Meet 668 Lexington Avenue, a meticulously reimagined 20-foot-wide, two-family brownstone that masterfully blends warmth and modern sophistication. Built in the late 1800's, this stately home offers a total of 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 2 powder rooms, a sprawling parlor deck, and an expansive backyard oasis-all set on a tree-lined street in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant. Enter the upper duplex through dramatic half-glass entry doors and be greeted by a welcoming foyer. The parlor floor impresses with 10-foot ceilings, wide-plank natural oak floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in natural Southern light. At the rear, a stunning chef's kitchen awaits, featuring custom cabinetry, marble countertops sourced from Vermont, and a suite of top-tier appliances, including a six-burner Wolf stove, integrated Bosch refrigerator and dishwasher, a wine cooler, and a microwave drawer. Sliding glass doors open to the parlor deck, which overlooks the beautifully designed backyard-perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation. Upstairs, the south-facing primary bedroom offers a serene retreat, complete with two spacious closets and tranquil views of the garden. The en-suite bathroom is a spa-like sanctuary with marble-tiled floors, aloe green wall tiles, an elegant double vanity, glass-enclosed shower, and a skylight. This floor also features two additional bedrooms, a secondary bathroom with modern finishes, and the convenience of a washer/dryer. The garden level offers a separate two-bedroom apartment with in-unit laundry, ideal for rental income or as an in-law suite. Below, the private basement-accessible via an interior staircase from the upper duplex-boasts high ceilings, tile flooring, and a powder room, making it an excellent space for a playroom, media lounge, or home gym. Set on a vibrant block in Bedford-Stuyvesant, 668 Lexington Avenue is moments away from some of the neighborhood's best dining destinations, including Saraghina, L'Antagoniste, Passionfruit Coffee, and Peaches. Jesse Owens Playground, located just two blocks away, offers nearby outdoor recreation. For commuters, the JMZ trains, local buses, and Citi Bike stations provide easy access to Manhattan and beyond. This thoughtfully designed home delivers the perfect balance of timeless elegance and modern living in one of Brooklyn's most dynamic neighborhoods.
