1279 Jefferson Avenue
A beautifully reimagined two-family townhouse with a gracious owner's duplex, private garden, and income-producing rental in the heart of Bushwick.

Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, 1279 Jefferson Avenue is a thoughtfully gut-renovated townhouse that perfectly balances modern comfort with timeless Brooklyn character. Rebuilt in 2015, this 19-foot-wide residence offers a rare opportunity to enjoy expansive owner's living with the benefit of a beautifully finished rental below.

The owner's duplex unfolds across the parlor and second floors, offering 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms designed with both scale and functionality in mind. The parlor level is a striking entertaining space, where exposed brick, front-facing bay windows, and a dramatic rear wall of sliding glass doors create an airy, light-filled atmosphere throughout the day.

The open-concept living and dining area flows seamlessly into a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring shaker-style cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a generous island with substantial storage and prep space. A built-in bar adds a bespoke touch, offering additional cabinetry and serving space ideal for hosting.

Just beyond, the private rear deck extends the living space outdoors, overlooking a landscaped garden finished with brick pavers, mature plantings, and a shade tree that creates a lush sense of privacy in the warmer months.
Upstairs, soaring ceilings and a skylight enhance the bright and spacious bedroom level. The primary suite easily accommodates a king-sized bed and full furnishings, complete with a refined en suite bath featuring an oversized shower and classic beveled subway tile. Two additional bedrooms, each with closets, share a full hallway bath with tub.

The garden-level 2-bedroom residence is finished with modern interiors and direct access to the yard, offering excellent rental income potential or a seamless guest / work-from-home extension.

A separately accessed finished basement provides substantial storage and convenient utility access for the owner.
Positioned between both the Wilson L, Myrtle Wyckoff M, and Halsey J trains, the home offers exceptional access to the city while maintaining the quiet charm of a residential Brooklyn block. There is also easy access to bus lines B60 to Williamsburg and B26 to Downtown Brooklyn.

1279 Jefferson Avenue is a rare offering: refined townhouse living with income, privacy, and beautifully executed design.
