House for sale in Ocean Hill, Brooklyn: 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. Asking price $1,200,000. Built in 1899.

From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Welcome to 76 Rockaway Avenue, a beautifully renovated two-family brick townhouse offering impressive income, flexible living space and modern finishes in the heart of Ocean Hill. Configured as a spacious four-bedroom, two-bath duplex plus a separate two-bedroom, one-bath upper residence, the property is an excellent opportunity for investors, owner-occupants or buyers seeking additional space with rental income. Each residence features an open living and dining area, a stylish kitchen with stone countertops, stainless-steel appliances and dishwasher, renovated bathrooms, recessed lighting, ductless heating and cooling, and in-unit laundry. Exposed-brick accents bring warmth and character, while the rear outdoor space provides a welcome extension of the home for relaxing, entertaining or gardening. The seller reports combined current rent of $7,783.33 per month, delivering strong income from day one. An owner-occupant can enjoy the generously sized duplex while collecting income from the upper apartment, or an investor can benefit from two updated residences in a high-demand Brooklyn location. Transportation is exceptional, with the J and Z trains at Chauncey Street, the A and C trains at Rockaway Avenue, and additional subway and LIRR connections at Broadway Junction. Shopping, restaurants and everyday neighborhood conveniences are all close by. Public records classify the property as a two-family residence and report approximately 1,120 gross building square feet on a 16-by-71.67-foot lot with R6 zoning. This is a compelling opportunity to own a renovated, income-producing Brooklyn townhouse with two distinct residences, outdoor space and convenient access throughout New York City. All measurements, room designations, lower-level use, leases, income, expenses and legal use should be independently verified.
