Just three easy flights up, you walk into a beautifully proportioned living/dining area, high ceilinged and brilliantly bright, with wide plank white oak floors and multiple oversized windows across the eastern front. Plenty of space for formal dining and entertaining! The open kitchen is replete with breakfast bar seating, elegant shaker style cabinets, Pietra Cardosa countertops, a paneled Meile dishwasher, Maytag double-doored stainless fridge and a high-end stainless Wolf range capable of cooking for an army! The bathroom is equipped with beautifully tiled floors, a Toto dual flush commode and a beautifully crafted custom wood frame medicine cabinet. To the rear of the home is the washer/dryer, and there are two spacious and quiet bedrooms with ample closet space and beautiful townhouse garden views. And the true pièce de résistance is your very own private and breezy outdoor roofdeck! Almost 19’ x 24’, with 360 degree views of brownstone Brooklyn, you’ll never tire of hosting summer BBQs, happy hours, epic sunny WFH sessions and more.

581 Putnam is a four unit townhouse originally built in 1899 and renovated by the Brooklyn Home Company in 2017. Incredibly low common charges are sure to delight, and this home comes with your own deeded basement storage space. Located on a lush tree-lined brownstone block in Brooklyn’s Bedford Stuyvesant neighborhood, this one is close to tons of bustling shops, cafés, and restaurants like the beloved Saraghina just around the corner.
