Description
Rare Single-Family with Garage & Redevelopment Potential in Williamsburg!
This rare single-family home with a private garage offers over 3,000 SF of space across 3 levels, perfectly suited for an end-user seeking comfort and flexibility, or an investor looking for long-term upside.
The property is comprised of approx. 2,488 sq. ft. single-family residence and a 520 sq. ft. private garage, which is a rarity in Brooklyn. Spanning 3 levels, the home features 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms with thoughtfully designed living areas. The open concept main floor offers a sun-filled massive eat-in-kitchen and dining space. The living room is elevated four stairs up from the kitchen. On this same level, there are also 3 generously sized bedrooms with 2 full baths. The upper level, with its half bath and terrace over the garage, can serve as a 4th bedroom, home office, or recreational lounge. The lower level adds even more versatility with space for a family/media room, gym, or studio, and is also ideal for those who want a live/work lifestyle.
Beyond its residential appeal, 21 Thames offers significant investment potential. Property needs some TLC. The building will be delivered vacant, providing an excellent opportunity for an owner-user to occupy immediately. The site allows for up to 4,000 buildable sq. ft., with over 2,000 sq. ft. of unused air rights, making future redevelopment or expansion a real possibility.
Key Highlights:
- Just 2 blocks from the Morgan Ave L train

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI cannot say enough wonderful things about this school and the incredible support my family has received. As a parent of a child in Special Education, finding a school that truly understands, values, and supports children with diverse needs is everything — and this school does exactly that. I feel heard, respected, and included. The staff is compassionate, patient, and committed to helping every child succeed in their own unique way. My daughter has grown not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well. The progress she has made is a direct reflection of the dedication and care of the educators here.I especially want to recognize Ms. Hynes. She has been nothing short of amazing. She is supportive, approachable, and genuinely listens to my ideas and concerns as a parent. It never feels like my voice is dismissed — instead, it feels like we are working as a true team. She consistently shows that she values parent collaboration and understands that we all share the same goal: helping our children thrive.As a Special Education parent, that level of partnership means everything. Ms. Hynes takes the time to communicate, problem-solve, and ensure my daughter’s needs are being met. Her leadership and compassion make a real difference.I am truly grateful to be part of a school community that prioritizes inclusion, collaboration, and student growth. This school has created an environment where my daughter feels supported, understood, and empowered — and for that, I am deeply thankful.Parent Review2mo ago - Is 347 School Of Humanities

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe School had its ups and downs, i loved most of the teachers they taught me well and gave me great advice for the real world, Its mostly the Principal and sometimes the APs, both APs were great though, with the students also they had there days where it would be altercations but overall if your looking for more straight forward education and not much extracurricular activities then this school is for youStudent Review1y ago
