Description

Brand-New Floor-Through Duplex Penthouse with Massive Private Rooftop, Manhattan Views & Extremely Low Taxes

Winter Sponsor Incentive: For a limited time, the sponsor will cover 12 months of common charges on contracts signed by January 31st - delivering exceptional value and immediate savings.

Welcome to 256 Putnam Avenue, Penthouse - a brand-new, floor-through duplex penthouse offering nearly 1,700 square feet of elevated indoor-outdoor living in an intimate boutique four-unit condominium, perfectly positioned where Bedford-Stuyvesant meets Clinton Hill.

This exceptional residence features approximately 800 square feet of refined interior living space, crowned by a spectacular 900+ square foot private rooftop with open Manhattan skyline views - an extraordinarily rare offering in Brooklyn condo living.

Located just three flights up, this duplex penthouse delivers exceptional privacy, light, and open-sky exposure, with no neighbors above and only one residence per floor.

Inside, oversized windows flood the home with natural light, highlighting wide-plank hardwood floors and a gracious open layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The residence also includes an in-unit washer/dryer hookup, offering seamless modern convenience.

The chef's kitchen is both striking and functional, featuring custom wood cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, and a full suite of premium GE Café appliances.

The spa-inspired bathroom provides a luxurious retreat, complete with a deep soaking tub and a built-in heating function, creating a warm, indulgent, spa-like experience year-round.

Both bedrooms are generously sized, south-facing, and located at the rear of the building, offering abundant sunlight and a serene, pin-drop-quiet setting - ideal for restful nights, remote work, or guests.

The crown jewel of this home is the expansive private rooftop terrace - over 900 square feet of open-air living designed for unforgettable entertaining, gardening, yoga, or peaceful mornings and sunset evenings under the stars. With sweeping skyline views, it is a true urban sanctuary above Brooklyn's tree-lined streets.

Additional highlights include:

Brand-new floor-through duplex penthouse

Boutique four-unit condominium

Very low monthly taxes and carrying costs
