This charming two-family townhouse in Fort Greene offers a rare combination of space, flexibility, and a large private backyard complete with a dog wash station. The property consists of:
* Upper Duplex: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms
* Garden Unit: 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom
Total: 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms
The standout feature is the enormous private backyard, accessible via a convenient walkway that runs directly from the front of the house at the street all the way to the backyard. This rare front-to-back access makes the outdoor space exceptionally usable and private. The backyard features a spacious patio with built-in seating, lush landscaping, and colorful hanging flowers — perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The garden unit enjoys direct access to this incredible outdoor space.
Adding even more outdoor living are two private balconies, ideal for morning coffee or evening views.
Both units are move-in ready. The interiors feature light hardwood floors, fresh white walls, and abundant natural light throughout. Large windows and thoughtful layouts create a comfortable, airy feel. The blank-canvas condition means you can personalize quickly — whether you plan to live in one unit and rent the other, or use the entire property as an investment.
