Property Description for 1518 Putnam Ave, 2

Welcome to the Apartment that actually feels like a Home! A captivating opportunity on the Bushwick/Ridgewood border! A turn-of-the-century gem, where the Art Nouveau and Arts & Crafts Period of early 1900s Brooklyn meet modern upgrades and luxury conveniences! Unit #2 is a 3-Bedroom (3BR) 1-Bath (1BA) located on the top floor of this 2-family townhouse and is a sprawling 1,100 sqft of tasteful finishes and expertly crafted details. You'll immediately fall in love with the elegant hardwood floors that span throughout the apartment and time-of-day-based floods of light received from the Eastern exposures for the kitchen and primary bedroom, the Western exposures for the smaller bedroom / office and living room space, and the home's skylights, which bring natural illumination to the interior bedroom, laundry space, and bathroom of the unit! This apartment was remodeled as the owner's home, outfitted for all of the benefits of modern conveniences, like central A/C, and the working fireplace; while still being graced with the touches of a bygone era like coffered crossbeam ceilings and antique refurbished built-ins. The primary bedroom and interior bedroom are sizable enough to fit queen-sized beds or larger with additional furniture as needed. The smaller front bedroom is ideal as a home office right off the living room space. There is also a ton of closets throughout every room of the home, so storage shouldn't be an issue! The building is located 1 ½ blocks from the L & M train stop @ Myrtle & Wyckoff Avenue, which is only 15 minutes into Manhattan. The block is a quiet, tree-lined street in a residential neighborhood with plentiful eateries, coffeehouses, and tons of shopping and entertainment nearby. Across the street is the largest 'Food Bazaar' Supermarket in Brooklyn. Nearby green spaces include the Bushwick Park & Playground with basketball, tennis courts & base/softball fields (1 block away), and Irving Park (4 blocks away), or Bushwick's iconic Maria Hernandez Park, which is 1 short stop away on the L train!

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).
