Configured as a 20’ x 50’ owners duplex, the residence offers three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, two powder rooms, private outdoor space, and a finished basement, along with a separate, beautifully scaled two bedroom, one bathroom rental complete with an in-unit washer and dryer.
The parlor level immediately captivates with meticulously restored architectural details, including the original staircase, pier mirror, intricate woodwork, and a wood-burning fireplace. Recently enhanced with a custom-fitted fireplace insert, the hearth now delivers the ambiance of a real wood fire with improved thermal efficiency and a sleek, contemporary aesthetic.
The expansive living and entertaining spaces flow seamlessly across the parlor floor. A gracious living room with the fireplace anchors the home, followed by a dining area and a stylish powder room. The chef’s kitchen features floor-to-ceiling navy cabinetry with brushed gold hardware, an oversized white island, and premium stainless steel appliances including a Wolf gas range. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open to a private deck, perfect for outdoor dining and effortless access to the private backyard.
The current owners have further elevated the home with thoughtful upgrades, including CityQuiet soundproof windows installed in the parlor and third-floor bay windows for enhanced comfort and tranquility, as well as custom-designed built-out closets in the primary suite.
Upstairs, natural light pours in from a brand new, expansive skylight positioned above the staircase. The second floor features a generous primary suite at the rear of the home with custom closets providing exceptional storage and organization. Two additional bedrooms are located at the front and share a full bathroom, while a dedicated laundry room with washer and dryer completes the level.
The fully finished basement adds flexible living space with a powder room, ideal for recreation, a home office, gym, or additional storage.
The garden level features a private two-bedroom apartment with its own entrance, full bathroom, open kitchen and living area, and in-unit washer and dryer hookups. This space offers an excellent opportunity for rental income, guest accommodations, or extended living.
Located within the Linden Street Historic District, designated by the Landmarks Preservation Commission in 2023, the home is part of the first and only historic district in Bushwick. This remarkably preserved stretch of 32 brick and brownstone row houses offers a unique sense of architectural continuity and historic character rarely found in the neighborhood.
Perfectly positioned on the border of Bushwick and Bed-Stuy, the home enjoys easy access to some of Brooklyn’s most exciting restaurants, cafés, and cultural venues, along with convenient transportation options throughout the city.
A rare opportunity to own a classic Brooklyn Brownstone that seamlessly blends historic character, modern upgrades, and protected architectural significance.
