Exceptional opportunity in the heart of Bensonhurst! This solid brick home offers incredible potential for both end-users and investors looking to customize and add value. Previously configured as a 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence with a fully finished basement, the property features a spacious layout, private backyard, and a wide driveway accommodating 2 cars — a rare find in this neighborhood. The home has experienced a minor fire-related incident and is being sold as-is, presenting a unique opportunity for renovation and customization. With the right vision, this property can be restored into a beautiful residence or a high-return investment. Situated in an R5 zoning district, the property offers additional flexibility and potential for reconfiguration, including the possibility of conversion to a multi-family layout. Located on a quiet residential block, the property is surrounded by convenient amenities including shopping along 86th Street, local restaurants, schools, and public transportation, offering strong long-term value. Owner financing may be available for qualified buyers with 50% or more down payment. Don’t miss this opportunity to bring this home back to life and unlock its full potential.
