Property Description for 72 Poplar Street

This impeccably renovated, 31 foot wide Brooklyn Heights carriage house condominium very well may satisfy all of your wants and needs. Complete with its own spacious private garage, this home is an extraordinary blend of drama and comfort and offers the ultimate in privacy and security.

The living areas of the home are oversized with soaring ceilings and overlook a bucolic garden through a floor to ceiling window wall. The renovation was recently completed and undertaken with an impeccable attention to detail coupled with a desire to maximize functionality. This house has tons of space to spread out, but is spread across only 3 floors, plus a roofdeck, eliminating much of the verticality of townhouse living.

Enter this home off through a beautiful private entry courtyard or from your private garage. The dramatic entry gallery is situated under an enormous central skylight. The home's great room sits at the rear of the house looking onto the garden. A sleek warm top-of-the-line kitchen is completed with stone countertops, a six-burner range and tons of cabinet space. A graciously scaled sitting and dining room is over 25 feet wide and has soaring 14' ceilings. It centers around its beautiful modern gas fireplace, and overlooks the home's private garden, one of 4 private outdoor spaces. Also on the main floor, find a glass walled home office and a powder room with custom stone sink, to make your entertaining simple and chic.

On the top floor of the house you'll enter an absolute urban oasis. This serene master bedroom was made for two. The bedroom overlooks one of the two decks on this level, and also showcases a huge walk-in closet leading at one end to a five-piece master bathroom. At the opposite end of the bedroom, find a light filled dressing room with an additional full bathroom - ideal for busy professionals. The grand hallway on this floor is flooded with light from the skylight above and lined with additional closets. It leads to two spacious sunny bedrooms, each with access to the front terrace. A full bathroom in the hallway serves these two rooms.

Up the stairs from the bedrooms is a massive finished, landscaped roof deck with plumbed gas grill. This type of outdoor space is truly unique in New York City with tons of room for lounging and dining and anything else your heart desires. Plus you'll see peeks of bridge and lower Manhattan views and open air North, South and West.

The cellar of the home is lit from a skylight at one end and provides space for any use you can imagine, perfect for gym, home theater, wine cellar or all of the above. A gracious laundry room with full sized laundry is on this level as well as a powder room.

This home is blocks from transportation and some of the city's best private schools, the Brooklyn Heights promenade, Brooklyn Bridge Park, and myriad shopping and dining. As part of the neighboring condominium building, you'll enjoy all of the amenities which include an on-site super, package room, gym, lounge, and bicycle storage.

Brooklyn Heights | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Brooklyn Heights was Manhattan’s first suburb. The Brooklyn Bridge is a neighborhood draw, offering some of the most beautiful views of the Manhattan skyline, as well as an easily walkable means of commuting into the City. Montague Street has been the main commercial street in Brooklyn Heights since the 1800s, but it is not overly commercialized. Smaller shops help maintain the small neighborhood feel of Brooklyn Heights.

The quaint cobblestoned side streets highlight the historic feel to this lovely, vibrant neighborhood that is filled with exciting and innovative restaurants, stores that have those perfect home decor items, that little black dress you love, and your favorite dry cleaner is right around the corner. Brooklyn Heights is your perfect city within the City.

There are apartments, condos, and co-ops that resulted from the conversion of pre-war residential hotels. The townhouses in Brooklyn Heights are often five stories, instead of the three stories found elsewhere. You’ll also find row houses and stunning single family mansions. Due to the three protected historic districts, opportunities for new construction are limited, and the appearance of the neighborhood seems frozen in the era when these buildings were originally constructed.

Renowned public and private schools make the neighborhood attractive to young families with school-age children. The neighborhood is generally “kid-friendly,” with parks, playgrounds, and quiet streets where kids can still play safely.
