Property Description
Welcome to 938 Putnam Avenue, a beautifully restored Renaissance Revival brownstone built in 1899, blending timeless architectural charm with refined modern finishes. Nestled on a picturesque block in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, this elegant two-family townhouse offers flexible living with a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom owner's duplex and a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom garden-level rental.
Restored Parlor Level with Original Details
Enter through a grand, refinished entry door into a welcoming tiled vestibule. The parlor level showcases classic craftsmanship with original woodwork, exposed brick, wide plank oak floors, working shutters, and a working wood-burning fireplace. Floor-to-ceiling south-facing windows at the rear flood the living area with natural light, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere.
High-End Chef's Kitchen & Outdoor Space
The open-concept kitchen is a culinary dream, featuring quartz countertops, a striking waterfall island, and a premium suite of appliances: six-burner Wolf gas stove, integrated French door refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, pot filler, and farmhouse sink. There is custom cabinetry on both sides of the kitchen. Full-glass doors open to a spacious parlor deck, ideal for entertaining and overlooking a peaceful, landscaped garden.
Thoughtfully Designed Bedroom Level
Upstairs, find three bedrooms and two full bathrooms illuminated by three skylights. The primary suite offers a tranquil escape, complete with a spa-like en-suite bathroom featuring a double vanity, a freestanding soaking tub, a glass-enclosed rain shower, and elegant tile work. The second full bath features marble tiling and a shower/tub combo.
Finished Cellar for Versatile Use
Accessible via an internal staircase from the owner's duplex, the finished cellar includes a half bathroom and provides the perfect space for a home gym, media room, office, or creative studio.
Income-Producing Garden Apartment
The garden-level unit is a self-contained 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment with direct backyard access-perfect for rental income, guests, or extended family accommodations.
Peaceful Location in Bedford-Stuyvesant
Chez Alex and Toad Style are a block away and you are minutes away from the many great restaurants on Malcolm X. Peace and playgrounds are a few blocks out at Saratoga Park and convenient subway options connecting you to Manhattan and beyond.
