Welcome to 142A Putnam Ave

Built in 1899, this lovely, elegant Neo-Grec Four Family Brownstone Townhouse is situated in a highly desirable location in Prime Bedford Stuyvesant on a quiet, tree-lined street, just one block away from the Clinton Hill border near the corner of Franklin Ave and Putnam Ave.

As you step foot into the garden and parlor floors, you will see that it has been combined into an owner’s duplex with exclusive access to an outdoor oasis. The garden level is terrific for entertaining with a large living room and a beautiful eat-in kitchen that leads to the garden which boasts over 800 square feet. The Master and Guest bedrooms are serenely located on the Parlor Floor. Its high ceilings and large windows throughout offer a wonderful sense of light and space. The original character of the home has been thoughtfully retained with the main staircase banister, etched glass entry door in vestibule, exposed brick, original ornate woodwork, wainscoting, ceiling medallions and several decorative marble fireplaces throughout the house.

On the Third Floor are Two Studio apartments. One Studio faces front and gets northern exposure while the rear facing studio gets southern exposure. On the Fourth Floor is a One-Bedroom apartment that spans across the length of the building. There are 3 magnificent Skylights! One in the hallway and 2 in the apartment that leaves the top floor drenched with rays of sunshine throughout the day! A full cellar provides excellent storage.

Bedford Stuyvesant | Brooklyn

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.
