathroom.
Pre-war age alone doesn't settle much, so the systems matter more. The building has one gas boiler, two hot water tanks that are 2 and 6 years old, 11 gas meters, 9 electrical breakers and a backflow system. If you're reviewing the mechanicals, those numbers are the place to start.
Private outdoor space of over 60 square feet is one of the more useful features here, and a city view adds to it.
Brook Av on the 6 train is about 2 minutes on foot.
