Situated within the prestigious Crown Heights North II historic district and positioned on the west side of the block, 272 New York Avenue presents a legal four-family townhouse. Constructed in 1910, this building encompasses six rooms across each of its four levels, complemented by a full-length cellar. Every apartment, offering three bedrooms, seamlessly blends traditional charm with contemporary aesthetics. Renovations in two apartments feature restored pocket doors, elegant crown moldings, original wood flooring, granite countertops, and contemporary stainless steel appliances, including dishwashers, ensuring a blend of spacious, well-lit interiors and substantial storage solutions. The estate boasts a full cellar and a private backyard, enhancing its charm. The ground-level unit, with walk-out access, is ideal for professional use. Its R6 zoning and an unused Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 1880, which allows for potential expansion, increase its investment appeal, marking it as a promising venture in a sought-after area of Brooklyn.
