Apartments are presently occupied with a strong rent roll in place : $68,400 yearly rent roll, in place and guaranteed until September 30, 2021). Completely renovated in 2015, this 18 ft wide and 60ft deep townhouse offers luxury living in one Brooklyn's trendiest neighborhoods.

The two bedrooms, located just off the great room, have large closets and garden views/access. The bathroom is akin to your very own spa, clad in white marble tiles and with two separate showers, one with a deep soaking tub. The second unit is just as impressive and features the same thoughtfully designed finishes. It boasts three spacious bedrooms, in-unit laundry, and a skylight. The townhouse also has a finished recreation area in the basement and central AC/heating. Both units have direct backyard access, perfect for al-fresco dining or socializing under the stars.
