About this home
Three Generations. One Address. Sincerely Yours.
For more than sixty years, 1171 Putnam Avenue has been in the same family. Over the years, systems were serviced annually and small repairs handled before they grew into larger projects. The home has been carefully maintained and will be delivered vacant.
Built in 1910 on a 20-by-50-foot footprint, this semi-detached house rises three stories above a finished basement and offers roughly 4,000 square feet. The lower three levels form an owner’s triplex with four bedrooms, three baths, and a private garden for summer dinners or morning coffee. Upstairs, the top floor has been reworked from a one-and-a-half-bedroom layout into a full two-bedroom with home office with its own entrance—ready to rent or to give relatives a place of their own.
Period details include a carved parlor mantel with its original cast-iron cover, deep window casings, crown moldings, and an exposed-brick chimney breast on the top floor. The zoning allows for a maximum buildable area of approximately 7,800 square feet.
Putnam Avenue sits where Bushwick meets Bed-Stuy, with restaurants and shops in both directions. Near Broadway, Santa Panza serves wood-fired pizza and handmade pasta, with a garden out back. Along Halsey Street in Bed-Stuy, Saraghina is known for its bakery and Neapolitan pies; LunÀtico pairs live music with cocktails; and Bed-Vyne Cocktail has a patio. Peaches serves shrimp and grits and Nashville hot chicken, while Mama Fox draws a crowd for brunch. Head toward Bushwick for murals, vintage shops, coffee bars, and late-night spots. Roberta’s is a short ride away.
The J and Z at Gates Avenue and the J at Halsey Street are a few blocks away. The L and M at Myrtle-Wyckoff are also nearby.
After more than sixty years with one family, 1171 Putnam Avenue is ready for its next chapter.
