Property Description

Behind a timeless red brick façade, this fully gut-renovated, two family townhouse presents two stunning residences — a luxurious three-bedroom duplex and a sun-filled garden-level one-bedroom apartment — offering the ideal opportunity to live in a flawless owner’s home while generating income from the second unit.

The upper duplex is a masterful blend of historic architectural character and modern sophistication. Ten-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting the exposed brick, original mantel, and pristine wide-plank floors. A grand, modernized staircase and striking chandelier add a dramatic touch of elegance.

The open chef’s kitchen has been designed with exceptional attention to detail, featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and Samsung stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher. A spacious island with breakfast bar seating anchors the space, perfect for casual dining and entertaining. French doors open to a private outdoor deck, ideal for dining al fresco or enjoying quiet moments outdoors.

Upstairs, three well-appointed bedrooms include a serene primary suite with a luxurious marble en suite bath, skylights, large windows, and generous closet space. Additional features throughout the home include central air and heat, recessed lighting, security cameras, central vacuum, and access to a large cellar with abundant storage and a legal half bath.

The garden-level apartment offers an updated kitchen and bath, stainless steel appliances, and access to a spacious backyard, creating an inviting retreat or excellent income-producing opportunity.

Located on one of the most desirable blocks in Stuyvesant Heights, residents enjoy proximity to the neighborhood’s acclaimed restaurants and cafés — including Peaches, Saraghina, Brooklyn Beso, and Therapy Wine Bar — as well as easy access to the A/C and J/Z trains, connecting seamlessly to the rest of the city.

This exceptional property combines modern luxury, thoughtful design, and timeless Brooklyn charm — a rare opportunity to own a piece of classic architecture reimagined for contemporary living.
