From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

On the market for the first time in 52 years! Welcome to this legal three-family property in the heart of the desirable Bensonhurst neighborhood, cherished by one family for more than half a century and now ready for its next chapter. The home is spacious, light-filled, and full of character, with high ceilings throughout, a finished basement, and a garage. It is in excellent condition and move-in ready. The first floor unit is a 3-bedroom, 1-bath unit, and upstairs there are two units with 2-bedrooms, 1-bath each. Delivered fully vacant at closing, this triplex offers rare flexibility: live in one unit and let the other two work for you, or step in as an investor and set all three to market from day one. Situated on a quiet residential block in prime 11204, you're moments from schools, shopping, and dining, with easy access to the subway, local bus lines, and the Belt Parkway for a smooth commute throughout Brooklyn and beyond.
