181 Gates Ave

The perfect blend of cool and practical, this 20' wide, three story brick townhouse is a generous three bedroom, three bath residence with a large eat-in kitchen and a large landscaped private backyard. Featuring high ceilings, an elegant original staircase, three decorative marble fireplaces, original parquet flooring, and huge windows which bring in all day sun, you couldn't ask for a more perfect place to call home. The large, garden-level eat-in kitchen features generous cabinetry and a breakfast bar.

181 Gates is zoned as a 2 family but currently used as a single unit, there are a lot of options for building up or out (or both!) and there's plenty of FAR to do it! If you need rental income, converting the top or garden floor into a rental is a piece of cake. Rest assured, this house has been mechanically well-maintained and has recent plumbing and electrical systems.

181 Gates is well-located on a quiet tree-lined Clinton Hill street, just a few houses beyond the Clinton Hill Historic District (but without Landmark building restrictions), you are close to the C & G trains at Clinton/Washington, the C or S at Franklin Ave, and also able to use the Atlantic Center transportation hub. You are at the crossroads of several wonderful Brooklyn neighborhoods including Fort Greene, Bedford Stuyvesant, Prospect Heights, and Crown Heights. Parks, Schools, Dining, Shopping, BAM, fancy Coffee, and healthy groceries are all within easy reach.
