Description

The property is shown by appointment only***** Positioned in the heart of Sheepshead Bay between Avenue X and Avenue Y, this fully detached, two-family residence delivers the kind of scale and flexibility that’s increasingly hard to find—and even harder to replicate. Built in 2015 and offered for the first time, the property sits on a generous 30×100 lot with a commanding 22×47 footprint, designed to support both multi-generational living and strong income potential. The upper-level functions as a primary residence, featuring two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a fully finished attic has an extra room, creating a expansion layout. A dramatic double-height living space flows seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen, giving the home volume and presence that typical two-family properties simply lack. The first floor offers a well-proportioned two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout, ideal for rental income or an extended family. Below, a fully finished lower level with a private side entrance and full bathroom adds another layer of flexibility—perfect for recreation, workspace. What separates this property from others in the area is its infrastructure and usability: three tankless water heaters, abundant storage throughout, two private parking spaces, and a deep, fully usable backyard that extends the living space outdoors ideal for entertaining, or future customization. For investors, the configuration allows for multiple income streams with minimal compromise to owner comfort. For end-users with large families, it provides true separation without sacrificing connection. Located moments from shopping, dining, and the Q and B trains, this is a property built for both immediate use and long-term upside—where size, layout, and location align in a way the market rarely offers

    "Sheepshead Bay is a great place to raise a family, depending on what area you are in… It can change from beautiful and well maintained, and then four blocks later it can look like a completely different neighborhood… I would not allow my children out to late at night as there are some bars around the neighborhood and the restaurants people do come from other places to eat there, but the crowd can change quickly. Otherwise most of sheepshead Bay is a great neighborhood. I would visit at night before I actually moved in to that particular home on that particular block."
