Enter the home, perched above the trees, into the living room and open kitchen spanning the front of the home. This area boasts large windows where the birds sing and light streams in. Clean and tasteful finishes throughout. There is exposed brick, and white oak hardwood floors. The 2 bedrooms are quietly tucked in the rear of the home. There is HVAC throughout, and in unit washer and dryer plus plenty of storage in the home. But that’s not all, there is a large additional deeded storage in the building, great for bikes and off season items.

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.
