About this home
Welcome to 480 MacDonough Street—a gut-renovated designer two-family townhouse on one of Bed-Stuy’s most picturesque brownstone blocks. This exceptional home offers a seamless blend of contemporary luxury and timeless architectural detail.
Spanning approximately 3,088 square feet, the residence is configured as an expansive owner’s triplex—with direct access to a finished basement—positioned above a beautifully appointed garden rental.
Beyond the stately façade, the owner’s triplex unfolds across a sun-drenched parlor level featuring an open-concept layout. The gourmet kitchen is outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances, including a wine refrigerator and a built-in Miele coffee system. A wall of south-facing windows and elegant French doors leads to a generously sized deck with stairs descending to a landscaped garden—creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. This owner has truly invested in the backyard with extensive landscaping with trees to provide shade and flowers planned to bloom from spring through late summer to please the eye and calm the senses.
Original details have been thoughtfully preserved, including a marble wood-burning fireplace, a classic pier mirror, and a striking original banister, adding warmth and character throughout.
Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms each feature en-suite bathrooms. The primary suite offers a serene retreat, complete with a spa-like bath featuring a soaking tub, separate shower, and double vanity. The closets have been built out with custom California closet systems.
A staircase continues to a private roof access, offering yet another potential outdoor space.
The garden apartment includes two bedrooms, one full bathroom, an in-unit washer/dryer, and both northern and southern exposures, along with its own private outdoor space—ideal for rental income or extended living. Current owner soundproofed between the upper triplex and the guardian rental for added privacy.
A finished basement with a half bath, and additional California closet storage systems, accessible from the owner’s triplex, adds valuable flexibility for recreation, work, or storage.
This owner has gone above and beyond to upgrade this home by putting all new windows on the south side of the house, new front and garden entry doors, and renovating one of the bathrooms.
Perfectly situated on a quintessential brownstone block, 480 MacDonough is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey townhouse that delivers both beauty and versatility.
This home is a short distance along a gorgeous landmarked street of iconic brownstones from the express A/C Utica stop which allows easy access to downtown Manhattan in 20 minutes. Bedford Stuyvesant is a rapidly evolving neighborhood with world class restaurants (Saraghina, Trad Room, Peaches, L'Antagonista, Lazia, Daphnies, Chez Oskar, Bar Camilo etc), coffee shops (Milk & Pull, Rita & Maria's, Che, Corto, Passionfruit, etc) , live music (LunAtico), Von King and Saratoga parks, Tribeca Pediatrics, a vibrant community, and the classic Brooklyn brownstone architecture so many of us are seeking. It's one of the few places in this city where people actually say hello to each other on the street!...
