Property Description for 212 Van Buren Street

Make Your Forever Home

When you've seen it all and nothing quite feels like the home you've dreamed of, it is time to make the home you desire. All you need is a structurally sound space and a vision--212 Van Buren is that space. This 3-Family, 5-Bed, 5-Bath, 3420 square foot home could be lived in as is with all its chic quirks, but this is also where you have more than enough space to make the home of your dreams. To be clear this is not a fixer-upper, but it's truly only up from here because this beautiful home will inspire you to create your forever home.

Its master unit, currently designed as a 1-Bed triplex, is the perfect canvas for you to start designing what you desire. Exposed brick, beautiful hardwood floors, strategic lighting, and natural wood shutters and moldings create an ambiance of luxury that will transport you to your happy place. Every level of this unit utilizes an open floor concept that encourages serenity, lounging, and entertaining. The garden level is where you?ll find spacious living and dining spaces that lead to a chic kitchen with tons of storage that looks out onto a beautifully landscaped garden. The garden has a furnished shed with electricity, which is perfect for a gym, office, or studio space. The master bedroom is a sprawling, floor-through with an open concept 4-piece bathroom, that includes a jacuzzi and peek-a-boo shower. If you need more than one palatial bedroom, a second and third bedroom could easily be carved out, or you could expand the unit into the third-floor simplex. The finished basement is the icing on the cake?it is the perfect entertainment space and is also a bonus space for guests to stay over. Every level of this triplex has a full bathroom that is designed to feel like a spa. There is more than enough to love here and plenty of space to create the home you'll adore for a lifetime.

212 Van Buren?s simplexes are 2-Bed, 1-Bath homes that are perfect if you want to expand your living space or generate rental income. Each unit is spacious and filled with light, so with minimal modern upgrades you will be able to command competitive rents. Every unit of this home delivers again and again.

This home resides in Bedford Stuyvesant near the luscious greenery of Herbert Von King Park?which features running trails, a baseball field, picnic area, walking paths, outdoor amphitheater, and indoor dance studio. This location also allows you to experience the best of two neighborhoods, Bedford Stuyvesant and Bushwick. Some of Brooklyn's most sought-after restaurants, eclectic shops, and most beautiful blocks are within a 10-minute radius. You?re also 15 minutes from Downtown Brooklyn, Williamsburg, and Crown Heights. Every amenity and desirable landmark you can think of is nearby so you will love living here. If you?ve been looking for a unique place to live, you will discover it here. Find Your Sweet Spot.

Quick Profile

Known for its historic brownstones and tight-knit enclave, Bed-Stuy has increasingly left behind its early reputation for being a “bedroom community” and transcended into a highly desirable neighborhood. 

Distinct for its aesthetic, it is populated with ornate buildings characterized by cornices, friezes, finials, fluting and other marks of classic architecture. Built up during the period from 1870 to 1900, its historic district runs to the north of Jefferson Avenue, to the east of Malcolm X Boulevard and to the west of Tompkins Avenue. 

At one point known as “Brooklyn’s Little Harlem,” the shape of the area has shifted toward attracting a wider demographic of people thanks to the influx of bars, restaurants, antique furniture stores and vintage boutiques. More police enforcement paired with the decline of the crack epidemic at the beginning of the 2000s also opened the door for increased development, as well as the occupation of formerly abandoned buildings and spaces.
