689 MacDonough St Brooklyn, NY 11233

Set in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant, this fully gut-renovated legal two-family townhouse blends timeless Brooklyn charm with a level of finish that feels straight out of a design magazine. Wrapped in a striking brand-new brick facade, the curb appeal alone sets the tone-but it only gets better once you step inside. The owner's triplex is where this home really flexes. Think sun-drenched, open-concept living with soaring ceilings, rich herringbone hardwood floors, and a seamless flow that was clearly designed for both everyday life and "we should host more often" nights. The chef's kitchen is the centerpiece-fully loaded with Viking and Monogram appliances and anchored by an oversized island that naturally becomes the gathering spot. Slide open the bi-fold glass doors and you're instantly in indoor-outdoor mode-stepping onto a steel deck that overlooks your private backyard, ready for summer dinners, morning coffee, or that one friend who always "just stops by." Upstairs, you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a primary suite that actually feels like a retreat-floor-to-ceiling windows, a walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom with heated floors, Grohe fixtures, and a sleek bidet setup (because yes, we've reached that level). A second full bathroom, also finished to the same high standard, and a conveniently located washer/dryer complete the floor. A skylight above the stairwell keeps everything bright and airy all day long. Downstairs, the fully finished and connected cellar adds even more flexibility-with space for a home office, gym, media room, or whatever your lifestyle currently demands (or evolves into). There's also an additional bathroom, making it as functional as it is versatile. And because this is Brooklyn real estate done right-you've got income built in. The beautifully renovated one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath garden apartment features its own modern finishes, in-unit washer/dryer, and separate metering. Currently rented at $3,150/month, it's already working for you from day one. Add in central air, integrated Sonos sound, thoughtful storage throughout, and a layout that just makes sense, and you've got a home that checks every box-without trying too hard. Close to neighborhood favorites, local dining, and easy transportation, this is more than just a townhouse-it's the one people wish
