## Property Overview

This exceptional townhouse located at 621 Putnam Ave is a true gem. The house is situated on a beautiful tree-lined townhouse block, across from the historic, and soon-to-be revamped, Marcus Garvey Armory. This stunning brownstone spans 3,600 square feet with many of its original details intact. The 20’ wide house is a perfect opportunity to create your dream home. Currently, the house has four bedrooms and three full bathrooms but, as seen on the alternate floor plan, the possibilities to customize the space are endless.

The garden level has been renovated featuring a spacious living/dining with an open kitchen that has direct access to the enormous backyard. It also has a renovated full bathroom on this floor. The parlor level has high ceilings, a fireplace, original parquet floors, and beautiful woodwork surrounding the windows and doorways. Handsome french doors with a transom elegantly divide the space into front and back rooms.

The top two floors have high ceilings, picture rail moldings, and a mix of herringbone and mosaic parquet floors. Oversized windows create bright, cheery rooms with decorative fireplaces, arched doorways, and picture rail moldings. The bathrooms on each floor have been remodeled.

Ideal location adjacent to Stuyvesant Heights, and close to many amazing restaurants and bars. Frog, at one end of the block, has ambient outdoor seating and a great selection of wines. In the other direction, you can find the best coal oven pizza at Saraghina and delicious comfort food at Peaches. While you’re visiting, grab a coffee and browse the selection of books and records at Black Star Vinyl. You’ll be here in a flash if you catch the express A train.

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 3016440054. 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.
