Description
Williamsburg gem! Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, 170 Skillman Avenue is a well-maintained two-family townhouse, currently configured as a single-family residence in one of Brooklyn's most desirable neighborhoods! With a significant unused Floor Area Ratio of 3, combined with low taxes, this is a fantastic opportunity to not only own your own townhouse, but also to potentially expand to 2,124 square feet! Enter this home into a spacious kitchen with a granite center island, flowing nicely into the dining room and living space, with access to a private, sunny backyard that is perfect for entertaining. The sky lit upper floor offers two spacious and bright bedrooms, and ample closet space. The large, finished lower level (not included in the square footage) adds a good deal to the size, and can be used for many possibilities - den, playroom, office, or gym. This wonderful property has great potential, versatility, and character, and features original woodwork, a curved staircase, washer/dryer, ample storage, and an actual grapevine! Conveniently situated just two blocks from the L train, this special home is surrounded by what makes Williamsburg one of the most sought after areas to live in Brooklyn.
