1501 Lincoln Pl, Brooklyn, NY 11213

Available at last, an affordable two-family brick row home in a vibrant urban Crown Heights neighborhood! Here is a flexible property with loads of potential, conveniently located near shopping, subways, and Lincoln Terrace Park which lends an immediate respite of landscaped green space. Nestled on a quiet one-way tree-lined residential block in a row of like kind period architecture, situated on an oversize 20' x 120' lot, a handsome barrel front two-family measuring 20' X 55' plus rear extension on first floor and basement. Yes, there is a finished basement offering additional living space! First check out the curb appeal, south facing front rose garden, 4 easy steps up to front door, gracious foyer leading ahead to first floor apartment, and a sky-lit stairwell up to second floor apartment. Step into a front parlor with triple bay window, and French doors to a pair of quiet interior bedrooms with skylight and air shaft. An interior hallway runs alongside these rooms so you need never walk thru one room to access the next. Also off the hallway is a vintage ceramic tile bath with tub, shower, vanity and bidet. Next to the bath is a huge walk in closet. Further back is a formal dining room with north facing window onto the rear garden, beam ceiling and original carved fireplace mantel, a room that works as a third bedroom if you prefer. Next is the charming vintage kitchen, open to an expansive dining area in the rear extension, easily large enough for a six seat table, with windows on two exposures, north and west, and a door to the aforementioned rear garden. An interior stair down to a finished basement, additional living space in a spacious 'rec' room with front bay windows, a handy kitchenette, and a shower stall bath. In the rear is a laundry room with sink, a separate mechanical room, and additional dedicated storage space under the extension. There are two means of egress from this level, a front door and a back door, each with sturdy cement steps. The spacious rear yard includes a large handy shed currently used for parking, as an alley runs behind the property connecting to the street. The upper apartment follows a similar layout with the addition of a front 'hall' room over the stairwell, and in the rear right off the kitchen is the roof of the extension, which can be utilized as a step out terrace or deck. Either apartment could readily provide rental income if an owner chooses to occupy just one of the units.
