Live or generate income, 590 Monroe St is Positioned on a picturesque stretch of Monroe Street between Lewis and Stuyvesant Avenues, this exceptional two-family brownstone seamlessly blends historic charm with modern sophistication. Boasting a coveted south-facing garden, the home offers an abundance of natural light and a serene outdoor retreat.

Meticulously reimagined through a comprehensive, high-quality renovation, the property is delivered in turnkey condition. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated, including new electrical systems, upgraded lighting throughout, new gas and water infrastructure, and two newly installed boilers—one dedicated to each residence. The home is further enhanced by new windows, and beautiful hardwood flooring, with select original wood details preserved to honor its architectural heritage.

Both residences feature private vented washer and dryer units, offering ultimate convenience and modern comfort. The fully excavated and finished basement adds substantial value and flexibility, while approximately 1,494 square feet of unused FAR presents a rare opportunity for future expansion.

It features a spacious front living area, abundant storage, and a sleek galley kitchen outfitted with stainless steel appliances. A dedicated laundry room enhances functionality.

Lower Level
