TWO TAX LOT R4 DEVELOPMENT SITE | 40×100 | BUILD 2 HOMES | EAST FLATBUSH
Marketing description
Two adjacent residential tax lots (Lot 70 & Lot 71) totaling approximately 4,000 square feet (40’ x 100’) located in the East Flatbush section of Brooklyn. The property offers 40 feet of combined frontage on a quiet residential block and is zoned R4, allowing for low-density residential development.
The site presents a strong opportunity for developers and builders to capitalize on a two-lot configuration, with the potential to construct two separate 1–2 family homes (subject to zoning and approvals).
