The owner's home opens to a dramatic, open-concept main living level where living, dining, and kitchen spaces unfold seamlessly beneath soaring ceilings. Anchoring the space is a striking chef's kitchen, conceived as both a functional workspace and a visual centerpiece. A generous eat-in island with a bold waterfall edge is complemented by a coordinating full-height backsplash and sculptural hood cover. Light wood imported Italian cabinetry brightens the room, contrasting beautifully with crisp white surfaces and oversized black-trimmed windows that flood the space with natural light. An impressive appliance package includes a Wolf oven, a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and other premium appliances, blending modern aesthetics with state-of-the-art performance. The natural flow continues through the living and dining areas, making the level equally suited for intimate evenings and large-scale entertaining. A gracious sitting area framed by a curved window alcove creates an inviting architectural moment and a natural place to pause, read, or gather.
The top floor serves as a true haven of respite. The primary suite is generously scaled, featuring a spacious bedroom, a walk-through closet leading to the primary bath, and direct access to a private balcony. Two additional sizable bedrooms share this level, along with a full bathroom. Bathrooms on this floor are finished with custom vanities and large-format tilework, while the primary bath impresses with a double-sink vanity, gray herringbone tile flooring with a coordinating backsplash, and a spacious rain shower that feels decidedly spa-like. A dedicated laundry room completes the level.
The lower level offers a massive recreation room-an adaptable retreat well suited for a media lounge, gym, studio, or playroom-complete with a powder room and excellent ceiling height, extending the home's flexibility and livability.
The garden level of the home functions as a separate apartment and features a sizable great room with distinct living, dining, and kitchen areas. This level also includes a full bathroom with a shower, a dedicated laundry area, and two well-proportioned bedrooms that overlook a lush, verdant backyard. A covered patio extends the living experience outdoors, offering a tranquil, weather-protected space for dining or lounging amid greenery.
Set on a quiet, tree-lined block in Bushwick, minutes from the L, J, and Z trains, 735 Chauncey Street offers a compelling blend of architectural presence, modern luxury, and livable scale. Surrounded by neighborhood cafés, dining, and transit options, this home stands apart as a thoughtfully crafted residence designed for today's urban lifestyle-elevated, light-filled, and uncompromising in detail.
Quick Profile
As one of the most diverse neighborhoods in New York, Bushwick offers a perfect snapshot of just how multicultural the city is. Long-established as an amalgam of cultures and ethnicities, a wave of varying types of immigrants trickled in from the seventeenth to twentieth centuries, with Bushwick largely becoming a home to Hispanics of Puerto Rican and Dominican backgrounds by the latter part of the twentieth century.
With the Bushwick Initiative of the mid-00s that aided in revitalization, it became an attractive area to young professionals and artists. And even now, Bushwick has sustained affordable rent prices where other North Brooklyn counterparts, like Williamsburg and Greenpoint, have become more expensive. Priding itself on the weird and the wacky, numerous art collectives thrive in this part of Brooklyn, once famously named the seventh coolest neighborhood in the world by Vogue.
Though it has drawn in many tourists in recent years (there’s even a graffiti tour you can take from the Bushwick Collective), the neighborhood remains very much community-oriented, and has not been subject to quite the same sort of corporate infiltration phenomenon of its nearby Williamsburg environs.
But yes, of course, Bushwick has come a very long way from its 80s and 90s reputation as being “The Well,” a nickname given to it for its free-flowing and widely available amount of drugs (quantity over quality being the cliche applied here).
