Description

Welcome home to 1581 Bergen Street, an intelligently configured townhouse standing on an expansive 107' deep lot. This home perfectly balances comfortable living immediately while holding tremendous opportunity in a rapidly ascending section of Brooklyn. Delivered FULLY VACANT.

The lower residence is currently a bright two-bedroom plus home-office, two-bath garden triplex with north and south exposure that seamlessly flows between levels for everyday living and entertaining. Direct access to the sprawling backyard enhances the indoor-outdoor experience. Youll also access the fully renovated lower level through the recently added private entrance. The luxurious bathroom perfectly compliments this flexible space for media, gym, office or studio.

The top floor residence provides a one-bedroom, one-bath apartment with a proven record of strong rental rates. With high ceilings and windows facing south and north, the space is filled with natural light. The bedroom includes three oversized closets. This unit is move-in ready.

The oversized backyard-nearly 63 feet deep-is fully finished with patio pavers and premium turf, offering multiple zones for dining, lounging, and entertaining. It serves as a private urban retreat, equally suited for quiet mornings or hosting at scale.

This home has been outfitted with new windows, appliances, flooring and new underpinnings to the foundation, providing a 7' clearance for a usable lower level. Further upgrades include electrical water heater, 2 sump pumps, and consolidated PVC plumbing, and new electric panel. The roof is clad in a canopy of 18 solar panels, owned outright, and features views of Manhattan.

Currently configured as a multifamily, the home offers exceptional versatility and the ability to adapt over time. The oversized lot also allows you to add significant interior space due to R6 zoning (subject to architect review and DOB approvals).

Ideally situated in one of the fastest growing parts of Crown Heights, you'll have easy access to cafés, restaurants like Almah Cafe, Chez Oskar, Milk & Pull and more. Adjacent to Bed-Stuy, youll be surrounded with multiple transit options, including the A,C, 3 and 4 trains along Utica Avenue. Whether your vision includes additional living space or long-term value creation, the potential here is immense.

Call for a private tour of your future home today. Do not miss this opportunity.
