About this House

1602 78th Street | Bensonhurst, Brooklyn | 3-Family Fully Detached Brick

A rare fully detached three-family brick home in Bensonhurst, offering three income-producing units plus a semi-finished basement — all set on a lot with a two-car garage on 16th Avenue, party driveway on 78th Street (allowing for an additional parking pace in the rear), and back patio.

First Floor features a spacious layout in original condition with a living room, dining room, kitchen, full bath, two bedrooms, and a small office that could serve as a third bedroom.

Second Floor contains two apartments. The front unit offers a living room, dining area, renovated kitchen, renovated three-quarter bath, and one bedroom with three generously sized closets. The rear unit includes a living room with closet, kitchen, full bath, and a well-sized bedroom with excellent natural light.

Basement is semi-finished and accessible via the side entrance shared with the first floor, as well as through a second door leading to the back patio. Recent upgrades include new gas piping and meters, updated electrical panels, and a hot water heater. A three-quarter bath is also located here.

Exterior is fully detached brick with a two-car garage, party driveway accommodating an additional vehicle, and a private back patio.
