July Rental
A four bedroom - 2.5 bathroom - three-story Crown Heights townhouse on a pretty stretch of Bergen Street in the historic district of Brownstone Brooklyn.

A traditional Brooklyn stoop leads to the entry door of the parlor floor with the kitchen, dining, and living room. The upper 2 floors each have 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. Each room has a Queen size or larger bed and are comfortably furnished including desks, and storage for clothes. Each bedroom and the living area have its own window A/C unit.

Washer/dryer, high-speed WiFi, dishwasher, linens, towels, and all utilities included. The internet is fast and consistent for remote work. We keep the house quiet, and dark for a sound night of sleep in a big city.

The backyard is fenced, with outdoor seating and dining, and space inside the gate for bikes or a stroller. The kitchen is fully equipped - everything you’d need to cook.

The house was built around the turn of the century and still holds a lot of its original character: woodwork, tall doors, shutters - alongside a modernized kitchen and updated bathrooms. It’s lived-in and cared for, with bookshelves on every floor, warm lighting, plants, and a hammock on the top floor. Easy to come back to at the end of the day.

We think of it as a haven to move through the city from, or just stay in. The neighborhood is genuinely residential, which we mean as a good thing. Brower Park and a playground are around the corner. The Brooklyn Children’s Museum Public Library’s Crown Heights branch is one block away. The Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Brooklyn Museum, and Prospect Park are a short distance away, and it’s a great area to run. There’s a large grocery store five blocks. Street parking is available with an alternate-side schedule. Trains: A/C, 2/3, B65, B43, and the LIRR.

We’re easy to reach by text and happy to answer anything as you figure out if this is the right fit.

About This Lister

We’re a couple working in architecture, design, and technology. We’ve lived in the neighborhood for 15 years and on this block since 2019, long enough to know every creak in the floor.

We’ve shared our home with people over the years - quietly, and it’s always gone well. The people who tend to feel at home here usually have creative professions or backgrounds, appreciate older buildings, and don’t need a lot of hand-holding.

We take our shoes off at the door, don’t have pets, and keep the house the way we’d want to find it. We expect the same, and it’s never been a problem.

We hire a scheduled service for trash, pest control, and housekeeping.
