Property Description for 704 Humboldt Street
704 Humboldt Street - A Classic Greenpoint Townhouse with Timeless Appeal
Welcome to 704 Humboldt Street, a beautifully maintained two-unit brick townhouse nestled on a quiet, tree-lined block in Greenpoint, just a stone's throw from the lush and beloved Msgr. McGolrick Park. This charming residence blends historic character with thoughtful updates and offers flexibility for both comfortable owner occupancy and rental income.
Owner's Duplex - A Private Urban Oasis
The spacious owner's duplex spans the garden and parlor levels and can be accessed through a gracious parlor-floor entrance or a private entry beneath the stoop. The garden level features an inviting open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. Just off the kichen, there is a door leading out to a truly enchanting rear garden, complete with mature plantings, a tranquil bubbling pond, and ample space for lounging or al fresco dining-a rare retreat in the city. This level also includes a full bathroom and a convenient pantry off the kitchen, along with a discreetly located mechanical and storage room at the rear of the home. Upstairs, the parlor level is bathed in natural light and offers a bright, versatile front room that currently serves as an inspiring art studio or could function as a cozy sitting room. The primary bedroom is serene and spacious, while a lofted second bedroom offers additional flexibility. A second full bathroom completes this level, enhancing the convenience and functionality of the home.
Top-Floor Rental - Turnkey Income Opportunity
The top floor houses a well-appointed one-bedroom rental unit that is consistently income-producing. With a thoughtful layout, it appeals to long-term tenants or can be used as an in-law suite or guest quarters, offering additional lifestyle or investment flexibility.
Whether you're looking to live in a warm, character-rich home while earning supplemental rental income, or seeking a multi-generational living setup, 704 Humboldt Street offers the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and opportunity-all just minutes from Greenpoint's favorite cafes, shops, and green spaces.

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.
