Property Description for 171 Lexington Ave, 4

Residence 4 at 171 Lexington Avenue is a quietly exceptional two-bedroom condominium that balances architectural restraint, private outdoor living, and boutique exclusivity with a level of polish rarely found in Bedford-Stuyvesant. Accessed directly via keyed elevator entry, the home unfolds with an immediate sense of privacy and intention - a thoughtfully composed residence where every detail has been considered through both a design and lifestyle lens.
Wrapped in oversized southern and eastern-facing windows, the expansive great room is saturated with natural light throughout the day, creating an atmosphere that feels simultaneously bright, serene, and deeply residential. Framed by open sky and surrounding greenery, the space carries a calm sophistication, while warm hardwood floors and clean architectural lines lend an understated elegance throughout. Sliding glass doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, opening onto a private terrace that functions as a true extension of the living space - equally suited for intimate dinners, slow mornings, or effortless entertaining.
The kitchen was designed to be both visually refined and genuinely functional, anchored by a substantial stone island that naturally becomes the center of the home. Custom cabinetry, tailored storage, and a carefully selected appliance suite - including a Bertazzoni gas range and microwave, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher - create a space that feels elevated without sacrificing practicality. Every finish has been thoughtfully selected, allowing texture, proportion, and natural light to shape the home's calm, elevated atmosphere.
Privately tucked away from the entertaining spaces, the bedroom wing overlooks a canopy of neighboring gardens, offering a rare sense of stillness within the city. The primary suite opens onto its own secluded balcony - a second outdoor retreat that feels intimate and almost townhouse-like in character - while custom Elfa systems integrated throughout the closets introduce a level of organization typically reserved for larger custom homes. The bath is quietly luxurious, finished in crisp materials and centered around a deep soaking tub that evokes a distinctly spa-like atmosphere.
Additional conveniences include a vented in-unit washer and dryer discreetly concealed within a utility closet with additional storage capacity, as well as a deeded private storage room measuring approximately 4'6" x 9'4".
Built in 2015, 171 Lexington Avenue is an intimate five-residence condominium positioned at the intersection of Bedford-Stuyvesant and Clinton Hill - a neighborhood defined by historic brownstone architecture, creative energy, and an evolving collection of celebrated restaurants, independent cafés, cocktail bars, galleries, and design-forward retail. Nearby access to the G, A, C, and S trains provides seamless connectivity throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan while preserving the distinctly neighborhood-oriented rhythm that continues to make this pocket of Brooklyn so compelling.
Residence 4 offers something increasingly rare: a home that feels intentional in every respect - private yet connected, refined yet warm, and deeply aligned with the way modern Brooklyn living aspires to feel.

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.
