## Property Overview

A rare penthouse offering pairing an intelligently designed two-bedroom residence with nearly 1,000 square feet of private outdoor space across a roof deck, living-room terrace and primary-bedroom balcony.

Welcome to Residence 5 at 171 Lexington Avenue, a beautifully designed penthouse condominium that seamlessly blends contemporary interiors with exceptional private outdoor living in the heart of Bedford-Stuyvesant.

Arriving via keyed elevator entry into the residence's dedicated private lobby, the home immediately establishes a sense of privacy and exclusivity. Thoughtfully composed, this two-bedroom, one-bath home is complemented by nearly 1,000 square feet of private outdoor space across three distinct settings: an expansive rooftop deck, a large terrace off the living room, and a private balcony adjoining the primary bedroom—a rare collection of outdoor spaces that allows the home to live well beyond its interiors.

The bright, open-concept living and dining area is framed by oversized windows and opens directly onto the spacious terrace, creating an effortless connection between indoors and out. Designed with both aesthetics and everyday living in mind, the kitchen features custom cabinetry, tailored storage, and a carefully selected appliance suite, including a Bertazzoni gas range and microwave, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and Bosch dishwasher. Thoughtful finishes, natural textures, and abundant light give the space a refined, elevated feel without sacrificing everyday practicality.

The primary bedroom is a serene retreat with direct access to its own private balcony, while the second bedroom offers flexibility as a home office or nursery. The bathroom is quietly luxurious, finished in crisp contemporary materials and appointed with Hansgrohe fixtures, a deep soaking tub, and rain shower, creating a distinctly spa-like atmosphere.

Additional highlights include wide-plank hardwood flooring, central heating and cooling, an in-unit washer and dryer, generous closet space, and a private storage room measuring approximately 4'6" x 9'4"—a rare and valuable convenience for city living.

The expansive private rooftop deck is truly one of the home's defining features, offering exceptional 360-degree views across the Brooklyn and Manhattan skylines. Generously scaled for multiple seating and entertaining areas, the rooftop offers endless possibilities for outdoor dining, lounging, gardening, and evenings spent taking in the city as the skyline lights up.

Built in 2015, this boutique condominium offers modern construction while placing you moments from Bedford-Stuyvesant's vibrant collection of cafés, restaurants, parks, and local boutiques. Convenient access to the A, C, and G subway lines makes commuting throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan effortless.

Whether entertaining on the rooftop with the city skyline as your backdrop, enjoying dinner on the terrace, or starting the morning with coffee on your private balcony, Residence 5 offers a lifestyle rarely found in Brooklyn.

A truly exceptional penthouse defined by privacy, natural light, refined design, and three extraordinary private outdoor spaces.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 3019681005. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
