At the crossroads of Boerum Hill and Cobble Hill, awaits a perfectly designed two-bedroom duplex. Entertain, enjoy your favorite novel, or meditate in your tranquil private yard.

The terrace, directly off the kitchen and living room is a charming touch to a contemporary floorplan, flawlessly designed for entertaining.

A true second bedroom that easily fits a queen bed is made even more desirable by custom built in cabinets affording all the storage one's city dwelling heart desires. A wall of windows with custom blinds invites you to make this the perfect at home office and guest room. A full bath and gracious entry hall with even more custom storage on the upper level creates the perfect two-bedroom dynamic.

What makes this duplex so special? Other than three outdoor spaces, turnkey condition, the perfect location directly off Smith Street, and the possibility of free common charges? A sprawling primary bedroom and bath on a windowed level with entrance to a private patio. A custom-made library ladder slides along your outdoor patio that allows one to enjoy verdant plants from the multi-levelled garden. Waterproof outdoor storage is the ideal place to keep patio furniture, toys, and gardening tools. Residence 1 at 91 Douglass Street with its terrace, private yard, and a primary bedroom patio offers one the perfect new home. An in-residence washer and dryer are permitted. A laundry room, and a private storage unit for residence 1 are both conveniently located one level from the entrance. The tax abatement ended in 2022.

Boerum Hill | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Boerum Hill is a tiny, quiet, primarily residential neighborhood in Brooklyn. There are broad tree-lined streets that are filled with elegant three and four-story brownstones and townhouses, mostly built between 1840 and 1870. There is a definite family vibe to the neighborhood, but young professionals are moving in, and with them are coming trendy bars to cater to their desire for some measure of nightlife, without having to linger in Manhattan. These new bars and restaurants are being sandwiched in amongst existing shops on both Atlantic Avenue and Smith Street, which are the main commercial areas in Boerum Hill. 

Boerum Hill offers a convenient location that is still able to maintain its small-neighborhood feel. Shopkeepers value their customers and remember their regulars. It continues to do what it was designed to do, namely provide small-town living in the very shadow of the big city. Boerum Hill is an easy commute to other parts of the city, making it easy to come home every day to the peace and tranquility of Boerum Hill while commuting to a job anywhere in the city.

The neighborhood is quite walkable and you can take the time to catch up with your neighbors while visiting on their stoops. Shopping on Atlantic Avenue is stress-free with no high pressure. You can meet with friends at any of the many coffee shops and while away pleasant hours in conversation. The dining scene on Smith Street is similarly laid-back. Don’t expect that there will be quite as much to see or do as there is in Manhattan, but there are a decent number of interesting bars and restaurants providing a measure of nightlife. The trade-off is worth it, as Boerum Hill provides a quiet, peaceful place to live and raise a family.
