Duplex Condo – Ideal for Working From Home

Not your average studiothis is a thoughtfully designed duplex with 1.5 baths, giving you two distinct levels to live, work, and recharge in style.

Upstairs, the main living space stretches over 23 feet and is lined with oversized windows that provide natural light throughout the day. The open layout feels airy and elevated, grounded by wide plank oak floors and clean, modern finishes. Whether youre hosting, relaxing, or working from home, the space adapts effortlessly. And with multi-zone climate control, you can keep it exactly how you like it year-round (because comfort is non-negotiable).

The kitchen blends warmth and minimalism with custom oak cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, and a full suite of integrated Bosch appliances. Its designed to look sharp without sacrificing function.

The full bathroom leans into a refined, spa-like feel with matte black fixtures, travertine-style ceramic tiles, terrazzo floors, a floating vanity, and a soaking tub that makes staying in feel like a plan

Downstairs, a separate lower level offers a flexible bonus space complete with its own half bath. Perfect for a home office, creative studio, or a tucked-away retreat, it adds a layer of privacy and versatility thats hard to find in studio living. Its the kind of space that evolves with your lifestyle.

Theres also an in-unit washer/dryerbecause hauling laundry through the city is not part of the vision

Set in the heart of Bushwick, youre stepping into one of Brooklyns most creatively charged neighborhoods. where street art, independent boutiques, and a constantly evolving food and nightlife scene define the vibe. When you need to get elsewhere, the J train is just a few blocks away.

This boutique building offers shared rooftop deck and its pet-friendly, too

This is a space that breaks the studio mold
