Introducing 971 Bergen Street, an early twentieth-century two-family brick townhouse located in Crown Heights, nestled between Franklin and Bedford Avenues.

The garden level features an eat-in kitchen, a front-facing bedroom, and a full bath. This level opens onto the private garden, perfect for enjoying the outdoors or entertaining. The top level of the home features two sizable bedrooms, both with bright exposures, third room which can be used as a home office or bedroom, along with two full baths and a second kitchen. Additional property features include original wooden detailing, banisters, moldings, wooden flooring, marble fireplaces, an unfinished basement with a half bath, and a front yard. 971 Bergen Street is not located on a designated landmarked street, making it ideal for a developer or investor, as the property requires some attention.
