Property Description for 980 Metropolitan Ave
Tucked behind an olive-green facade on a 25-foot-wide lot, 980 Metropolitan Avenue is a fully reimagined fully-detached single family townhouse where earthy materials and modern craftsmanship create a home that feels truly special.
The parlor level welcomes you with a tiled vestibule and over nine-foot ceilings, opening into a serene living area framed by graceful arches and designer lighting. An arched built-in niche and a discreet coat closet connect the living room to the show-stopping kitchen, the heart of the home, where eco-friendly cabinetry meets honed Taj Mahal quartzite countertops and backsplash. A suite of Bosch appliances includes an induction cooktop, and thoughtful details like a wet bar, wine refrigerator, and dual pantries make everyday living feel elevated. A stylish powder room completes the level.
A rear wall of glass opens to a sprawling garden, 25 feet wide, with a deck, expansive patio, and raised planting area at the back. It's the perfect setting for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining.
Upstairs are three serene bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed with built-ins and abundant natural light. The primary suite features a large, windowed walk-in closet and a breathtaking skylit bathroom with a custom-built, double vanity topped in stone, a separate shower, soaking tub, and private water closet. The two secondary bedrooms share another skylit bathroom with a custom stone-topped vanity and beautiful designer finishes. From this level, stairs lead to the brand-new roof - the perfect canvas for your future roof deck dreams.
The finished lower level offers flexible living space with multiple windows, a full bathroom, and a bright laundry area. With its own entry under the stoop and multiple climate zones, this level works equally well as a den, guest suite, or creative workspace.
Every detail of this down-to-the-stud renovation was executed with care - from the custom arches and layered lighting to new double-pane aluminum windows and an upgraded EV charging port in front. The result is a house that feels at once grounded and refined: organic, calm, and ready to call home.

East Williamsburg | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
East Williamsburg is a mixed industrial neighborhood in Brooklyn, with many working factories that make everything from beer and wontons to clothing and concrete. You are likely to hear screeching, pounding and the deep thump of industrial machinery throughout the day. East Williamsburg has become a haven for artists and musicians of every description, who are attracted to the large open loft spaces of the converted industrial buildings. The area has attracted a younger crowd of 20- and 30-somethings that are drawn by affordable rents and a generally lower cost of living.
There is a rich history of immigrants from Puerto Rico and Italy, and oddly enough, they chose to settle on opposite ends of Graham Avenue, with the Italians on the north and the Puerto Ricans on the south.
Housing in the area consists of mid-rise apartment buildings, row houses, and public housing complexes. There are also smaller multi-family apartment buildings available. Lofts are becoming more prevalent as the older, abandoned factory buildings come up for sale and are converted into residential properties.
East Williamsburgfairly pulses with a creative vibe. There are unique shopping venues, numerous tiny coffee shops, interesting restaurants, and cafes, along with food trucks that frequent the area. The grocery stores are affordable and carry a wide variety of goods that appeal to the eclectic tastes of the neighborhood residents.
There is a vibrant bar scene, where you will find mostly local residents imbibing, so it is easy to make friends among your neighbors if you stop in frequently at your favorite watering hole. There are many interesting shops, bars and restaurants tucked in amongst the warehouses and factories. Many do not invest in elaborate signage, so it can be difficult to find some of the best spots. Keep an eye out for hand-painted signs on the sides of buildings with arrows pointing to nondescript, nearly invisible entrances.
