Historic Interior Pairs with Contemporary Touches at This $2.75M Bed-Stuy Brownstone

Are all the prettiest listings in Bed-Stuy? It sure seems like it these days! This brownstone at 25 Monroe Street is on the market asking $2.75 million. It has a beautifully restored historic interior that’s been paired with a more modern renovation to add a contemporary touch. The result is an impressive balance of both old and new.

The four-story, 3,260-square-foot house is currently configured as two duplex apartments. According to the listing, it could be delivered vacant or with a tenant in place for the upper duplex. As for the lower owner’s duplex, it is outfitted with original details like crown molding, French doors, ceiling medallions, decorative fireplaces and woodwork.

Tall windows, high ceilings and a fun contemporary design make for a bright home with lots of light. It feels like the sunshine is just pouring through into the interior.

Those historic details are accompanied by some attractive modern upgrades. The kitchen looks especially nice, with its tile backsplash and sleek cabinetry. An updated bathroom is now outfitted in marble.

Even the bedroom has its own fireplace. There are four bedrooms total, so two bedrooms per duplex.

Finally, there’s a very nice patio with new fencing in the backyard. This space has a little bit of everything: a patio to sit out and BBQ, landscaping, and even a swath of grass. Very nice, indeed.
