Description

Welcome to 587A Lexington Ave, a 20'-wide beautiful two-family townhouse in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, rich with charm, character, and exceptional flexibility. Currently configured and enjoyed as a spacious one-family home, this property can be easily converted back to a true two-family residence, making it an excellent opportunity for end-users, investors, or buyers seeking multi-generational living.

Set on a 20' x 100' lot with a 20' x 55' building, the home offers approximately 2,200 square feet plus an unfinished basement. The property also features approximately 1,800 square feet of unused buildable area, with a maximum buildable area of 4,000 square feet, offering exciting future expansion potential.

In its current one-family layout, the second floor features 5 bedrooms, 1 home office, and 1 full bathroom. The first floor includes a living room, dining room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, and 1 full bathroom. For buyers looking to restore the property to a two-family configuration for rental income, multi-generational living, or long-term investment upside, an alternative layout can accommodate a 3-bedroom, 1-bath unit over a 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit, each with its own living room, dining room, and kitchen.

The home also offers excellent outdoor and bonus space, including a large rear deck overlooking an expansive private backyard, perfect for entertaining, gardening, relaxing, or outdoor dining. The unfinished basement, with both front and rear access, presents additional possibilities: finish it for more usable living space or combine it with the first floor to create a desirable duplex-style unit.

Additional highlights include a new roof replaced in 2022, fully paid-off solar panels that help reduce energy costs, and a valuable tax abatement that helps keep property taxes low. The home is also equipped with a split AC system providing both heating and cooling for year-round comfort.

Conveniently located around supermarkets, shopping, dining, and subway transportation, this is a rare opportunity to own a versatile Brooklyn property with charm, outdoor space, modern upgrades, and future upside in one of Bedford-Stuyvesant's most vibrant neighborhoods.
