Spacious and stunning, this large duplex apartment in prime Crown Heights features private access to an enormous backyard—ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Flexible in layout, the apartment can be configured as 4 comfortable bedrooms with a large... living room, or 5 bedrooms with a smaller common area. The largest bedroom downstairs includes built-in Bluetooth speakers. Two full bathrooms—one on each level—each come with a tub.

The apartment gets excellent natural light from front and rear windows, and ceiling fans help keep things cool in the summer.

The chef-friendly eat-in kitchen is fully equipped with ample counter space, generous cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances including a 30-inch gas stove, dishwasher, over-the-range microwave, and full-size fridge. A washer and dryer are also included for your convenience.

The backyard includes a small shed, a shaded paved BBQ area, and a picnic table—perfect for outdoor living.

Owner pays water, heat, and hot water; all other utilities (electric, gas, internet, TV) are the tenant’s responsibility. Tenants must handle trash, snow removal, and backyard maintenance. We require a rental application, credit check ($50/applicant), proof of income, and prior references.

Small pets may be considered with pet rent and a deposit. One-year lease (renewable), flexible start date. One month’s security deposit required. No smoking of any kind allowed indoors. We are the owners listing this apartment. We’re conscientious, responsive building owners seeking equally respectful tenants.
