Duplex In Astoria

This completely rebuilt, legal two-family home is ideal for an end user looking for a stream of rental revenue or a savvy investor. In 2014, this house was completely reimagined and converted into a two-family dwelling and remains one of the only houses on this block that built up to a third floor.

The basement/walk-in level has been fully finished with ceramic tile and features a half-bathroom and space for a washer and dryer. High ceilings make this ideal for use as a recreation room or to be duplexed with the first floor. Access is granted through the front of the house, the back and also from the first floor unit.

The first floor apartment is a spacious two-bedroom, one-bathroom unit with approximately ten-foot ceilings. The kitchen and bathroom have been updated (2014). A balcony provides access to the yard. Additionally, there is a door leading to the basement, offering an opportunity to create a duplex unit. The second floor apartment features the same layout with approximately eight-foot ceilings, two bedrooms and one bathroom, with a fully updated kitchen and bathroom. This unit will be delivered vacant.

Offering 2,642 square feet of livable space, this home sits on a 17x101 lot with a sizable yard. The house has been converted to gas heat (2 meters; each unit has its own boiler and hot water tank) and has three electric meters. The electric infrastructure, roof, hot water tanks, etc. were fully replaced when the house was rebuilt and are in mint condition. This home also offers very low taxes for a two-family and is proximally located to the Q-18 bus stop and the 46th Street R/M subway stop. All of Astoria’s shopping and cultural offerings abound as you are close to Steinway Street, the Museum of the Moving Image, various shops/cafes on 34th Avenue and big-box retailers on Northern Boulevard.
