About This Property
Open the Door to Forever.
Some homes check boxes. Others change the direction life goes. 297 Bainbridge Street does both.
Fully rebuilt in 2025, this beautifully reimagined Bedford-Stuyvesant row house delivers something increasingly rare in Brooklyn: the privacy of a single-unit home at a price point often reserved for condos. No neighbors above or below. No shared outdoor space. Just a thoughtfully designed home with room to spread out, entertain, and grow into.
Originally built in 1899 and thoughtfully expanded beyond its original footprint, the home now offers approximately 2,453 square feet inclusive of a finished lower level boasting three floors of livable and usable space. Set back nearly 28 feet from the sidewalk - a depth almost unheard of on a Bed-Stuy block - it carries the charm of a historic Brooklyn streetscape behind a front yard and classic stoop, while living with a distinctly modern point of view.
And then there's the outdoor space - not one, not two, but four private outdoor areas totaling approximately 1,350 square feet. A landscaped rear yard designed for entertaining. A welcoming front garden. A private balcony off the primary suite. And above it all, a green roof terrace that adds one more place to gather, unwind, or host unforgettable summer nights. In a city where outdoor space is coveted, this home gives you options at every level.
Inside, the design is crisp, warm, and deeply thoughtful. The floating staircase is the architectural centerpiece - thick wood treads suspended within a sleek steel frame, wrapped by vertical wood slats that bring texture and continuity throughout the home. It's the kind of detail that makes a first impression and keeps rewarding you over time.
The kitchen was built for people who actually live, cook, and entertain. A dramatic waterfall island seats four to five comfortably and anchors the room with confidence. Premium appliances include double wall ovens, an induction cooktop, French-door refrigerator, beverage cooler, dishwasher, microwave drawer, and a dedicated wet bar that turns everyday dinners into unforgettable moments.
The bathrooms are where the renovation truly shines. Heated floors underfoot, striking tilework on the walls, illuminated anti-fog mirrors, elegant vanities, and intelligent smart toilets with bidet features, heated seats, and touchless technology - the kind of finishes you usually find a borough away and a price tier up. Throughout the home, wood flooring, zoned HVAC, integrated smart systems, video intercoms, and a dedicated laundry room ensure the beauty is matched by function.
The finished lower level adds the flexibility every modern buyer wants - media room, gym, office, guest suite, playroom, or a combination of all four. It's space that adapts as life changes.
Set in Stuyvesant Heights, one of Bedford-Stuyvesant's most loved enclaves, you're surrounded by landmark blocks and tree-lined streets that built the case for this neighborhood in the first place. Local favorites like Peaches, Chez Oskar, Trad Room, and Badaboom are nearby, while the A and C trains are just blocks away for an easy commute.
For first-time buyers, downsizers, or anyone who wants the freedom of a private home without the burden of endless projects, 297 Bainbridge Street hits the sweet spot: a modern Brooklyn house with history at its back, design at its center, and your next chapter waiting at the door.
Find your sweet spot.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
The kitchen is an eat-in design with a waterfall island that seats four to five comfortably, and the primary suite has its own private balcony. Those two rooms set the day's rhythm: cooking and hosting on one floor, and a quieter retreat upstairs.
Outdoor space is spread across the house. The rear yard is landscaped for entertaining, there's a front garden, the primary suite opens to its own balcony, and a green roof terrace sits above it all. Together they total about 1,350 square feet. High ceilings add volume to the rooms and give you more room to arrange furniture, though they don't make a floor plan work on their own.
The 2,453 square feet includes a finished lower level, which can serve as a media room, gym, office, guest suite or playroom. A dedicated laundry room and zoned HVAC are also part of the house, along with integrated smart systems and video intercoms.
The house is set nearly 28 feet back from the sidewalk, behind a front yard and a classic stoop.
Brevoort Playground is about 3 minutes away on foot, and Jackie Robinson Park Playground is about 4. The Ralph Av station on the C is about 8 minutes on foot, and Associated Supermarket is about 6 minutes away.
