About This Home
A Rarity Reimagined in Stuyvesant Heights
254 Stuyvesant Avenue is a majestic 4-story, 3-family brick and brownstone townhouse that pairs classic architectural character with thoughtful modern upgrades. Built in 1899 and completely renovated within the last six years, this 20" x 42" home spans over 3,360 square feet and sits on a 100-foot deep lot. Whether you're seeking a turnkey investment property or a forever home with income-generating potential, this Stuyvesant Heights gem is the rare offering that delivers on both.
Configured as a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath owner's triplex with a finished cellar, and two (2-bedroom, 1-bath) floor-through residences above, every unit is bathed in natural light thanks to east and west exposures. The upper apartments feature beautifully preserved details, open kitchens with Fisher & Paykel refrigerators, quartz countertops, dishwashers, and built-in sound systems. The layout offers generous separation between the bedrooms, while soaring ceilings, recessed lighting, and spa-like baths elevate daily life. The triplex begins with a stunning parlor floor-complete with oversized windows, a decorative fireplace, and an open living and dining area that flows seamlessly into a chef's kitchen with European-style cabinetry and high-end appliances including a Bertazzoni range and a wine fridge. Step onto the 160-square-foot deck and enjoy your morning coffee or unwind in the bluestone backyard below. Downstairs, the sleeping quarters include a spacious primary suite with a luxurious ensuite bath, two rear bedrooms, and another full bath. A fully finished cellar, wrapped in glass, offers room for a media den, gym, or creative studio-and includes a washer/dryer for convenience.
254 Stuyvesant is located in the heart of a community where the brownstones are as rich in character as the lives that occupy them. Just moments from Lewis Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard's buzzing restaurant scene and near neighborhood favorites like Saraghina, L'Antagoniste, and Nana Ramen, this is brownstone Brooklyn at its most authentic and alive. And with the A express at Utica just minutes away, access to Manhattan and beyond is seamless. Whether you're purchasing as a 1031 exchange, looking to lease and hold, or searching for your next forever home, this is a timeless investment with modern returns. Find Your Sweet Spot.
