## Property Overview

Welcome to 1489 Jefferson Avenue, a uniquely HUGE 20-foot-wide, 55-foot-deep, top of the line designed and crafted townhouse set on one of Bushwick's most beautiful tree-lined blocks, framed by classic limestone facades and lush greenery. The home's striking exterior, with its bold black cornice, sets the tone for an interior defined by scale and light.

 The parlor level unfolds as an expansive open-concept living and dining experience perfect for entertaining, enhanced by soaring 9+ foot ceilings and remarkable depth that creates an effortless flow for everyday living. A built-in Sonos sound system fills the entire parlor level, primary bedroom and spa-like primary bath with seamless audio. At the rear, a showstopping kitchen anchors the space with custom oak cabinetry, Premium Bertazzoni appliances, a wine refrigerator and refined quartz countertops. Oversized Pella sliding glass doors pull in exceptional natural light and open directly to the deck and landscaped backyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Wide-plank oak floors run throughout, while multi-zone central air and heating and smart security features elevate daily comfort and ease.

 The upper level continues the sense of volume with 10-foot ceilings and abundant natural light from two skylights. The primary suite spans the full width of the home and features dual closets, including a fully built-out walk-in, and a serene spa-style bath with soaking tub beneath a skylight. Two additional bedrooms, a laundry closet, and a dedicated linen closet complete the level with both beauty and function.

 The garden level adds exceptional versatility with a two-bedroom, two-bath apartment plus a dedicated home office, ideal for rental income, guests, extended living, or a private work-from-home setup. Ring security cameras and doorbells serve both residences, adding peace of mind.

 Every element of this home reflects a focus on premium materials, intelligent layout, and lasting quality. 1489 Jefferson Avenue delivers true scale, exceptional light, flexible living, and an elevated renovation-just moments from the L and M trains at Myrtle-Wyckoff.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Sales data through September 2026.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.

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 3033860028. 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.
