782 Madison Street

Overview of 782 Madison Street

782 Madison Street is a condo building in Bedford Stuyvesant that underwent comprehensive renovation in 2011 with stylish updates completed in 2023. The building offers a mix of two and three bedroom units, including a notable duplex unit and several floor through apartments. Units feature high ceilings, hardwood floors, and updated kitchens equipped with quartz countertops, subway tile backsplashes, and modern appliances including gas ranges vented to the outside. Many apartments showcase distinctive arched windows that overlook the surrounding neighborhood.

A standout feature of 782 Madison Street is its exceptionally large shared backyard, described as "possibly the largest backyard in Bedford Stuyvesant." The outdoor space is notably underutilized, often providing residents with what feels like their own private garden area. The building is pet friendly and includes practical amenities such as basement laundry facilities, deeded storage spaces, and hot water baseboard heating with individual floor controls in duplex units.

The building's location places residents directly across from P.O. Renaldo Segrado Playground, with easy access to additional green spaces including the recently renovated Jesse Owens Playground with its built in pool, Saratoga Park, and the nearby Citizens for a Better Community Garden. The neighborhood offers a vibrant dining scene with local establishments like Toad Style, Chez Alex, Marian's Brooklyn, and L'Antagoniste, while J/Z/A/C train access is just a 5 to 10 minute walk away.

Residents benefit from a J-51 tax abatement running through mid 2030, with monthly maintenance fees ranging from approximately $814 to $889 that include most utilities except cooking gas and electricity. The building currently has temporary assessments in effect through 2025, reflecting ongoing building improvements and maintenance.
