Property Description for 137 Guernsey Street, 2-L
137 Guernsey is nestled among one of the most beautiful tree-populated streets of Greenpoint. Home 2L is a 1st and 2nd floor duplex (not a ground floor duplex!), giving you 2 levels of peace and separation that feels like a house, while also offering 2 floors filled with light via east-facing windows. Bathroom has recently undergone a full renovation with new marble, walk-in shower, and tile. The kitchen and open living room are located on the 2nd floor, featuring windows offering sun-rise sunlight. Stainless steel appliances, 2 large bedrooms, 3-4 closets, custom wallpaper…. this approximately 1,000 square foot home will dazzle the eye and lift the spirits.
One would only need to travel a few yards to find themselves wistfully engaged in the goings-on in McCarren Park. A few yards more will lead to the nearby “L” and “G” trains, should there be a need for an excursion. The building is 4 stories tall, with just 6 units, allowing for a small-town, neighborly feel to the space. A mixture of hardwood flooring and herringbone tile complete the interior – but the shared outdoor space, ensconced in ivy-lined brick walls, complete the living experience.

Quick Profile
Go north, not west. Greenpoint’s placement at the furthermost tip of Brooklyn makes it peak “North Brooklyn” territory. Bordered by the East River, its geographical location has long made Greenpoint integral to maritime activity, present day ferry service to Manhattan included. With Williamsburg to the south and Long Island City to the north, Greenpoint’s “hip factor” often experiences crossover traffic from these areas.
Particularly bustling on the weekend, the edge of McCarren Park at Bedford Avenue and Lorimer Street filters out into prime Greenpoint, where brunch has become a hallowed tradition for newer and longtime residents alike. Bars and restaurants such as Spritzenhaus and Five Leaves also provide close proximity to a post-dining jaunt in the park.
As the neighborhood continues to grow and develop, the old world feel of a tradition of Polish immigrants has commingled with the arrival of enterprising millennials that have become a part of the go-getting spirit of the neighborhood. Filled with small coffee shops, vintage boutiques and award-winning restaurants (as well as tailored bars like TØRST offering up specialty beers on tap), Greenpoint truly is the jewel of North Brooklyn.
