440 50TH Street

Built in 1901, this three-story, 20-foot wide, two-family Brooklyn brownstone features high ceilings, impressive light, and a deep south-facing garden. A recent New York Times article named Sunset Park one of 'The Next Hot Neighborhoods' and this property is located in this serene and convenient setting. Flexibility of use and configuration is one of this building's finest features. Currently used as an income-producing two family, it can be lived in comfortably as-is with minor improvements, or easily converted to a large single-family home. This impressive townhouse sits on a 20'x100' lot with a well maintained stone facade, gracious stoop. It has a spacious garden duplex for the owner and a high income rental apartment on the top floor. The garden, with its beautiful weeping cherry tree, has plenty of room for gardening and relaxing. The house still has many of its original turn-of the-century details including ornate pocket doors, columns, wood stairway and banister, and tin ceilings. The basement offers very usable space, and is the full footprint of the house with good ceiling height. Close to shopping, restaurants, and transportation, Sunset Park is a destination among today's homebuyers seeking convenience, comfort and an easy Manhattan commute. Please note.
