FIRST SHOWING WILL BE VIA OPEN HOUSE TUESDAY. This beautiful, impeccably maintained historic townhouse built during the late 19th century is in pristine condition and awash in charm and character! Legal three-family currently configured and being used as a single-family home with five bedrooms and three full baths, it could easily be returned to three separate floor-through residences. This approximately 2800-SF home is roughly 18 feet wide, sits on an 1800-SF lot, and has a lovely 800+ SF garden and 138-SF front-facing patio. Blessed with a handsome red-brick facade, spacious rooms with high ceilings, and a decorative fireplace with original mantel, this townhouse is in move-in ready condition but could also be completely redone, as it is not a landmarked building. The ground/garden level has a large living/dining room and massive windowed eat-in-kitchen, along with a small full bathroom. The parlor floor boasts extra-high ceilings and huge windows with original wooden frames and details, in addition to two bedrooms and a bathroom complete with a claw-foot tub. The top floor has three bedrooms, a bath, and a ton of closets. Other hallmarks of this special property include beamed ceilings, 17 oversize windows, an abundance of Victorian-era details and clever built ins, 7 closets - several of which are walk-in, a laundry room with a dryer that vents outside, and a large unfinished basement with 6.5-ft ceilings. Conveniently located close to the LIRR and the A/C and J trains, with a quick and easy commute to Manhattan, as well as to LaGuardia and JFK Airports. Situated on a beautiful brownstone block in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant, 425 Halsey Street is surrounded by some of the neighborhood's most beloved cafés, restaurants, and bars. Just moments away you'll find local favorites such as Daphne's Brooklyn, Saraghina, Peaches HotHouse, L'Antagoniste, and the lively music venue Bar LunÁtico. This historic neighborhood, at the crossroads of Bed-Stuy and Stuyvesant Heights, also offers a variety of charming coffee shops, wine bars, and bakeries, creating a vibrant and welcoming community atmosphere right outside your door.More detailed information and tours available for serious purchasers upon request. Property will be delivered vacant at closing.
