Property Description

Welcome to 1068 Walton Avenue, a meticulously restored 1899 brick townhouse offering 3,150 square feet of light-filled living space on a 2,000-square-foot lot, perfectly positioned one block from the historic Grand Concourse. This rare three-story residence seamlessly blends 19th-century architectural character with turnkey contemporary design, featuring refinished hardwood floors, high ceilings, generous windows, and a curated neutral palette throughout. A striking red entrance framed by black iron railings and stone steps welcomes you into a home where every finish has been thoughtfully considered.Configured as a legal three-unit property featuring a three-bedroom, one-bath unit over a three-bedroom, one-bath unit over a two-bedroom, one-bath unit, plus a full basement for additional storage, utility, or flex space, the layout unlocks exceptional possibilities - owner-occupy and offset your mortgage with rental income, accommodate multi-generational living with full privacy between floors, create a live/work setup, or hold as a pure three-unit investment in a high-demand South Bronx submarket. The bright kitchen features white cabinetry, a full stainless steel appliance package including gas range, dishwasher, and refrigerator, and a generous wood island with seating - built for both everyday living and entertaining. Bathrooms throughout carry a clean, timeless design language with white subway tile and modern fixtures.The standout feature is the private landscaped garden - a true rarity in New York City. Mature trees, natural stone pathways, paved entertaining areas, and decorative garden walls create a tranquil outdoor sanctuary perfect for dining al fresco, gardening, or simply unwinding. Located one block from the Grand Concourse Historic District - recently revitalized through a $450 million city-led streetscape reconstruction - residents enjoy walking access to the Bronx Museum of the Arts, Yankee Stadium, Joyce Kilmer Park, and Franz Sigel Park. Transit options are exceptional: the 4, B, and D trains at 161st Street-Yankee Stadium deliver you to Midtown in roughly 20 minutes, Metro-North's Hudson Line at Yankees-E. 153rd Street reaches Grand Central in about 15 minutes, and the Bx1, Bx2, Bx6, Bx13, and BxM4 buses serve the neighborhood. For drivers, the Major Deegan Expressway provides quick connections throughout the metro area. For the investor-minded buyer, the fundamentals are compelling: a substantial lot by NYC standards, zoning that permits flexibility for future improvement
