Property Description for 225 Cornelia Street
Welcome home to 225 Cornelia Street, a turnkey, sprawling, bright and airy 18’ wide, 45’ long 2-family townhouse in prime Bushwick. Behind the contemporary facade, 225 Cornelia is configured as a 3 Bed / 2.5 Bath owners’ duplex with a large, private garden and a 2 BD / 1 BA apartment, as well as a finished basement. Blending tranquility and class, this three-bedroom owner’s duplex over two-bedroom rental is the perfect escape from hectic city life
Upon entering the home, you’ll be greeted into a true open-concept living space, which spans the sun-drenched main floor of this townhouse. Finished with beautiful hardwood flooring and soaring ceiling heights, this layout will lend itself to a multitude of options for design.
Expansive living and dining areas, anchored by a large chef’s kitchen with additional counter seating and a stylish half bath. Complete with stainless steel appliances (LG Fridge, Samsung Dishwasher and range) and exceptional counter space, this large kitchen is an entertainer’s dream. Light streams in through the first story front windows (exposed east) and from the back windows (exposed west) which overlook the large deck and private yard, covered in bluestone pavers, turf, rose bushes, hydrangeas and mature cherry blossom trees
Upstairs, the substantial primary bedroom has three windows overlooking the garden, a sophisticated – newly renovated – ensuite bathroom and generous walk-in-closet. Two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom and all closets are outfitted with California Closet interiors. The upstairs hall is home to the conveniently placed LG Washer Dryer, making laundry day a breeze.
The garden level unit has two bedrooms and a spacious living/dining room that can generate approximately $2500 in rental income to help offset mortgage costs. There is also a finished basement allowing for additional storage space, a home gym or kids playroom.
Nearby transportation includes the J, Z and M lines, with Central Ave and Kosciusko Street stations within a quarter mile and the L train is not much further at Dekalb. If your private backyard was not enough, this home is surrounded by public green spaces, including beautiful Irving Square Park just two blocks north, and the renowned Maria Hernandez Park and playground. In Bushwick there is something for everyone and neighborhood favorites include: Faro, Seawolf, Iciran, The Turkish Inn, General Irving Coffee Shop, Roberta’s, Santa Panza, Sunrise/Sunset café and many more.

Bushwick | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
As one of the most diverse neighborhoods in New York, Bushwick offers a perfect snapshot of just how multicultural the city is. Long-established as an amalgam of cultures and ethnicities, a wave of varying types of immigrants trickled in from the seventeenth to twentieth centuries, with Bushwick largely becoming a home to Hispanics of Puerto Rican and Dominican backgrounds by the latter part of the twentieth century.
With the Bushwick Initiative of the mid-00s that aided in revitalization, it became an attractive area to young professionals and artists. And even now, Bushwick has sustained affordable rent prices where other North Brooklyn counterparts, like Williamsburg and Greenpoint, have become more expensive. Priding itself on the weird and the wacky, numerous art collectives thrive in this part of Brooklyn, once famously named the seventh coolest neighborhood in the world by Vogue.
Though it has drawn in many tourists in recent years (there’s even a graffiti tour you can take from the Bushwick Collective), the neighborhood remains very much community-oriented, and has not been subject to quite the same sort of corporate infiltration phenomenon of its nearby Williamsburg environs.
But yes, of course, Bushwick has come a very long way from its 80s and 90s reputation as being “The Well,” a nickname given to it for its free-flowing and widely available amount of drugs (quantity over quality being the cliche applied here).
