    What's special

    Despite all the gloomy economic news, you're still in the running to become a homeowner in 2022. And 541 East 42nd St makes that possible at a price typically offered only to investors. This 1940 brick townhouse with driveway and garage is the perfect starter home in the Farragut section of East Flatbush, Brooklyn for the person open to several home improvement projects. Ascend the exterior brick stairs, past the covered porch overlooking the yard and driveway, and pass through its vestibule into a spacious living room, just off the dining area. High concave wood coffered ceilings instantly grab your attention when you enter and introduce you to the stunning mid century modern architecture of the era. Discover the large open kitchen just off the dining area and continue through where you encounter an immense first floor bathroom and 2 spacious bedrooms. Descend stairs facing the bathroom will transport you to the english basement where a 2nd Full Bathroom, Rec Area, Laundry Area and Bedroom exist. You'll have complete access to the Backyard and Garage from the basement level plus additional storage. What are the home improvement projects awaiting you? Both bathrooms need a facelift and the Kitchen needs to be updated with new cabinets, countertops and appliances. Which is why Investors would line up at the front door to buy this home. These home improvements are nominal in cost and could be easily financed in your mortgage. Where else could you own a home for less than the price of a 2 Bedroom Condo in Brooklyn? This is your chance to get out of that expensive apartment you're renting.
