$925K duplex with a secret arch and backyard fire pit is a Bed-Stuy oasis
Located in the Stuyvesant Heights section of “arguably the most beautiful block in Bedford Stuyvesant,” according to the listing, this charming duplex has a ton of hidden magic for under $1 million. The one-bedroom-plus-den condo occupies the garden and lower levels in a brownstone at 579 Jefferson Avenue and boasts a lovely backyard complete with a patio, fire pit, and rustic wooden walls. Inside, more architectural and decorative surprises await.
In total, the home spans 1358 square feet with an additional 455 square feet outside. On the main level, is the living/dining space, which takes full advantage of the townhouse’s bay window.
The living space is open to a renovated kitchen, which comes with a walk-in pantry.
Past the kitchen is the bright, south-facing bedroom. It has three large closets and a fully renovated en-suite bathroom complete with a deep soaking tub, heated floors, and waterfall shower head. Through the bedroom awaits the magical back garden.
A spiral staircase leads to the lower level, where you’ll enter through the building’s original wine cellar arch. This large open space is currently configured as a den/office but would make a great second bedroom considering there are three large storage spaces and a half bath here, too.
