Description

Marcus & Millichap is pleased to exclusively bring to market 159 Eckford Street, a rare boutique mixed-use property in the heart of Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Nestled on Eckford Street between Nassau Avenue and Driggs Avenue, the Property offers an end-user the extraordinary opportunity to craft a bespoke live-plus-income lifestyle in one of North Brooklyn's most enduring and sought-after neighborhoods. The building sits on a 25' x 100' lot, extending across three floors of thoughtfully configured space. The upper two floors are arranged as three floor-through, two-bedroom residences, each bathed in natural light with efficient, open layouts that lend themselves beautifully to reconfiguration.

The second floor opens directly onto private outdoor space, which is a rare luxury in Greenpoint, perfect for morning coffee, al fresco dining, or a quiet retreat above the tree-lined streets below. For the discerning buyer, the upper floors present a compelling canvas: maintain the existing residential configuration and collect strong market-rate income, or reimagine the space entirely as a sprawling owner's duplex, a true townhouse in the sky, with the flexibility to design a home that reflects your vision from the ground up. Delivered with all units vacant at closing, move immediately and make it your own. For those with an eye toward the future, available air rights above the existing structure provide the ability to expand vertically, whether to enlarge your personal residence or unlock a boutique condo development that rises above one of Brooklyn's most magnetic neighborhoods. Surrounded by Greenpoint's acclaimed dining scene, boutique retail along Manhattan Avenue and Franklin Street, and the expansive waterfront greenspace of Transmitter Park, 159 Eckford Street places you at the center of everything that makes North Brooklyn exceptional.

The neighborhood itself tells the story of extraordinary momentum. Greenpoint Landing, the transformative 22-acre master plan along the East River waterfront, is reshaping the neighborhood's skyline, with luxury towers like Eagle + West already delivered and the next phase set to bring over 1,000 additional mixed-income units across three new residential towers. Just minutes away, McCarren Park serves as the beating heart of the North Brooklyn community, a sprawling 35-acre green space beloved for its weekend farmers' markets, summer concerts, athletic fields, and the iconic McCarren Park Pool, drawing residents from Greenpoint and Williamsburg alike year-round. The G train at Nassau Avenue, the NYC Ferry at India Street, and nearby L train connections at Bedford Avenue ensure seamless access to Williamsburg, Long Island City, and Manhattan. 159 Eckford Street is more than a property it is a platform for a lifestyle. A rare chance to own a piece of Greenpoint, live beautifully, and build lasting wealth in one of Brooklyn's most resilient submarkets.

    "The dog park is pretty well maintained and friendly people and dogs mostly. Great pet supply stores and some shops have dog ice cream and dog beer. Always ask if a dog is friendly first and be a little bit more wary of people walking their dogs who are irresponsible and delusional about their dogs being aggressive. "
