Presenting an excellent opportunity to own a well-maintained 3-family property in the heart of Bushwick generating $11,710 per month in total rental income, or $140,520 in annual gross rent. The first-floor unit features 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, direct backyard access, split-zone heating and air conditioning, and baseboard heat, while the second- and third-floor units each offer 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet.

Situated on a 20' x 100' lot with R6 zoning, the property contains approximately 3,000 square feet with an actual FAR of 1.50, compared with a maximum residential FAR of 2.43, indicating approximately 4,860 square feet of maximum residential floor area and an estimated 1,860 additional buildable square feet, subject to zoning, DOB approval, and independent verification.
