Property Description for 255 Eldert Street

Welcome to 255 Eldert Street, an incredible income generating two family townhouse in one of Brooklyn's most dynamic and desired neighborhoods. This townhome has undergone a full renovation with remarkable detail in every aspect. The roof and all mechanicals including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, boiler were replaced and updated in 2017. In 2018 the owners purchased solar panels, and in 2020 they upgraded the basement with French drains. A top to bottom renovation with intelligent owner upgrades of the highest quality puts this home in a class of its own. Your three bedroom two and half bathroom owner’s duplex spans the entire second and third floor, plus a finished ceramic tile basement, and private landscaped organic soil backyard. Beautiful mahogany inlaid floors & 10 foot ceilings stretch throughout, and are accompanied by classic wainscot walls, recessed tray ceiling, and led lighting. Custom designed and fabricated window treatments line the entirety of your home. Live comfortably and enjoy central heating and cooling. A kitchen with a view, not just of your dining room but out through floor to ceiling windows and onto your private Ipe hardwood planked deck; this is an incredible amount of space to entertain guests. The waterfall marble island creates another place to gather, prepare food, dine in, or just have your morning coffee. Your kitchen also features chef-grade Bertazzoni range with vented hood, Samsung fridge with filtered water and ice maker, dishwasher, and wine cooler. Have dinner with a sunset in your dining room, on your deck or out in the garden. On the top floor you'll find three spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms and laundry closet. Your primary bedroom features an en-suite marble bathroom with double vanity, glass rainfall shower, and deep soaking tub. The other two secondary bedrooms face North-West over the garden and feature plenty of closet space. One bedroom is currently used as a home office with Verizon Fios, while the other is a second bedroom/guest room. The laundry closet is complete with storage space and vented LG washer and dry. Bushwick is consistently ranked as one of the coolest neighborhoods in New York City. 255 Eldert is only a few blocks to the L train, J train, grocery stores, Irving Square Park and all the local drinks and dining spots like Father Knows Best, General Irving, Halsey Ale House, Money Cat, Barchaa, Fred's Wine Bar, and more. The rental unit has amazing, reliable, and quiet tenants in place until May 2023, paying market rate.

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).
