The classic brick exterior, meticulously restored and freshly painted, pays homage to the neighborhood's rich architectural heritage. A striking presence on a tree-lined street, this townhouse stands as a testament to both its historic roots and contemporary luxury. Step through the newly restored wooden front door into the inviting vestibule, where you'll immediately sense the character and craftsmanship of this home. The interior seamlessly blends classic and contemporary design. You will enjoy the parlor level’s open-concept living space flooded with natural light, thanks to both large windows that overlook the picturesque street, and the stunning window wall at the rear of the house. The original wood-burning fireplace has been restored to working order and is flanked by arched built-in bookcases that provide charm and utility. The gourmet kitchen is a culinary masterpiece, equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, including a six-burner Wolf stove, paneled Fisher Paykel 36” refrigerator, paneled dishwasher, and pot filler. The custom Farrow & Ball studio green cabinets are complimented by quartz countertops and the expansive center island that serves as the focal point for casual dining and entertaining. There is an adjacent custom bar, perfect for coffee or wine (or both), with open shelving and extensive storage. The adjacent dining area exudes elegance and easily transitions into the living room area. This floor also features a Farrow & Ball Railings powder room with an Arabescato marble sink and wall-hung fixtures. Throughout the home, rich hardwood floors create an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication. The upper levels host generously sized bedrooms, including a lavish master suite complete with a double closet and a spa-like, ensuite Dolomite marble bathroom featuring a double vanity and large standing shower. The additional two bedrooms share a beautifully renovated bathroom. Another lovely feature of this home is the staircase leading to the rooftop, another outdoor space to enjoy views of the neighborhood and city. The beautifully crafted staircase leading off the main floor leads down to the finished basement with a half bath, the perfect space for an office, rec room, or media space. The separate garden floor two-bedroom unit can serve as an income-producing property or in-law apartment. Beyond the walls of this exceptional townhouse, you'll discover the convenience of public transportation at the nearby Halsey J station or Ralph C station, making your daily commute a breeze. The neighborhood’s second largest park, Saratoga Park, featuring a new playground and dog park is just one block away. Bed-Stuy's vibrant neighborhood is rich in culture, offering an array of establishments such as Cuts & Slices, Early Yves, September, and the infamous Saraghina’s. *Interest rate discount varies depending on the lending institution

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.
