Tucked away on a peaceful, tree-lined stretch of the avenue, 1198 Jefferson brings a boutique collection of just four residences to one of the neighborhood’s most charming corridors. With classic Brooklyn character and a sense of tranquility that feels rare in the city, this address offers a quiet retreat while keeping Bushwick’s lively energy within reach. All residences are floor-through, north and south-facing homes with generous square footage and private outdoor space, most of which have storage rooms included.
Unit A is a 3-bedroom garden duplex featuring a multi-level deck and a spacious lower-level rec room. A private, landscaped entrance — unique to this unit — enhances both curb appeal and privacy. Just inside, a nook near the entryway is perfect for bike storage. Wide plank white oak floors run throughout, and large windows allow natural light to glitter through the space at all hours of the day.
Upon entry, you are greeted with a spacious, light-flooded entryway with abundant room for a bike rack or coat storage. The home flows seamlessly into a full size dining room and the first sizable bedroom. Notably, this unicorn property is a garden unit with three “true” bedrooms - a rarity in any borough. An adjacent closet houses a conveniently stackable LG washer / dryer duo. The galley kitchen is warm and inviting, with stunning cabinetry and a stainless appliance package.
Just beyond the kitchen, a Jack-and-Jill bathroom offers both public access and private access through the main bedroom. The generously-sized primary is roomy enough to accommodate a king-sized bed and walk-in closet as well as a versatile configuration of bedroom furniture. A large window opens onto the deck, providing lovely views of the garden. The home office also boasts a spectacular view and direct access of the deck. This massive two-tiered outdoor space is complemented by your very own tree, creating a serene retreat.
Descending the stairs to the lower level, you'll find the expansive rec room, complete with built-ins for entertainment and decor. The large space offers endless possibilities for storage and the custom shelving adds architectural interest. The lower level also provides access to the backyard, and a second bathroom off the main area makes this space both comfortable and versatile.
Residents of 1198 Jefferson Avenue are surrounded by local favorites, including Phil’s, Father Knows Best, Irving General, Money Cat, Fazio’s, Tikal Cafe, Caffeine Underground, Bar Cornelia, and Halsey Ale House. The property also offers convenient access to multiple subway lines and Irving Square Park.
