449 57th Street

First time to market since the 1960s, this well-maintained, fully attached brick two-family offers scale, flexibility, and preserved character on a solid Sunset Park block. Configured as a 2-bedroom rental over a 4-bedroom owner’s duplex, the layout works equally well for end-users and investors. The owner’s duplex spans two levels and includes direct access to the expansive semi-finished basement, adding meaningful additional space for storage, workspace, or future use. The top-floor unit provides strong potential for rental income. Original details remain intact throughout, including hardwood floors, ornate banisters, tin ceilings, fireplaces, and pocket doors—elements that bring depth and authenticity without sacrificing functionality. High ceilings further enhance the sense of volume across the home. A large backyard offers valuable outdoor space, rounding out the property’s practical appeal. Mechanically maintained with an updated a brand new hot water heater. Three bathrooms support the multi-family configuration. A straightforward building with solid bones, preserved detail, and clear upside—move in as-is, update over time, or hold as a long-term investment.
