This vibrant townhouse was made for a big group get-together in the heart of Brooklyn. The surrounded boulevards of red-brick buildings are home to chi-chi coffee shops, buzzing eateries and indie shops so you’ll never be short of things to do. The townhouse itself has been designed to make the most of indoor-outdoor living – a rarity in New York. In the colourful living room, doors fold back to let the outside in. The back garden has outdoor dining set up on the paved patio, and a raised wooden deck is covered with an urban-style pergola, shading the grill and sofa seating. In the evening, get a fire roaring in the fire pit and gather the group. Inside, the kitchen is more than big enough the accommodate the buzz of group breakfast time and rooms come as a mish-mash of bunk rooms and cosy doubles.

Local guide
About Bedford-Stuyvesant
Bedford-Stuyvesant, popularly known as Bed-Stuy (sounds like Bed-Sty), is located in central Brooklyn and nudges up against ultra-hip Williamsburg. It's a neighbourhood that can feel quite different from one block to the next - pristine, historic brownstones on one leafy street and a less aesthetically-pleasing view on the next. It has always had a tight-knit community feel (lots of block parties in the summer months) and in the past decade...
