    Welcome to 700 Dekalb Avenue, a beautifully maintained Brooklyn townhouse located in the heart of the vibrant and historic Bedford–Stuyvesant neighborhood. Built in 1901, this classic brick residence blends timeless Brooklyn character with generous living space, offering an exceptional opportunity for both homeowners and investors. Spanning approximately 3,361 square feet across three stories plus a finished basement, the property is thoughtfully configured as two expansive duplex residences. In total, the home offers four bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms, providing spacious layouts ideal for modern living, multi-generational use, or rental income potential. The finished basement adds valuable flexible space that can serve as a recreation area, home office, gym, or additional living quarters. Large living areas, multiple levels, and the classic architectural charm typical of Brooklyn townhouses create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. Adding to the home’s appeal are multiple outdoor living spaces, including a private backyard perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or gardening, as well as a roof deck offering open sky views—an ideal setting for outdoor dining, lounging, and enjoying warm Brooklyn evenings. Positioned on a 19-foot-wide lot in one of Brooklyn’s most desirable brownstone neighborhoods, the property also presents compelling long-term value. Zoned R7A with a C2-4 overlay, the home benefits from additional development potential with approximately 1,459 square feet of unused buildable area, offering future possibilities for expansion. Perfectly located near the G train at Nostrand Avenue, residents enjoy convenient access throughout Brooklyn and into Manhattan. The surrounding neighborhood is beloved for its tree-lined streets, historic brownstones, thriving restaurant scene, and strong sense of community. The property is currently occupied and can be delivered vacant, offering flexibility for buyers looking to occupy the home, create a multi-generational living arrangement, or maximize investment potential. 700 Dekalb Avenue represents a rare opportunity to own a classic Brooklyn townhouse with scale, outdoor living space, flexibility, and long-term potential in one of Brooklyn’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
