    A charming two-family townhouse nestled in the trendy neighborhood of Cobble Hill, 12 Butler Street is a prime investment and home ownership opportunity. With a lush backyard and a flexible layout, the home can easily be converted for single-family usage. Features include gorgeous wide plank hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, classic sash windows, decorative fireplaces, a lovely redbrick fac¸ade with an arched doorway and traditional cast iron detailing, a luminous owner's triplex, and an income-producing rental unit that can be delivered vacant or with a tenant in place.

The dining area has an elegant decorative fireplace with marble surround, and the kitchen has high-end stainless steel appliances and is ideal for a mobile island. The upper and lower levels of the triplex each have a pair of spacious bedrooms with private closet space and easy access to pristine full bathrooms. A laundry closet and an elegant spiral staircase with convenient wall niches complete the unit. The garden level rental studio boasts a large bathroom, a washer/dryer, a galley-style kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and a huge living, dining, and sleeping area that has a decorative fireplace and leads out into a private patio and garden. 12 Butler Street sits on a picturesque tree-lined lane in Cobble Hill.

It is close to Boerum and Carroll Parks, and is around the corner from the F and G subway lines.
