Property Description for 181 President Street

Discover the unrivaled luxury and rare privacy of Carroll Gardens' most sophisticated newly-constructed townhouse. Designed by Workshop DA with a nod to Brooklyn's industrial heritage, 181 President Street provides modern comfort and style throughout its expansive 5356 square feet. Over-sized windows and a central skylight bathe every room with glorious natural light. All four floors are accessed via private elevator, and a multi-car garage is nestled behind a motorized solid mahogany door. The stunning 35 foot wide brick and walnut facade fits seamlessly in the landscape of this coveted neighborhood.

A grand foyer welcomes you into the home and sets the tone with gray stone floors leading to the dramatic steel staircase and your own private elevator. Around the corner is an enormous multi-car garage complete with a Tesla charging station and space to accommodate a separate home gym or an artist's studio. The warm, contemporary aesthetic of the home is enhanced by rift-sawn limed oak wide-plank flooring laid in herringbone pattern and custom millwork throughout, including decorative walnut shelving along the central staircase.

The jaw-dropping Parlor Floor features 12 foot ceilings and a 29 foot wide entertaining space centered on a gorgeous Nublado stone hearth. An exquisite glass wall can open completely to create a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. Taking Al fresco entertaining to the next level, the landscaped Outdoor Greatroom is outfitted with a kitchenette, grilling station and a pergola elegantly shading built-in seating. A sunny, eat-in chef's kitchen flows to both the living and dining rooms and is fully equipped with appliances by Miele, Wolf and Liebherr, including a five-burner gas cooktop, wall oven, microwave, warming drawer and coffeemaker. Nublado countertops and backsplash and a gorgeous Blanco fireclay apron-front sink are complimented by sleek white and walnut custom cabinetry.

On the third floor, three spacious, bright bedrooms and two beautiful bathrooms each offer ample closet space while maintaining the privacy of the Master Floor above. The Master Floor is the definition of sophistication, showcasing a magnificent bedroom with a king-sized walk-in closet and views of Lower Manhattan from the large-scale windows. The lavish Master Bathroom showcases a freestanding oval tub, a decadent, skylit shower and incredible custom marble vanity. A swank home office and library, equipped with a wet bar, is just across the corridor.

The divine roof terrace is an ideal spot to relax and experience open views of the Manhattan skyline. Bluestone floor tiles are complimented by custom horizontal ipe fencing, built-in speakers and lighting and professional landscaping. The lower level of the home features a temperature-controlled wine room and a fantastic media room.

Equipped with every modern convenience, 181 President Street was custom-crafted to provide enhanced living in the heart of one of Brooklyn's most dynamic and sought-after brownstone neighborhoods. For a private tour, please contact Tamara Abir at 646.285.1746 [email protected].

Carroll Gardens | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Filled with charming churches, whose ringing bells punctuate the days, together with quirky boutiques, trendy bars, Italian bakeries, and restaurants featuring a wide variety of cuisines, with an emphasis on traditional Italian cuisine, Carroll Gardens maintains a sense of Old World charm. While most of the restaurants are small and family-owned, there are Michelin-rated restaurants for those special date nights. Abundant coffee shops and bakeries ensure you are never far from a tasty pastry and your next cup of joe.

Unlike many neighborhoods, Carroll Gardens has an impressive array of grocery stores, including the popular Court Street Grocers. While Carroll Park is the main green space, located in the heart of the neighborhood, there are other parks, such as the Brooklyn Bridge Park, Cadman Plaza Park, and Van Voorhees Playground, all within easy walking distance.

Court and Smith Streets are the main commercial areas, packed with bakeries, intimate bars, unique boutiques, and small mom-and-pop Italian cafes, many with sidewalk or patio seating. Court Street has most of the older businesses that have operated for generations in the same location. Smith Street has more trendy establishments. 

If you are looking for a neighborhood that is quieter and less congested, Carroll Gardens might be a perfect fit. It is a great place to raise a family, with good schools and safe streets. It is the type of place where you will know the names of your neighbors and the owners of the shops and restaurants you frequent. It is a great walkable neighborhood for retirees, and an easy commute into the city for young professionals. The streets are shady and tree-lined, and many feature brownstones and townhouses that sport sizeable front gardens, adding to the natural charm of the neighborhood.
