OPEN HOUSE : Wednesday, October 14th - 5:00pm - 7:00pm . Perfectly situated on the coveted eastern side of Mackenzie Street in Manhattan Beach, Brooklyn, this two-unit residence captures the essence of refined coastal living in one of Brooklyn’s most exclusive waterfront enclaves. Just moments from both the public shoreline and a private beach, and positioned only minutes from Sheepshead Bay Marina, the location delivers a rare combination of privacy, accessibility, and waterfront proximity. Set on an oversized lot—a true rarity for the area—the property immediately distinguishes itself with a fully paved three-car driveway, offering the kind of parking capacity that is increasingly hard to secure in this neighborhood. The expansive backyard extends the space outdoors, featuring a large semi-paved layout ideal for entertaining, dining, or future customization, while a private second-floor terrace adds an elevated outdoor retreat with added separation and flexibility. Inside, radiant-heated floors pair seamlessly with hardwood flooring throughout, creating a warm yet refined foundation across both residences. A split-level ductless air conditioning system with individual temperature controls in every room ensures efficient, customizable year-round climate control—an upgrade that enhances both comfort and energy efficiency. All bathrooms are fully tiled, delivering a clean, durable finish that complements the home’s overall sense of quality and cohesion. The ground-floor unit offers a well-proportioned two-bedroom layout with one full and one-half bath, designed for seamless, single-level living. The second-floor residence expands into a three-bedroom configuration, anchored by a full bathroom with a jacuzzi soaking tub and separate shower, along with an additional half bath—bringing both scale and comfort to everyday living. Both units are currently occupied by a family.
