Property Description for 80 Jewel Street

A Jewel Street Gem.

Formerly a boarding house, this two family townhouse is teeming with possibilities. Is the idea of re-making a gut reno candidate to your exact specifications an exciting proposition? Then this handy-man’s dream home is your blank canvas!

Great for owner occupation + rental unit with room to grow – max FAR of 2.0 lets you build up or out. As-built FAR of 0.96 leaves significant upside for the buyer looking to add value to their investment and double their square footage.

Brick with good bones. Both units are full floor apartments, ensuring morning and afternoon light. Neighboring non-residential Moultrie street means added privacy and quiet is yours to enjoy in your huge tree-shaded backyard. Tin ceiling kitchens hearken back to an era of bygone Greenpoint.

Walking distance to schools, shopping, supermarkets, parks, Grumpy’s café and Peter Pan’s Donut shop. G train and B24, 43, and 48 bus lines get you around Brooklyn and beyond. Bedford L is 20 minute stroll through McCarren Park.

Annual taxes of $ 2,517 keep your total cost of ownership low.

We welcome you to bring your contractor and your imagination.

Don’t snooze on this one – this kind of opportunity rarely makes it to the open market.

Greenpoint | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Go north, not west. Greenpoint’s placement at the furthermost tip of Brooklyn makes it peak “North Brooklyn” territory. Bordered by the East River, its geographical location has long made Greenpoint integral to maritime activity, present day ferry service to Manhattan included. With Williamsburg to the south and Long Island City to the north, Greenpoint’s “hip factor” often experiences crossover traffic from these areas. 

Particularly bustling on the weekend, the edge of McCarren Park at Bedford Avenue and Lorimer Street filters out into prime Greenpoint, where brunch has become a hallowed tradition for newer and longtime residents alike. Bars and restaurants such as Spritzenhaus and Five Leaves also provide close proximity to a post-dining jaunt in the park. 

As the neighborhood continues to grow and develop, the old world feel of a tradition of Polish immigrants has commingled with the arrival of enterprising millennials that have become a part of the go-getting spirit of the neighborhood. Filled with small coffee shops, vintage boutiques and award-winning restaurants (as well as tailored bars like TØRST offering up specialty beers on tap), Greenpoint truly is the jewel of North Brooklyn.
