Property Description for 29 Decatur Street

NEW to Market: 29 Decatur Street "The Artisinal Home" on an Historic District block in prime Bed-Stuy is an artistic, bright and spacious designer two-family brick townhouse that has been gut renovated and transformed into a spectacular showplace while maintaining a warm and cozy vibe. With its large 20'X42' floor plate over three floors, 29 Decatur Street also benefits by its location in prime Stuyvesant Heights just one block away from the Kingston-Throop C train, near excellent shopping and dining and in the heart of the bustling Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn renaissance.

Designed by the fashion designer/owner in neutral shades to emphasize natural light and accented with wood beamed ceilings throughout, 29 Decatur Street is an artistic masterpiece that harkens to Bed-Stuy's elegant history, but is fully renovated down to the studs for modern living. The classic marble and wood foyer leads to a spacious entry and parlor with stripped-to-natural oak floors, original massive doors, Venetian Plaster walls, ultra-high beamed ceilings and an airy volume of space. The parlor flows to an extra large dining room/open kitchen with large cabinets, sleek center island, updated Bertazzoni stainless steel appliances, heated bluestone floor and original plaster ceiling moldings and center medallions, all illuminated by a wall of windows framing an outside deck.

A glossy white staircase leads to the residential floor. The primary suite, an airy oasis with a large walk in closet and bathroom worthy of Architectural Digest is the perfect spot for rest and relaxation with big south-facing windows framed by linen curtains. The bathroom is like a contemporary spa with heated epoxy floors, Venetian Plaster walls, a huge free-floating cast iron tub and contemporary fixtures. There are two additional bedrooms and another elegant bathroom on this floor.

The Garden level of 29 Decatur Street is not a throwaway space: wide open with a loft feel including original beamed ceilings, a large storage/entry/foyer, open kitchen/living room and large luxury bathroom, this studio (easily converted to one bedroom) is ideal as a rental or to be annexed into the upper duplex. Tastefully designed with large windows, the lower level is a natural flow to the shared garden of 29 Decatur Street, a lovely space with flagstone patio and grassy yard.

29 Decatur Street is more than a two-family Bed-Stuy townhouse; with it's thoughtful, artisanal details and open airy volume of space, "The Artisanal Home" is the antidote to stuffy, old-fashioned and heavy houses. Close to Saraghina @saraghinabrooklyn Peaches @peachesbrooklyn Peaches Hothouse @peacheshothouse Chez Oskar @chezoskar Mama Fox @mamafoxbk Nana Ramen @nana.ramen and excellent transportation, 29 Decatur Street is your Brooklyn two-family oasis with proven income and the ease of a turnkey renovation.

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.
