From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Welcome to your Brooklyn hub! Set in the heart of Stuyvesant Heights, this open-layout garden-level duplex offers a flexible two-level living experience with the added bonus of outdoor space. The main level flows easily for everyday living, while the lower level provides additional space to spread out, work from home, create, or simply unwind. Skylights on the lower level allow natural light to filter in, giving the space a brighter, more open feel. Thoughtful everyday conveniences include a dishwasher and washer/dryer, while direct access to a portion of the backyard reserved for the apartment extends your living space outdoors-perfect for morning coffee, an evening glass of wine, or simply enjoying a little fresh air at home. And then there's the neighborhood. Stuyvesant Heights puts some of Bed-Stuy's favorite destinations within easy reach, including beloved neighborhood staple Saraghina, the intimate Japanese-inspired Trad Room, local cafes, and the newly opened SOL Reform + Recover, offering Pilates, yoga, strength training, and recovery experiences. Convenient transportation nearby makes it easy to venture beyond the neighborhood when you need to-but with so much right outside your door, you may find yourself staying local more often. Space, convenience, outdoor living, and the energy of one of Brooklyn's most beloved neighborhoods-welcome home to Stuyvesant Heights. **Please note the photos are from the previous listing. The tenant is currently in the process of moving out. **NO PETS ALLOWED
