Description
A beautifully proportioned, 20-foot-wide three-story townhouse offers a timeless blend of original detail and potential. Located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, and close enough to Bushwick to enjoy the best of both neighborhoods, the bright, high-ceilinged home retains many classic townhouse features. Five ornamental mantels, original crown molding, and timeless wainscoting add warmth and charm to this circa 1899 residence. Currently configured as a legal two-family, the layout includes a five-room rental on the top floor and an owner's duplex plus cellar below, with access to both front and rear south-facing garden. The home will be delivered vacant, allowing for a seamless conversion to a spacious single-family if desired. The entire property is accessible from the parlor-floor entry, offering flexibility in how the space is used. An open garden level is both versatile and inviting, with direct access to a private backyard, perfect for creating your complete indoor-outdoor retreat. Surrounded by parks, playgrounds, and community gardens, as well as many shopping and dining options, 699 Decatur is an ideal location. Nearby to transportation, terrific for anyone looking to enjoy both tranquility and convenience in one of Brooklyn’s most vibrant neighborhoods.
