This property has no certificate of occupancy but is currently set up as a 3-family with an upper duplex and 2 separate apartments on the parlor floor and garden floor.
The garden floor, parlor floor and second floor come with a 12 x 15 sf extension adding an additional spacious bedroom on each of these floors!
This residence retains some original details such as original plaster work, doors and windows moldings and five decorative fireplaces. While the property has been well maintained over the years, it needs a new roof, new windows and electrical upgrades.
The upper duplex is gorgeous, bright and extra spacious. The third floor is an open space with kitchen, dining, living room with an office space and a full bathroom. There is also a large bedroom with 3 windows in the extension that is currently used as a painting studio and 2 more large bedrooms on the fourth floor with an office or a den and another full bathroom.
The parlor floor is extra special with high ceilings and oversized South facing windows overlooking this beautiful prime block. The parlor floor is completely open creating a loft like feeling. The kitchen is open and there is a large windowed bathroom on that floor. The spacious bedroom in the extension comes also with 3 windows facing the quiet garden.
The garden level apartment is in great condition. Here again, the kitchen is open on the dining room/living room with a large bedroom in the front of the apartment facing the street and another large bedroom in the extension of the building facing the lush, quiet, designed garden paved with bluestone.
With 3 kitchens and 4 full bathrooms, you could easily transform this property into an upper triplex + a garden rental apartment or into 2 separate duplexes. Any combination is possible and very easy to do.
This unique brownstone is around the corner from one of the grandest churches in all of Stuyvesant Heights: Our Lady of Victory, on a landmarked brownstone block. Conveniently close to the A and C subway stations as well as many of Bedford Stuyvesant's most reputable hot spots: Saraghina, Lunatico, Peaches, L'Antagoniste among others.
223 MacDonough Street is part of a long row of fourteen houses built in the classic Italianate style. It is notable as one of the two earliest rows in the Stuyvesant Historic District. For over 50 years this building, along with 221 MacDonough Street, were the home of the Bedford Institute. This property is sold as is and is shown by appointment only.
