About this House

A detached 2-family house nestled on a lush, tree-lined street in Ditmas Park,
551 Argyle Rd is a prime opportunity to blend contemporary luxury and
convenience with vintage Brooklyn charm. It has good bones and an impressive
collection of original details, and it is ripe for renovation and
customization.

The home is three stories and sits on a gorgeous lot with a large front yard,
a private driveway, and a 2-car garage. It has a pair of duplex units that can
be combined or left as is, and it possesses an incredible number of well-
preserved original details. These include stunning hardwood floors with
original border inlays, beautiful wood moldings and doors, regal fireplaces
with brick surrounds and hardwood mantles, arched doorways, bay windows,
stained glass accents, and a front porch and terrace with white fencing and
columns.

The first unit has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and access to a huge basement
space. It has several entry points, formal living and dining rooms, a
fireplace, a windowed kitchen, and an abundance of closet space. The second

full bathrooms, a fireplace, 2 windowed kitchens, and separate living and
dining rooms. All rooms are well proportioned and have large sash windows.

vibe, its striking collection of turn-of-the-century houses, and its richly
landscaped house lots. Located in the southern half of the neighborhood, 551
Argyle Road is just steps from all the restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops
that line Coney Island and Newkirk Avenues and Cortelyou Road. It is close to
several schools, and is 5 minutes from the B and Q subway lines.

Maybe for a single person or a couple who wants to save money on rent for a few years before moving to someplace better."
