Property Description for 48 2nd Place
48 2nd Place is a rarely available, impeccably-renovated, 4-story single-family brownstone on one of Carroll Gardens’ most picturesque blocks. This stunning Italianate-style gem features beautifully restored original details seamlessly integrated with sophisticated modern finishes throughout, including a finished cellar and landscaped South-facing rear yard.
The Parlor floor wows with 11’8” ceilings, a gracious central staircase with mahogany railings, original pocket doors and crown moldings, a wood burning fireplace with an exquisite marble mantel, a Roll & Hill Excel Chandelier and a sleek wet bar complete with a sub-zero refrigerator.
The garden level boasts a large entry foyer leading into the inviting open kitchen and dining space with exposed brick illuminated by a retracting Nanawall folding glass wall. The gorgeous chef’s kitchen features Wood-Mode kitchen cabinetry and Schoolhouse Electric hardware, matte finish black granite countertops and professional grade kitchen appliances, including a 36" Wolf vented rangetop and convection oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, dishwasher and additional pot filler faucet.
Enjoy dining and hosting both indoors and outdoors by retracting the Nanawall folding glass wall separating the dining area and South-facing backyard with built-in sound system. The marble-paved backyard has an irrigation system, beautiful Japanese maple tree, marble planter and handsome fencing.
The Master bedroom features a decorative fireplace, enormous master closet and breathtaking 14’ 9” x 15’ 5” windowed master bathroom with an Albion extra large tub imported from England, shower stall, dual sinks and vanity (one on each side of the bathroom), Waterworks fixtures, and a statement Townsend Design Orbit Chandelier.
Upstairs you will find two spacious and bright bedrooms, a full bathroom with skylit shower, plus Miele washer/dryer and office nook. 5” select Rift and Quarter Sawn white oak floors, Marvin double-hung windows, California Closets with Baldwin hardware throughout as well as Ethernet cable pre-wired and camera intercom on all floors.
The home has Nest controlled, multi-zone heating and cooling and radiant heated floors in the garden and finished basement. The basement can be utilized as a media room/ guest room/ home gym and has a full laundry room with sink (gas-fired dryer, vents outside) and wonderful storage space.
Located only two blocks from the Carroll St F and G trains and local favorites Lucali’s, Frankie’s 457 Spuntino, Ugly Baby and Brooklyn Social.

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.
