My husband Judd is a filmmaker and I work in the business side of Fashion. We enjoy food & cooking so you'll find our house has a well equipped kitchen. Our 12 year old son Hayden is a thoughtful sweet kid who hopes to see the world and experience other cultures, while his parents try to limit his obsession with screens. We all love the outdoors and are happier when there is a lake, ocean or mountain nearby.

Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We are seeking an exchange near a lake and/or national park this summer.
Beautifully restored brownstone filled with original details. Back patio/yard ideal for a family or those who just want to escape the city noise. We love to cook so our kitchen is well equipped. Plenty of space to relax & enjoy Brooklyn.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Bedford Stuyvesant is only a short subway (or bike) ride into the city all while offering the quiet and charm of brownstone Brooklyn. It is one of few remaining neighborhoods in Brooklyn with a feel of real community. Tree lined residential streets with beautiful historical architecture.
Family owned restaurants (Caribbean, ribs, fish), hardware, and mom and pop corner stores mix up well with up recently opened trendy coffee shops, eateries & wellness. Real diversity in food & people.
We love to explore Brooklyn, but the location makes it very easy for you to explore Manhattan as well: express A train at Nostrand is a 10 min walk, local C train is 5 min. From there a 15-20 min subway ride to downtown Manhattan.
