Description

Welcome to 398 Ρutnam Avenue, a meticulously restored and fullу renovated Brooklyn brownstone where classic architecture meets modern luxury. This brand-new two-family residence has been thoughtfully reimagined from top to bottom, blending timeless craftsmanship with sophisticated contemporary finishes. From the striking façade to the carefully curated interiors, every detail has been executed with precision, creating a turnkey home that offers both refined living and exceptional versatility.
Inside, the parlor level sets the tone with stunning herringbone oak floors, soaring ceilings, and beautifully restored working wood-burning fireplaces that anchor the living and dining spaces with warmth and character. Exposed brick accents and elegant millwork complement the home’s original proportions, while marble window sills and custom window treatments enhance the home's polished feel throughout. At the heart of the home is a show-stopping chef’s kitchen, featuring custom cabinetry, Taj Mahal marble surfaces, a sculptural statement hood, and premium appliances, including an oversized refrigerator designed for both everyday functionality and entertaining. Solar panels have been installed to support energy efficiency, covering most of the energy consumption for the owner’s unit.
Upstairs, the private quarters offer exceptional comfort and luxury, highlighted by a truly remarkable primary suite designed as a personal retreat. The suite features a spacious walk-in dressing room lined with custom built-ins, leading to a spa-caliber en-suite bath adorned with marble finishes, dual vanities, a glass-enclosed rain shower, and a sculptural soaking tub positioned beneath sunlit windows. Additional bedrooms and baths are equally refined, with carefully selected finishes and abundant natural light throughout.
On the garden level, a fully finished two-bedroom rental apartment provides outstanding flexibility ideal for income generation, guest accommodations, or extended living, while the landscaped backyard, planted along the entire perimeter, creates a private outdoor oasis.
Located on a picturesque tree-lined block in Bedford-Stuyvesant, 398 Putnam Avenue offers the perfect balance of neighborhood charm and city convenience. Surrounded by beloved cafés, restaurants, and local favorites, and within easy reach of nearby parks and multiple transportation options, the home places you at the center of one of Brooklyn’s most vibrant and evolving communities. This is townhouse living at its finest, where historic character, modern innovation, and thoughtful design come together in one exceptional address.
