From the original listing · ZillowShow

Welcome home to this generous 3-bedroom garden-level apartment in a classic Bedford-Stuyvesant brownstone. Exposed brick adds warmth and character throughout, and in-unit laundry and a dishwasher make everyday living easy.

Step outside to your own private backyard, perfect for morning coffee, summer dinners, or a little gardening. Interior stairs lead down to an unfinished basement, ideal for storage or a casual rec room. Please note the basement is not a legal living space and may not be used as a bedroom.

The location is ideal. You're a short walk from Herbert Von King Park and just steps from Tompkins Avenue, one of Bed-Stuy's favorite stretches for restaurants, cafes, and neighborhood shops. Getting around is easy with the G train at Bedford-Nostrand Avs, and the A/C at Nostrand Av all close by, plus the LIRR at Nostrand Avenue for quick trips out of the city.

Highlights:

3 bedrooms on the garden level of a classic brownstone 1.5 bathrooms Private backyard PLUS Unfinished basement Washer/dryer in unit Dishwasher Exposed brick Interior stairs to unfinished basement, great for storage or a rec room (not for living space) Hot water included; tenant pays electric and gas Near Herbert Von King Park, Tompkins Avenue dining, and the G, A/C trains
