Description
Introducing 198 Putnam Avenue, a fully renovated two-family townhouse for sale in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. This four-story townhouse plus a finished basement spans 3,341 square feet and seamlessly blends historic charm with modern luxury. Featuring five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and two half bathrooms, this spacious two family home is perfect for end users or investors seeking a move-in-ready property in one of Brooklyn's most desirable neighborhoods.
From the moment you arrive, you'll be captivated by the home's curb appeal-featuring high-end Hardie Board siding, a charming bluestone-front porch with room for seating, and custom planter boxes that add a warm, welcoming touch. Step inside through a tiled entry foyer that flows into an airy open-concept living and dining area, beautifully finished with chevron-patterned white oak flooring. A conveniently located powder room is tucked just off the dining area, while the rear of the home opens into a stunning chef's kitchen. Outfitted with a premium appliance package-including a paneled 36" Sub-Zero French door refrigerator, stainless steel La Cornue five-burner gas range, double-wide sink, dedicated coffee bar, and ample pantry storage-the kitchen also features French doors that lead to a rear deck and a fully finished backyard oasis.
Up a custom-designed staircase awaits the luxurious second floor, home to a sprawling primary suite complete with a massive walk-in closet and a spa-inspired en suite bath. The bathroom features a dual vanity, dual rainfall showerheads, and a large soaking tub, creating a true retreat. This level also includes a spacious second bedroom, perfect for use as a nursery or home office.
The third floor offers two generously sized bedrooms-one rear-facing, one front-facing-each with its own en suite bathroom. The front-facing bedroom features French doors that open to a private terrace. A dedicated laundry station and two oversized closets for extra storage round out this level.
Ascend one more flight to the bulkhead, which leads directly to your private roof deck-perfect for lounging, entertaining, or simply taking in panoramic Brooklyn views.
The garden level serves as a well-appointed one-bedroom, one-bathroom rental unit with its own laundry-ideal for generating passive income.
The fully finished basement, accessible from the owner's unit, is the ultimate recreational space. Complete with a wall-mounted projector and screen for movie nights, this level also includes a convenient half bathroom.
Located just off Bedford Avenue, 198 Putnam Avenue is surrounded by some of Bed-Stuy's best local gems. Enjoy dining at acclaimed neighborhood restaurants such as S'mor, The Swan, Ursula, and more.
