Description

Welcome to 761 Macon Street - a thoughtfully crafted brownstone in the heart of Bed-Stuy. Discover a rare gem in historic Bedford-Stuyvesant: a beautifully restored and reimagined townhouse that blends timeless Brooklyn charm with intentional, high-quality modern design. Unlike typical developer renovations, this home is the result of a creative collaboration between a designer/artist and a seasoned high-end builder—a labor of love where every element has been carefully curated and masterfully executed. The result is a warm, elegant, and durable space where form and function are perfectly aligned. Behind its classic 1899 façade lies a meticulously renovated four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home that retains original architectural details while offering all the comforts of contemporary living. Vaulted tin ceilings, exposed brick, a beautifully restored central staircase, and original parquet floors pay homage to its storied past, while newly installed Marvin windows, zoned A/C, restored original radiators, and high-end fixtures ensure lasting comfort and efficiency. The spacious owner's duplex features a gracious parlor with a stunning living area, a large dining space, and a newly designed chef’s kitchen equipped with quality appliances and smartly integrated storage. A walk-out private deck extends your living space outdoors, leading to a serene landscaped garden—perfect for entertaining or quiet afternoons. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite offers a tranquil retreat with a spa-like bathroom featuring a soaking tub, four-piece fixtures, and views of the garden, along with an oversized walk-in closet. Each of the additional bedrooms is generously proportioned, offering flexibility for guests, children, or creative use, and a conveniently located washer and dryer on this level makes everyday living seamless. On the garden level, you will find a bright and functional study, along with a self-contained one-bedroom apartment—ideal for rental income, guest quarters, or multi-generational living. This suite includes its own kitchen, full bath, walk-in closet, and living space. Located moments from Saratoga Park, a local favorite with a new children’s playground and daily off-leash hours for dogs, the home is surrounded by a vibrant community and a strong neighborhood spirit. Just a short distance to the J and C subway lines, residents enjoy quick access to Manhattan and downtown Brooklyn. Beloved local spots like Chez Oskar, L’Antagoniste, Trad Room, and Laziza are just a few blocks away along Malcolm X Blvd. 761 Macon Street is more than just a home—it’s a thoughtfully built sanctuary in one of Brooklyn’s most culturally rich and connected neighborhoods. Here, design integrity, historic charm, and community come together in perfect harmony. Experience Bed-Stuy living at its finest. Listing courtesy of Compass ...
