543 Madison St APT 4F, Brooklyn, NY 11221 · 4F
Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn · 3 BR · $3,750/mo · active as of 9/27/2026
This 1931 building at 543 Madison Street has a complete city record with no heat complaints, 311 noise or rodent reports, and no bedbug filings in the past twelve months, though there are 5 open HPD violations, none in the most hazardous Class C category, which typically means lower-priority conditions like minor maintenance issues you can ask the landlord to detail. At $3,750 per month, the asking rent sits at the 25th percentile for the neighborhood (median $4,800 across 14 comparable listings), making it competitively priced, though you should confirm what's included since pet policy, laundry access, and square footage weren't disclosed in the listing. The photos appear genuine with no signs of digital manipulation or virtual staging, but wide-angle lenses were used in multiple rooms, so spaces may feel smaller in person than they look online, bring a tape measure to the viewing. The building has 8 residential units across 4 floors and was built nearly a century ago, so at the viewing check water pressure, radiator function, and window seals given the age. The unit is managed through ABE HERMAN 543 MADISON LLC with Nooklyn NYC LLC handling the listing; rent stabilization status wasn't retrieved, so if that matters to you, ask the agent directly or request the building's registration details.

Lighting is primarily natural in rooms with windows; interior spaces rely on ceiling fixtures. No evidence of digital over-brightening, virtual staging, or AI manipulation. Furniture/items visible are real placement, not synthetic staging.
