Property Description for 537 Gates Ave, 1

An oasis in Brooklyn. A 2BR condo, in Bedford Stuyvesant, with a lovely garden.

Cozy is the best way to describe this modern apartment, however, don't be misled, this is a spacious condo. There is a living and dining room, a granite and stainless steel kitchen, with recessed lighting, and 1.5 bathrooms. It comes with a large storage room, W/D and is pet friendly.

Now back to that garden. Although Fall is steadily approaching, there is still time left to enjoy this tranquil space with your friends. An outdoor fire pit comes with the garden, to warm you up, while drinking a glass of wine. The sweetest supplement to the yard is the vine that is producing an abundance of cherry tomatoes, which may inspire you to develop a green thumb.

As for the neighborhood, Bed Stuy is a culturally rich section of Brooklyn that feels like home. More and more businesses are opening here, including restaurants, cocktail lounges, juice bars and boutiques. The C and G trains are in close proximity, while the B52 can get you downtown in 15 minutes. This is a definite must see.

Quick Profile

Known for its historic brownstones and tight-knit enclave, Bed-Stuy has increasingly left behind its early reputation for being a “bedroom community” and transcended into a highly desirable neighborhood. 

Distinct for its aesthetic, it is populated with ornate buildings characterized by cornices, friezes, finials, fluting and other marks of classic architecture. Built up during the period from 1870 to 1900, its historic district runs to the north of Jefferson Avenue, to the east of Malcolm X Boulevard and to the west of Tompkins Avenue. 

At one point known as “Brooklyn’s Little Harlem,” the shape of the area has shifted toward attracting a wider demographic of people thanks to the influx of bars, restaurants, antique furniture stores and vintage boutiques. More police enforcement paired with the decline of the crack epidemic at the beginning of the 2000s also opened the door for increased development, as well as the occupation of formerly abandoned buildings and spaces.
