    2 LOTS AS 1 PROPERTY (5,000 sq. ft.). Stunning Park-View Home in Prestigious Dyker Heights – Rare Opportunity with Expansive Outdoor Oasis & Buildable Potential QUALIFIED BUYERS WITH PROOF OF FUNDS ONLY - We are NOT interested in listing with Real Estate Agents at this time. Discover timeless elegance and unparalleled lifestyle in this exceptional double-lot two-family residence (currently seamlessly used as a single-family home) at 849 73rd Street in Brooklyn's sought-after Dyker Heights. Built in 1925 with classic charm and modern versatility, this 1,820 sq ft gem sits on two separate lots conjoined into a continuous 50x100 (5,000 sq. ft.) property. It offers 6 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and sun-drenched living spaces perfect for families or savvy investors. Step inside to beautiful hardwood floors flowing throughout the main living areas, creating warm and inviting spaces. The spacious eat-in kitchen boasts a large pantry for effortless entertaining, while generous room layouts provide flexibility—configure as a grand one-family retreat or maintain as income-producing two-family units. A highlight is the second-floor balcony offering sweeping, direct views of scenic McKinley Park, where lush greenery, open fields, and recreational amenities create a tranquil backdrop year-round. Outside, the true value of this double-lot property comes to life: enjoy your large private park-like backyard—a serene, expansive retreat ideal for gardening, al fresco dining, or simply unwinding amid mature trees and open sky. This rare outdoor haven feels like your own personal extension of the nearby park, delivering privacy and natural beauty in the heart of the city. Parking is effortless with ample off-street space (including driveway and garage potential) for multiple vehicles—rare in Brooklyn and perfect for growing families or guests. Adding even greater value is the additional empty buildable neighboring lot, currently part of the same 5,000 sq. ft. property, providing exceptional development upside. Whether expanding your living space, adding a guest house, or pursuing new construction (subject to zoning), this extra parcel unlocks significant potential on this already substantial lot, with thousands of square feet available across the combined double lot. Nestled on a peaceful, tree-lined street, the home sits moments from McKinley Park's trails, fields, and playgrounds, top-rated schools, shopping on 13th Avenue, and convenient transit. Enjoy the best of Dyker Heights living: community charm, green space access, and easy commutes. Location is unbeatable: quiet, family-friendly block in a top school district near PS 176 and JHS 259, short distance to B4 and B70 buses to the N train on 8th Avenue, easy access to restaurants, shopping, and the expressway. This is more than a home, it's a lifestyle investment with room to grow. Don't miss this rare combination of park views, generous private outdoor space, ample parking, and two lots sold together as one property with buildable land in one of Brooklyn's most desirable neighborhoods. Schedule your private viewing today and envision the possibilities.
    What the owner loves about this home
    I love how peaceful this block of 73rd Street feels while still being so close to everything. McKinley Park right across the way, schools, restaurants, and easy transportation options. The house gets beautiful natural light throughout the day, and the extra-deep lot makes the backyard feel like a private garden escape in the middle of Brooklyn. Dyker Heights has a true neighborhood feel with tree-lined streets, long-time neighbors, and the famous holiday lights. This home has comfortably held multiple generations at once and has the flexibility to work as an owner-occupied two-family, an investment, or a creative live/work setup.
