Welcome to 235 Arlington Avenue—a rare, fully renovated Victorian two-family delivering the scale, character, and creative flexibility that is virtually impossible to find in standard North Brooklyn listings. Positioned on one of Cypress Hills' most distinctive corners, this massive property sits just a mile from Bushwick and a two-minute walk to the J train, offering the ultimate canvas for a buyer looking to maximize space and buying power. For about what a cramped, unrenovated property costs in central Bushwick, 235 Arlington serves up six massive bedrooms across two distinct residences, a deep private yard, a detached two-car garage with a separate creative studio above, and a striking Queen Anne turret. Configured as a legal two-family, the property is a premier house-hacking or investment opportunity. It pairs a high-yield owner's duplex above with a full-floor income-producing unit below, plus a finished basement, a rare Brooklyn garage, and a separately accessible studio over the garage—perfect for a private guest suite, a detached home office, or an independent art/music studio. The upper duplex is a light-filled four-bedroom, three-bath home featuring soaring ceilings, wide-plank white oak floors, and deep original moldings. The designer kitchen features rift-cut white oak cabinetry to the ceiling, a full-height marble slab backsplash, brushed brass fixtures, and a professional gas range. A jewel-box turret room wraps in a full curve of windows, opening directly to a floating, wrap-around balcony. Bedrooms are generously scaled with bay windows, deep closets, and zoned mini-splits, while the spa baths feature vertical stack tile, honed marble floors, floating oak vanities, and aged-brass tapware (including a primary suite with a glass-enclosed walk-in rain shower). The first floor lives as a full two-bedroom, two-bath residence with immense architectural soul. The space is anchored by a hand-carved wood-paneled dining room framed by a beamed ceiling and pocket entries, alongside two original fireplaces: a monumental Roman-brick hearth with a Greek-key mantel and an ornate cast-iron mantel with a beveled overmantel mirror. The chef's kitchen is a design statement, boasting rift-cut white oak cabinetry, a full Calacatta slab backsplash, a waterfall island with an integrated beverage fridge, and a professional gas range. Two full baths, in-unit laundry hookups, and direct access to private outdoor space at the rear round out the floor. Below, a finished basement adds flexible, high-ceilinged square footage perfect for a gym, media room, or extra workspace. Outside, the property transcends typical city living. The deep private yard is flanked by a detached two-car garage and the finished upper studio, creating an incredible compound footprint for entertaining, creating, or working from home. Set on a corner lot in Cypress Hills—a leafy, low-rise enclave of historic architecture on the Brooklyn–Queens border—the property balances neighborhood quiet with intense cultural connectivity. You are blocks from Highland Park and just a mile from Bushwick. The J train at Cleveland Street is a two-minute walk, putting you just 4 stops from the edge of Bushwick (Chauncey St) and 8 stops from the heart of the Bushwick/Williamsburg M-line transfer (Myrtle Ave). Broadway Junction, about a mile away, connects you to the L train straight into Bushwick's Aberdeen, Wilson, and Myrtle-Wyckoff stops, as well as the A/C lines. Drivers have seamless access to the Jackie Robinson Parkway, Belt Parkway, and JFK. Don't miss out on this exceptional opportunity to own a true Brooklyn compound.
