1723 W 1st St, Brooklyn, NY 11223

For the first time in 100 years this classic Brooklyn townhouse is available for purchase. Bought brand new in 1921, 1723 West 1st Street has remained in the family ever since. Brooklyn has had a lot of changes in the last century but, like this house, some of the best things remain exactly the same. This legal 2-Family house with a private parking spot has laid a foundation for 3 generations and it's ready for you to make it your own. Converted from a 3-bedroom single family home decades ago there is now a 1 bedroom apartment sitting over another 1 Bedroom apartment with a full basement. The entry floor has been tastefully maintained with classic details and bright, large windows. The massive living room gives way to an astounding triple-exposed dining room that is full of classic original details. This west-facing room bathes the whole floor in light for the majority of the day. The first floor bedroom overlooks the back patio, garden, and private, off-street parking space. This room has a closet and more than enough space for all your furniture. The classic kitchen is ready for your vision. There is more than enough room to transform it into a chef's dream workspace while remaining the heart of the home. Up the stairs sits a perfect 1-bedroom apartment with a massive living room looking west through the beautiful trees of West 1st Street. Walk across the beautiful original hardwood floor and a discreet door reveals a gorgeous deck that is designed for enjoying your morning coffee, glass of wine in the evening, or just a quiet hour with a good book. The basement has vintage knotted wood paneling and can easily accommodate an office, media room, workout space, as well as a separate laundry area and another half bathroom. This house has been lived in and loved for a century and, while it is totally livable and comfortable, updates will be needed throughout the property. It is being sold as-is.
