924 Lafayette Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11221

Description

A rare duplex garden residence that truly delivers suburban-scale living in the heart of Brooklyn.

Offering approximately 1,800 square feet of interior space and an extraordinary 625-square-foot private garden, this home pairs the volume and privacy of a brownstone with the ease of condo ownership and the financial advantage of a tax abatement through 2036. Add private parking for two cars - an indoor garage plus driveway - along with a dedicated storage room, and you get something almost unheard of in Brooklyn: space, privacy, parking, and low carrying costs in one seamless package.

Built in 2024, the residence combines efficiency with design. Wide-plank maple flooring, oversized energy-efficient windows, and multi-zoned central heating and cooling create a comfortable, contemporary atmosphere throughout.

The main level is where the home truly opens up. A dramatic wall of south-facing, floor-to-ceiling windows floods the great room with natural light and dissolves the boundary between indoors and out. The landscaped private garden becomes your backyard retreat, complete with a built-in grill, refrigerator, and generous space for dining, lounging, and entertaining under the open sky.

The kitchen is sleek and functional, featuring custom cabinetry, a Bosch range, a Fisher & Paykel French door refrigerator, and stone countertops. The bedroom on this level is bright and serene, with a wall of custom closets that light up when opened.

The main-level bathroom features radiant-heated floors, floor-to-ceiling porcelain tile, a deep soaking tub, and integrated LED lighting.

Downstairs, the flexible lower level provides complete versatility, currently configured as a 300-square-foot second living area, two additional spacious sleeping areas, a half bath with a water closet, and a washer/dryer. Whether you envision a media lounge, home office, guest suite, gym, or playroom, the layout adapts effortlessly. A staircase reconnects you directly to the garden, enhancing the home's indoor-outdoor rhythm.

Additional features include a custom mudroom with a closet just outside the entrance, a private storage room, and the rare luxury of two-car parking.

Moments from Herbert Von King Park and the beloved restaurants and cafés along Tompkins Avenue, with the J, M, and G trains nearby, the location balances neighborhood charm with accessibility.

An exceptional opportunity to own a full-scale garden residence - expansive, elegant, and intelligently positioned for long-term value.

Please note that this apartment is listed in the offering plan as a one-bedroom with one-and-a-half-bathrooms.
