About 2257 Mcdonald Ave
Attention Builders, Developers and End-users! First time offered two-family fully detached building. Handy-man special. Centrally located near the F train, Ave U stop in Gravesend. House needs TLC and is essentially a tear-down. • Lot Size: 38.75 x 75 feet. • Buildable Area: Potential buildable 8,500 sq ft. • Zoning: R6A zoning with a commercial overlay of C1-4, allowing for mixed-use or warehouse development. Nonmortgage contingent deals only as the house is not habitable in its current state. Amazing potential for residential or commercial development in a prime neighborhood. Remember to conduct your own due diligence (architect, engineer) before proceeding with any purchase.
