Property Description
A substantial two-family Queen Anne Victorian in the heart of Ditmas Park, 342 Westminster Road offers approximately 3,400 square interior feet (including basement), generous outdoor space, private driveway plus a detached two-car garage. The 7+ bed, 2+ bath home requires some TLC, but offers extraordinary potential as an income producing property and / or primary residence. The existing configuration supports owner occupancy with rental income and possibly the addition of an Auxiliary Dwelling Unit (ADU). The home could also be converted back to a single-family home, depending on one's needs over time.
1st Floor: The home's foyer, grand staircase and stained-glass windows set the stage for a warm welcome home. Currently configured as a split-bedroom layout, the 1st floor comes with bedrooms thoughtfully positioned on opposite sides of the residence with a full-bath in between; excellent for privacy. A windowed kitchen (positioned at the back of the home) with a sliding door, leads onto a spacious covered rear patio with access to the backyard, driveway and garage. Imagine morning coffees, sunset cocktails and al fresco dining. A gracious front porch flanks the front of the home for enviable views of tree-lined Westminster Road.
2nd Floor: Currently used as a one bedroom with dedicated living and dining areas, the floor can easily be converted into a two-bedroom unit. Spacious windowed kitchen with gas appliances and tree-top views. Front bay windows for sundrenched living, a windowed bathroom and the dedicated dining area / office in the back. Tons of closets and storage throughout!
3rd Floor: Three rooms and several closets provide additional space for sleeping, working, hobbies and / or storage.
Lower Level: The semi-finished basement provides additional space for recreational use, laundry, storage, and possibly an ADU (pending approvals) with great income potential.
Outdoor Space & Parking: A full-sized front porch, covered rear patio and backyard offer space for outdoor dining, gardening and entertaining. A provide driveway with parking for at least two cars leads to a detached two-car garage that could possibly be converted to an ADU (pending approvals).
Situated in prime Ditmas Park, a neighborhood renowned for its historic Victorian homes and tree-lined streets, 342 Westminster Road benefits from a rich architectural heritage. Ditmas Park is part of Brooklyn's Flatbush area and has been recognized for its unique suburban feel within the urban landscape of New York City.
Enjoy a plethora of incredible independent restaurants, cafés, bars and conveniences nearby. A few local favorites: the Sunday morning Farmers Market, Flatbush Food Co-op, Kings Theatre, Café Madeline, Bad Therapy, Victorian Cafe, Brooklyn Artery, George's Diner, Sycamore and Highbury Pub, to name just a few.
