Property Description for 30 Newel Street

30 Newel Street - Prime Greenpoint Single-Family with Development Potential

Introducing an increasingly rare opportunity on one of Greenpoint's most peaceful, tree-lined residential blocks: 30 Newel Street, a 4-bedroom townhouse set on an oversized 25' 100' lot . With approx 1,286 SF of existing above-grade interior space this home presents tremendous upside for developers, investors, or end-users seeking a property with development potential in a highly coveted location.

Behind the classic facade lies a generously scaled layout with a full-floor living and dining level, a large eat-in kitchen, and a windowed bathroom. The main level enjoys excellent natural light and an open footprint that invites reimagining. Upstairs, you'll find four well-proportioned bedrooms and a half bath.

The deep rear lot is one of the property's most valuable assets. A partially finished basement level provides additional storage and flexible utility space, adding further versatility for redevelopment or renovation.

This property benefits from a R6B zoning and provides immediate usability as well as future development potential, with an FAR of 2.0 and approximately 3,225 buildable square feet for expansion.

Perfectly positioned near McGolrick Park, McCarren Park, the G train, and Greenpoint's thriving dining and retail corridors, 30 Newel delivers both neighborhood charm and long-term value. Whether you're envisioning a modern residence, exploring expansion possibilities, or planning a strategic redevelopment, this property offers a rare canvas in one of Brooklyn's most sought-after enclaves.

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.
