Property Description

1280 Putnam Avenue is a beautifully renovated (2021) two-family townhouse located on a quiet, tree-lined street in trendy Bushwick. From the moment you walk into this sun-drenched home with soaring ceilings, you immediately feel the warmth, openness, and charm of the space. The upper duplex features two bedrooms plus an office and 2.5 bathrooms. The parlor level feels especially impressive, with oversized windows bringing in abundant natural light throughout the day. Original details blend seamlessly with modern finishes and fixtures, creating a home that is both elegant and comfortable. Off the kitchen is a private terrace - perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying outdoor dining during the summer months. The backyard is thoughtfully divided into two sections.

The lower unit offers two bedrooms, one full bathroom, a spacious kitchen, and a large island - a rare feature for a rental unit. The apartment also includes access to the basement, providing excellent storage and additional functionality. This unit presents a great opportunity to generate strong rental income. While the block itself is peaceful and residential, the neighborhood is surrounded by popular dining spots, cafes, and bars including Alex's Luncheonette, Fazio's, They Say, Double, and Bar Cornelia. Bushwick continues to grow as one of Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods, making this an exceptional opportunity for both end users and investors alike.
