Property Description for 1217 Jefferson Ave

A Meticulously Reimagined Two-Family Townhouse in the Heart of Bushwick

Welcome to 1217 Jefferson Avenue, a masterfully gut-renovated two-family townhouse that seamlessly blends contemporary design, exceptional craftsmanship, and remarkable versatility. Positioned on a quiet, tree-lined block in one of Bushwick's most desirable residential enclaves, this 20-foot-wide home spans approximately 3,600 square feet on a deep 100-foot lot, offering a rare combination of volume, natural light, and thoughtfully designed living.

The owner's duplex is designed for effortless everyday living and exceptional entertaining. The parlor level unfolds into an expansive open-concept living and dining space anchored by a beautifully appointed chef's kitchen featuring a dramatic natural stone island, custom cabinetry, and a premium Miele appliance package. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors extend the living space onto a private deck overlooking the landscaped backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience.

Upstairs, natural light defines the home. A dramatic central skylight illuminates the hallway, while additional skylights fill each bathroom with soft daylight. The primary suite offers generous proportions, a spacious walk-in closet, and a calm, refined atmosphere. Every finish has been selected with longevity and timeless design in mind, from the wide-plank white oak flooring to the carefully curated hardware and fixtures throughout.

Adding to the home's exceptional functionality, the owner's residence includes a dedicated laundry room with generous storage and direct interior access to a fully finished lower level, providing flexible space for a media room, fitness studio, home office, playroom, or additional storage.

The garden residence offers an equally impressive two-bedroom apartment with a private entrance, in-unit washer and dryer, white oak flooring, and direct access to the backyard. Whether utilized as an income-producing rental, guest residence, or multigenerational living space, it provides outstanding flexibility without compromising design.

Additional features include multi-zone heating and cooling, premium materials throughout, abundant storage, and carefully executed renovations that elevate both form and function.

Perfectly situated just moments from Irving Square Park, the home is surrounded by some of Bushwick's favorite neighborhood destinations, including Saint Michel Café, Sunrise/Sunset, Barchaa Cuisine, Flow Pilates, and Kal Yoga. Convenient access to the J, Z, M, and L subway lines places Williamsburg, Downtown Brooklyn, and Manhattan within easy reach.

Beautifully proportioned, impeccably renovated, and thoughtfully designed, 1217 Jefferson Avenue presents a rare opportunity to own a turnkey Brooklyn townhouse that effortlessly balances luxury living with long-term versatility.

Bushwick | Brooklyn

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).
