172 Schaefer Street has been remastered, renovated and retained her former glory as one of the area's premiere Townhomes. Rich in history, the Bushwick neighborhood has been a thriving community since the Dutch colonization of the Americas in the 16th century. Bushwick became an incorporated town in 1854, and its unique blend of old and new continues to provide residents a place to delve into and call home. Home of the first elevated train line, the L train "el" homes in the area have been influenced by Italianate, Neo Greco, Romanesque Revival and Queen Anne styles. Bushwick was the center of culture, and continues to bear this badge as the neighborhood eateries, galleries, and bistros attest. Artist communities, as well as Wall Street commuters call this area home. 172 Schaefer Street has been meticulously renovated with luxury finishes, large chef kitchen that open to a finished back yard/ with terrace and garden plots ready for your green thumb, or your landscape vision. Marble and hardwood flooring, exposed original brick, sky lights, large closets, laundry rooms and bathrooms of modern tile and glass keep the homes open and airy. The rental apartment on the top floor is a three bedroom apartment, with laundry and two bathrooms. Perfect for supplementing the mortgage payment, and providing tax benefits for the end user investor. The area has been friendly to investors and those who look for properties to hold and rent out as well. We welcome you to take a look at this beautiful home, view the online virtual tour, and come ready to make this your new home!
