About This Home
Welcome to 231 Macon Street, a custom-crafted two-family townhouse on a tree-lined block in Bedford-Stuyvesant, distinguished by its red brick facade, elegant black cornice, and landscaped, irrigated front yard. Beyond a vestibule with mosaic terrazzo floors and striking double doors, the parlor level stretches 55 feet deep with wide-plank white oak floors, lime-washed walls, and designer lighting.
An expansive South-facing living area flows into a chef's kitchen anchored by a Calacatta Borghini marble island with inset outlets, custom cabinetry with gunmetal pulls, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, Wolf cooktop with inset handles, wall oven with speed oven above, concealed appliance garage, pot filler, and sculptural lime-wash hood surround. A large pantry provides abundant storage, while beyond the kitchen a dedicated dining area sits beside a custom bar with wine fridge. A powder room and coat closet complete the floor, with a glass door opening to a deck and a lush irrigated garden.
A custom rounded bleached oak staircase ascends to the full-floor primary suite with a king-sized bedroom, private terrace, custom dressing room, and a spa-like bath designed as a calming retreat, with radiant heated Taj Mahal quartzite floors and hand-applied Tadelakt walls that extend seamlessly into the walk-in shower with rain head, cove lighting, and built-in storage. A separate soaking tub, towel warmer, and private water closet with bidet complete the sanctuary. This level also offers a nursery or home office, a linen closet, and a laundry room with washer/dryer, countertop storage, and slop sink.
Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, two full baths with radiant heated floors and gunmetal fixtures, and another terrace. The garden floor offers a full-floor one-bedroom apartment with a large open concept kitchen and enormous bedroom.
The finished basement includes a large recreation room, half bath, and flexible space ideal for media, fitness, or playroom use.
Throughout the home, Marvin windows, oversized baseboards, elegant hardware, wall sconces, and two-inch recessed lighting create a warm, inviting atmosphere. With southern exposure, central air, multi-zoned sound, and designer finishes, 231 Macon Street offers scale, light, and contemporary luxury with a refined sense of calm woven throughout.
