561 Powell Street is a well-maintained single-family home in Brownsville, Brooklyn, originally built in 1987 on an 18 x 100 ft lot. With approximately 1,148 square feet of interior space, the home offers three bedrooms, one full bath, and a convenient half bath on the main level, combining classic charm with thoughtful upgrades throughout.
The spacious first floor features a bright living room, a formal dining area, a beautifully updated kitchen with granite countertops, and a powder room. The kitchen, roof, windows, and upstairs bathroom were completely redone between 2010 and 2012. Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms and the renovated full bathroom, and warm bamboo flooring runs throughout the home. The finished basement offers high ceilings and versatile space for recreation, laundry and boiler area, and storage.
Forced-air heating and central cooling were added around 2010-2012 using the existing ductwork; the hot water heater was replaced in 2014, and the electrical system was fully updated and grounded in 2020-2021. Outside, a fully paved backyard completed in 2018 offers low-maintenance entertaining, and private parking adds everyday convenience. Annual taxes were approximately $4,198.20. Listed at $629,000, the home sold for $625,000 in August 2025 — marketed and closed by Agatha Lubas.
