Description

Located on a beautiful, tree-lined block in prime East Flatbush, 160 East 31st Street is a well-kept two-family brick home offering scale, flexibility, and long-term upside in one of Brooklyn’s most established residential neighborhoods. With classic curb appeal and solid construction, this property presents an excellent opportunity to personalize and enhance a home that is already in great overall shape.

Spanning approximately 2,400 square feet, the house features five bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms across two units. The upper duplex is thoughtfully laid out with four bedrooms and one-and-a-half bathrooms and enjoys direct access to a lovely backyard, ideal for entertaining, gardening, or everyday outdoor living. The space benefits from good natural light, generous room sizes, and a layout that lends itself well to cosmetic upgrades and modern touches.

The lower unit is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment, perfect for rental income, extended family use, or a private workspace. Whether used as an income-producing asset or a flexible live-with setup, the configuration offers versatility that appeals to both end users and investors.

The home is ideally positioned near the 2 and 5 subway lines at Newkirk Avenue–Little Haiti and the B and Q lines at Church Avenue, providing convenient access throughout Brooklyn and into Manhattan. Nearby bus routes include the B8, B44, and B35. Everyday conveniences are close by, with supermarkets such as Key Food, Associated Supermarkets, and ShopRite, along with a wide selection of neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, and local services.

The area is served by well-regarded schools including P.S. 139 Alexine A. Fenty School, P.S. 193 Gil Hodges, and Midwood High School, as well as several private and charter options nearby.

With strong bones, outdoor space, and a location on a quiet, attractive block, 160 East 31st Street offers a rare chance to create a customized home or high-performing investment in the heart of East Flatbush.
