Find your own slice of paradise with 69 Chester Ave. This charming 2 family home offers the perfect blend of opportunity and comfort. You can live and earn income, and have a home you can grow into.

It's a smart investment, and it could also easily be turned back into a single family home, if desired. Welcome home!
Step inside and take a journey back in time with exquisite details like a stunning pier mirror and beautiful parquet floors. The duplex boasts an open-concept layout, where a chef’s kitchen—complete with large windows and beautiful finishes—flows seamlessly into the living and dining area. From here, step directly into your backyard oasis. Two generously-sized bedrooms with ample closet space bookend the living areas, while a charming black-and-white tiled bathroom adds a touch of classic charm. The fully finished lower level features ceramic tiling, a spacious rec room, a separate windowed sleeping area, another full bathroom, and a convenient laundry setup.
Upstairs, the one-bedroom apartment is a light-filled retreat. With an abundance of windows, transoms, and gorgeous stained glass skylights, the space feels airy and bright. The open living and kitchen areas are thoughtfully designed, with slate tile floors, maple cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (yes, there’s a dishwasher!), and access to a large private deck—perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The bedroom, with three windows and a large closet, is both spacious and serene. Picture frame moldings adorn the hallways and the large bedroom. A skylit bathroom with subway tiles and classic black-and-white floors completes this inviting space.
Just two blocks from the F/G trains and B67/B69 buses, with Foodtown on the corner and Church Ave’s bustling retail corridor nearby, everything you need is practically at your doorstep. Prospect Park, local playgrounds, and the charming eateries along Ft. Hamilton Parkway are all within walking distance. The historic Greenwood Cemetery entrance is just three blocks away.
With an excellent rent roll and leases ending on 8/31 and 10/31, this property is a savvy investment for now and the future. Showings begin at the open house on Sunday, 5/17, from 1:30–3:00. Don’t miss out—this gem won’t be available for long!
