427 Franklin Ave

Positioned on the Clinton Hill and Bed-Stuy border, 427 Franklin Avenue is configured as an owner’s duplex over a garden apartment, offering a balanced combination of primary living and income potential. Up the stoop, a striking Venetian plaster entry introduces the parlor floor, anchored by a bright great room with an open kitchen, seamlessly incorporating dining and living areas, along with a powder room. High ceilings, hardwood floors, and a decorative fireplace define the space, which flows directly to a private deck off the kitchen, with access to the full backyard, including a small garden with rose bushes. The kitchen is designed with custom millwork cabinetry, ample storage, and a full appliance suite including a five-burner range, dishwasher, and beverage refrigerator. The upper level is arranged as the primary living quarters, with three bedrooms. The primary suite includes a custom walk-in closet and overlooks the rear garden. The second bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-size bed, and the third is currently configured as a nursery. A spa-like bathroom features a skylight, large-format tile, and a separate shower and soaking tub. A finished basement provides additional space suitable for a media room, playroom, or home office, along with a washer and dryer. The garden-level apartment is configured as a separate unit with an open kitchen, living area, and a spacious bedroom, along with access to a private outdoor patio. Located along Franklin Avenue, the home offers access to the A, C, G, and S subway lines, along with the surrounding neighborhood amenities.
