Spanning three stories plus a finished cellar, this stunning residence offers five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two powder rooms, a finished basement, a spacious rear deck overlooking the private garden, and a roof deck. The owner’s duplex welcomes you with herringbone white oak floors and abundant northern and southern light, creating a warm and inviting space. The living room is anchored by a decorative fireplace—a rare and timeless feature. The chef’s kitchen is a showpiece, boasting marble countertops, custom cabinetry, an oversized sink, and top-of-the-line appliances: a six-burner Wolf gas range with pot filler, integrated Bosch refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher. The Glass sliding door off the kitchen opens onto a south-facing deck, ideal for entertaining or enjoying a quiet morning overlooking the landscaped garden. Upstairs, you will find three bright bedrooms and two full baths. The top floor—illuminated by two skylights—is flooded with natural light throughout the day. The rear / south facing primary suite offers a serene retreat with a wall of closets and a luxurious en-suite bath featuring a double vanity, and glass-enclosed rain shower. An additional bedroom, office, and full bath, washer dryer round out the top floor features. The garden level is configured as a separate, thoughtfully designed two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment with direct backyard access—perfect for rental income or hosting guests and extended family. Located on one of Bedford-Stuyvesant’s most beloved blocks, you are surrounded by acclaimed eateries such as Daphne’s, Dolores, Saraghina, Lers Lers, and Corto. Commuting is effortless with nearby A/C trains, the B52 bus to downtown Brooklyn, and dedicated bike lanes connecting you to Clinton Hill, Fort Greene, and beyond. With central air conditioning, custom millwork, and timeless design details throughout, 488A Quincy Street is a turnkey residence that delivers on every front—ready to be lived in and loved for years to come.
