Description

This 5,000 sq ft, legal two-family, four story townhouse on a 25 x 100 foot lot in prime Greenpoint has been lovingly cared for by the same family for 50 years! Complete with four decorative fireplaces, high ceilings, an in-ground backyard pool, a wet bar, hot tub and private roof terrace, you can get rid of your weekend home and just chill in Brooklyn. Currently configured as an owner's triplex with a rental unit above, you have approximately 8,625 - 11,500 sq ft of FAR (varies based on Inclusionary Housing) with R7A zoning. The house is built 22' wide, so you have extra room to add an elevator. Near all of the coffee shops, restaurants, nightlife and shopping that you move to NYC for in the first place, make 151 McGuinness your dream home or investment property! The Nassau St G train is three blocks away, but if you prefer to drive, ask me about a potential private garage that might be available for sale *separately* nearby for an additional $800k.
