Williamsburg Four-Unit Investment Opportunity 55 South 5th Street
A rare investor's dream just one block from the East River waterfront and Domino Park, this legal four-unit brick townhouse in the heart of Williamsburg offers immediate cash flow today and a clear path to full vacant possession tomorrow. Built in 1910 and thoughtfully renovated, the 20' x 40' building sits on a 20' x 73.67' lot, blending pre-war character with modern upgrades throughout.
The building delivers built-in flexibility for any investment strategy. One unit, a beautifully renovated one-bedroom plus den with private backyard access, is currently vacant. The remaining three spacious one-bedroom plus den units are tenant occupied, generating steady rental income. All existing leases roll off by March 2027, giving a buyer the rare ability to hold for income now and reposition, renovate, or redevelop the entire building free and clear on a known, near-term timeline.
