Property Description for 88 Lexington Ave, 1-B

Welcome to 88 Lexington Ave at the historic intersection of Clinton Hill and Bedford-Stuyvesant where old warehouses blend with 19th century brownstones. This apartment is a light-filled and expansive two level, two bedroom, two bathroom, plus home-office duplex. The architect has created a flawless design that merges loft-like details, wide plank floors, large windows, and exposed brick with warm woods, and a soft color palette. Top-of-the-line kitchen appliances (Bertazzoni, Fisher & Paykel), bath fixtures (Brizo, Duravit and Scarabeo) and washer/dryer (Bosch) compliment the design with quality. Comfortable throughout with central A/C and heating. The downstairs primary suite provides a whisper-quiet sanctuary equipped with underfloor heating, a private office, built-in closets and a spa-like bathroom, and glass doors leading to a private terrace. The living area extends to the outdoors with an impressive sun-filled private backyard equipped with a built-in custom kitchen with powder-coated steel and concrete countertops, set on Italian pavers and secluded by Brazilian Ipe wood fencing. Amenities include a ButterflyMX smartphone video intercom system, private storage and a package delivery room. The building is wired for FIOS (Fiber-Optic), and ethernet ports in the main living spaces. The Clinton Hill / Bedford-Stuyvesant community offers an array of award-winning restaurants, bars and cafes such as Places des Fetes, Speedy Romeo, Guevara’s, Izzy Rose and Peaches. The nearby Pratt institute paved the way for fantastic art galleries and creative shops. Walk to Fort Greene Farmer’s Markets, Yoga, Vintage Stores and more. Close proximity to the A, C and G trains provide easy access to Manhattan and Queens. *Exterior building photos by Ben Fitchett Photography.

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.
