Property Description for 492 Henry Street, 5-J

This extra-large, PENTHOUSE one bedroom duplex features a PRIVATE 700+ SQUARE FOOT ROOF DECK with sweeping views of Manhattan, the New York Harbor and Downtown Brooklyn. Located in a wonderful elevator condo building, the apartment combines space and proportion with style and function and is an amazing refuge from the hustle and bustle of the city below. The first floor offers an open living plan, framed by three large windows and the sliding doors to the deck that show off the Manhattan and Brooklyn skylines. The kitchen comes complete with modern appliances, including a dishwasher, stainless steel stove and fridge, solid-wood cabinetry, granite counters and a breakfast bar. The living room has nice proportions and offers additional space for a dining area. On the main level youll also find a renovated half bath, a large coat closet, and the washer/dryer. On the upper level, the wide-open floor plan offers tons of flexibility, including additional space for a home office and sitting area. One could even carve out enough space for a small separate room. Two large sliding doors and a large west-facing window bathe the second floor in light all day long and offer the same stunning views as the floor below. The renovated marble bath features an extra deep whirlpool tub, and the enormous walk-in closet provides terrific storage. Building features include a full-time super, an exercise room, bike storage, a common courtyard, a common roof deck with the same breathtaking views, and low monthlies which include heat and hot water. Pet friendly too! Just outside the door are neighborhood favorites like Brooklyn Farmacy, Mazzolas Bakery, and Lucali. Conveniences surround you with a supermarket, dry cleaners, wine shop, & deli all on the same block. Close to Carroll Park, Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Columbia Waterfront, shopping and dining on Smith and Court Streets, and easily accessed by the F & G trains at Carroll Street. The location is ideal!

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.
