A move-in-ready single-family with modern updates and private parking at 561 Powell Street, Brownsville — sold by Agatha

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.

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.
