    What's special

    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 rear portion has been raised and cemented for easy maintenance and is ideal for outdoor furniture, gatherings, or a lounge area. Upstairs, you will find two bedrooms, an additional room, and two full bathrooms. The primary bedroom is filled with sunlight and features an en-suite bathroom with a stand-up shower. The second bedroom comfortably fits a queen-size bed and full bedroom set. The additional room features a skylight that brings in beautiful natural light throughout the day, making it perfect for a home office, nursery, or creative space. 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.
