About the Listing HOWO01 - 201180

A new price, the same unforgettable backyard, and perhaps a little better timing? The feedback has been positive and one thing keeps coming up: that yard! Approximately 1,000 square feet of private outdoor space is not something you come across every day in a Brooklyn condo. Add a thoughtfully styled duplex, a flexible layout, and a home that the current owner has filled with warmth and personality, and there’s quite a bit to appreciate here. Sometimes a home simply needs to meet the right buyer at the right moment. Perhaps this is yours. Ask about the First-Time Homebuyer Program offering as little as 5% down, competitive rates, and NO PMI! Eligibility and program terms apply. Welcome to Residence 1B, a beautifully designed one-bedroom duplex offering abundant natural light, a flexible layout, and private outdoor space accessible from both levels. The main level features wide-plank hardwood floors and an open-concept kitchen with abundant walnut cabinetry, white quartz countertops, and Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances including a dishwasher. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the spacious living and dining area, with an in-unit washer and dryer adding everyday convenience. The queen-sized bedroom overlooks the backyard, while the full bathroom features a deep soaking tub and heated floors for year-round comfort. Downstairs, an expansive finished lower level adds another dimension to the home. With generous ceiling height, great lighting, a walk-in closet, powder room, and direct access to the rear garden through the areaway, this versatile space offers room for a media lounge, home office, fitness studio, guest retreat, or additional living space. The powder room also presents space and opportunity for expansion into a full bathroom, subject to applicable approvals. And then, of course, there’s the backyard. With approximately 1,000 square feet to enjoy, there’s room for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, or simply having a quiet place of your own in the middle of Brooklyn. Perfectly situated in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Residence 1B places you moments from some of Brooklyn’s beloved cafés, restaurants, and neighborhood favorites, including Daphne’s, Saraghina, Peaches, L’Antagoniste, Trad Room, and Chez Oskar. Local coffee shops, bakeries, and markets add to the neighborhood’s charm. The Kingston–Throop Avenue C station and Nostrand Avenue A/C stations are nearby, providing convenient access to Downtown Brooklyn, Manhattan, and beyond. Additional bus routes and Citi Bike stations make getting around just as easy. A home with personality, room to make it your own, and an outdoor space that deserves to be experienced in person.
