Nestled on one of Crown Heights’ most picturesque brownstone blocks, 1220 Dean Street is a meticulously restored four-story brownstone that seamlessly blends timeless Brooklyn architecture with refined modern living. Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully reimagined by an interior designer, showcasing custom millwork, handcrafted wood details, and curated finishes that bring warmth and sophistication throughout.

The parlor level welcomes you with soaring ceilings and a sun-filled open layout anchored by a truly show-stopping custom kitchen. Wrapped in warm natural oak cabinetry with integrated paneling, this chef’s kitchen features dramatic full-height stone slab backsplashes and countertops that create a seamless, sculptural effect. A professional-grade gas cooktop sits beneath a stone-wrapped vent hood, complemented by a striking brass pot filler. Additional highlights include a double wall oven, under-cabinet task lighting, and sleek minimalist hardware. An expansive picture window and glass door open to the rear terrace, flooding the space with natural light and establishing a perfect indoor–outdoor connection. A built-in banquette with display cabinetry completes the space, offering an inviting corner for casual dining or morning coffee.

The second floor is devoted to a luxurious primary suite, offering a true retreat with a spa-inspired bathroom, custom dressing room, and a serene home office overlooking the tree-lined street. Upstairs, the third floor features three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, leading to a finished roof deck with sweeping neighborhood views—an ideal setting for relaxing or hosting friends.

The cellar is an unexpected gem, designed with exposed brick arches and a custom wet bar that create the perfect backdrop for a wine cellar, recreation room, or creative studio. The garden level is a fully finished, separately designed unit—ideal for rental income or use as an in-law or guest suite. Out back, the private garden evokes the charm of an English courtyard, offering a tranquil escape in the heart of Brooklyn.

Perfectly positioned on Dean Street between New York and Brooklyn Avenues, this home is moments from Brower Park, the Brooklyn Children’s Museum, and the vibrant restaurant and café scene along Franklin and Nostrand Avenues. Local favorites include Barboncino, Chavela’s, Colina Cuervo, and Ursula. The A/C and 3 subway lines are all nearby, making for an easy commute to Manhattan and beyond.

With top-of-the-line craftsmanship, designer finishes, and an unbeatable location steeped in classic Brooklyn character, 1220 Dean Street is a must-see for those seeking something truly special. Private tours are now available—be among the first to experience this remarkable home.
