StuyHeights Brownstone with Roof Deck
Soak up the sun and skyline views from your private rooftop deck, accessed via a fully retractable skydoor-just one of the many standout features of this meticulously updated brownstone at 271 Decatur Street in Stuyvesant Heights. In a city where private outdoor space is rare, this home offers multiple opportunities to enjoy the outdoors in style.
The parlor level welcomes you with striking contrast: natural light fills the space while black wainscoting, moldings, and original restored staircase banisters add bold sophistication. Wide archways create a gracious flow from the living room to the formal dining area and into a sleek, modern kitchen outfitted with black cabinetry, geometric tilework, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances.
On the garden level, an oversized bedroom, full bath, and a versatile recreation space offers ultimate flexibility-perfect as a guest suite, home office, or additional sleeping quarters. Step outside to your private backyard retreat for al fresco entertaining or quiet morning coffee.
The second floor features two spacious bedrooms, a stylishly tiled full bath, and a bonus room ideal for a study or additional bedroom. Upstairs, the third floor mirrors the layout with three more bedrooms, another full bath, and abundant closet space throughout.
One more flight brings you to your rooftop-a true urban oasis-perfect for lounging, entertaining, or taking in panoramic Brooklyn views.
Conveniently located near the A and C trains at Utica Avenue and surrounded by beloved neighborhood favorites like Peaches and Saraghina, this home offers the perfect blend of charm, space, and connectivity.
