Description

Welcome to 78 East 236th Street, a fully detached brick townhouse offering comfort, convenience, and income potential in Woodlawn, one of the Bronx's most charming neighborhoods. Set on a 25" x 100" lot, this well-maintained 2 Family home features two spacious floors plus a finished basement, a private driveway with garage (parking for two cars), and both front and back yards.

Each unit spans approximately 860 square feet and is thoughtfully laid out as a 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence with a windowed galley kitchen, dedicated dining area, and a large, light-filled living room.

The basement adds an additional 645 square feet of versatile space with a half bathroom and laundry room, perfect for creating an additional home office, rec room, or guest suite. Step outside to enjoy the expansive 1,000-square-foot backyard, ready for summer gatherings or quiet mornings in the sun.

Located just half a block from the expansive Van Cortlandt Park, New York City's second-largest park, and only minutes to vibrant retail corridors of Katonah and McLean Avenues, where you'll find beloved pubs, authentic restaurants, and experience the local lifestyle. Commuters will love the proximity to the Woodlawn’s 2, 4 and 5 Subway lines and Metro-North Station, offering quick access to Manhattan.

Live in one unit and rent the other, or invest in a stable, appreciating neighborhood; this is Woodlawn, NYC's best-kept secret.
