    What's special

    Classic detailsBosch dishwasherModern upgradesPrivate backyard gardenCustom lutron electric shadesDouble vanityLarge casement windows
    This beautiful, 20' wide brownstone underwent a complete gut renovation in 2020 and showcases a spectacular blend of classic details and modern upgrades. A professionally landscaped and irrigated front garden, complete with manicured climbing roses and a Japanese Maple greet you as you walk through the front gate of the home. The home is separated into a 3 bedroom, 2 and 2 half bathroom owner's triplex over a garden level 2 bedroom 1 bathroom rental unit. The parlor floor of the owner's triplex features soaring 10'2" ceilings and large casement windows that flood the floor with natural sunlight all day. A wood burning fireplace and two hand carved reclaimed marble fireplace mantels bookend the room. A marble tiled powder room is equipped with Kohler fixtures and a reclaimed wood door with antique brass hinges. A large chef's kitchen features a Sub-Zero and Wolf appliance package, a wine fridge, Bosch dishwasher, and custom painted cabinets with Farrow & Ball Black Blue provides the perfect space to cook and entertain family and friends! Off the kitchen is a large deck overlooking the private backyard garden, perfect when you want to put your grill skills to the test and bring the party outdoors for Summer. The garden has been outfitted with SynLawn Turf and an automated irrigation system from Pacific Lawn Sprinklers to keep your custom landscaping thriving all year round. Upstairs are 3 spacious bedrooms and 3 skylights. The primary suite faces the garden and features custom Elfa closets by the Container Store. An en-suite marble bath with a double vanity and a large skylight bathes the bathroom in sunlight throughout the day. The spacious 2nd and 3rd bedrooms both face South over the tree tops and feel as though you are in a tree house! The 2nd bathroom boasts a soaking tub and the third skylight. Head down three flights to the completely finished basement where the attention to detail and care of the house is evident. Discerning Brooklyn homeowners and those new to the lifestyle alike will appreciate how much work has been done to completely waterproof the basement, including the installation of French drains. The basement also has an additional half bathroom. The garden level unit is configured as a beautiful 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental and also has central AC and Heating and a vented WD. Additional highlights include hardwood Walnut floors throughout the home, staircase runners, a Miele W/D, recessed lighting with Lutron dimmers, custom Lutron electric shades in the living room and kitchen, Shade Store blackout blinds and window treatments upstairs, a fully automated NEST thermostat central AC and Heating system, NEST doorbell and lock and a CCV surveillance system and a Brinks security system. Set on a beautiful tree-lined block, close to all the best restaurants and shops Bed-Stuy has to offer, 405 Jefferson represents the epitome of Brooklyn brownstone living.
