About this House

Welcome to this well-configured two-family home in the heart of Wakefield, one of the Bronx's most convenient and tree-lined residential pockets near the Westchester border. This property offers a spacious 3-bedroom, 1-bath unit over a 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit — ideal for owner-occupants looking to offset their mortgage or investors seeking strong rental upside. The property includes on-site parking, a valuable feature in this high-demand area. Best of all, the home will be delivered fully vacant, giving buyers complete flexibility to move in, renovate, or lease up both units at market rates from day one.
Wakefield offers easy access to the 2 and 5 subway lines, Metro-North's Wakefield station, and major bus routes, along with nearby shopping, dining, and parks. Whether you're an end-user or an investor, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a vacant multi-family property with parking in a stable, transit-friendly Bronx neighborhood.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 98% nearby.
