Completely renovated from top-to-bottom, this home lives like a brand-new apartment but with all of the charms that only historic Carroll Gardens can offer, including leafy green treetop and skyline views, your very own South-facing private balcony, and Smith and Court streets and PS 58 at your doorstep. This very special home offers 1230 SF of interior space and has been renovated to perfection with only the finest timeless classic materials.

Take the privately-keyed elevator up to the third floor where you will enjoy a vestibule that doubles as stroller storage/mud room, or a perfect spot for seasonal clothing or bikes. Enter into a Great Room with more than enough space for formal dining and a comfy living room. And don't miss the home office off to the side with sunny views perfect for an amazing work from home experience. A magnificent brand-new kitchen is a design moment of practicality AND beauty and includes modern custom Walnut cabinetry, unlacquered brass Watermark plumbing fixtures, a fully paneled Miele appliance suite including a vented Gas cooktop and wall oven, and sumptuous honed Calacatta Gold countertops with handmade Zellige Tile backsplash. Two South-facing and spacious bedrooms also reside on this floor, both with great closets and fantastic light. The Primary suite features a spa-like ensuite bath and also leads to a spacious balcony perfect for evening cocktails or al fresco dining. Both bathrooms in this home are a study in opulent minimalism and include the perfect juxtaposition of Carrara marble walls and floors with handmade Japanese pencil tile, custom wall-mounted walnut vanities with great storage, and more jewelry-like Watermark un-lacquered brass plumbing fixtures. The secondary bath offers a deep soaking tub while you will enjoy a glass enclosed walk-in shower in the Primary bath. This apartment has everything you could ever want; fabulously renovated interior space, private outdoor space, incredible light and views, every comfort imaginable, and perfectly situated to the best artisanal dining, amenities, public and private schools. In addition, the F/G subway is literally at your doorstep at Carroll Street, or the R train just a few blocks away. And don't miss all the great Gowanus, Boerum Hill and Cobble Hill offerings too!

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.
