Description

Offered for the first time in over half a century, 37 Chester Avenue is a solid two-family brick residence that blends scale, versatility, and long-term pride of ownership. Built in 1930 and thoughtfully maintained by the same family for over 50 years, this is a rare opportunity to step into a home with both history and future upside. Spanning approximately 2,800 livable square feet, the property is configured across two expansive residential floors. Each unit features three full bedrooms, a spacious living room, formal dining room, and an eat-in kitchen, providing comfortable, well-proportioned layouts ideal for end-users and/or income-producing potential. Original charm shines through with beautiful wood flooring, generous closet space, and oversized windows that fill the home with natural light throughout the day. The home is further enhanced by a full finished, windowed basement complete with its own kitchen, half bathroom, and separate front entrance, offering flexibility for extended living, recreation, or potential additional use (buyer to verify). Additional highlights include a private attached garage, a true Brooklyn luxury that adds both convenience and value. Perfectly positioned on the Kensington / Windsor Terrace border, you’re moments from the iconic Green-Wood Cemetery and just a short distance to Prospect Park. The neighborhood offers a vibrant mix of local cafes, restaurants, and everyday conveniences, with easy access to transportation including the F and G trains, as well as multiple bus lines (B35, B16, B67, B69). Well cared for and deeply loved, 37 Chester Avenue presents a compelling opportunity for the next owner to live, invest, and create something truly special.
