The building comprises three floor-through apartments, a partial English basement, and a large backyard. This quintessential Greenpoint townhouse can be easily adapted for use as a one or two-family home, or kept as a high-income 3-family with tremendous appreciation potential. Many historic details remain, including the original staircase, six marble fireplace mantles, wide plank floors and tin ceilings.

147 Eckford Street comprises approximately 2,050 sf as currently built across three floors, and could be expanded with up to 2,168 additional square feet for a total building size of 4,218 sf. The partial English basement, which has a door and windows that open to the backyard, provides an additional bonus of 680 sf, and would be perfect for a media room, rec room, office and many other uses.

147 Eckford Street is close to the celebrated restaurants, boutiques, music venues, and other amenities that make Greenpoint and Williamsburg such desirable places to live. McCarren Park, McGolrick Park, and Greenpoint’s waterfront parks are also just a few blocks away. For a quick commute to Manhattan and the rest of Brooklyn, the G train is around the corner on Nassau Avenue, and the L train is close by at Bedford Avenue and N 7th Street. Come see this classic Greenpoint townhouse, and make it the backdrop for your next chapter in Brooklyn. Delivered vacant.
