Property Description for 188 Nelson Street, 2
Step into 188 Nelson Street, nestled in the heart of charming Carroll Gardens. Meticulously refurbished from top to bottom, this residence boasts a thoughtful design aimed at optimizing both functionality and natural light. Positioned on the serene Nelson Street, shaded by trees, this classic brownstone is infused with bespoke touches, seamlessly blending modern aesthetics with timeless architecture.
Upon entry, bask in the streaming, captivating light that permeates the expansive parlor floor through sizable front and back windows. The open-plan layout generously accommodates spacious living and dining areas. The kitchen, a haven for culinary enthusiasts, features Wolf appliances, including a six-burner induction cooktop with a wall oven below, a built-in microwave drawer, a Bosch dishwasher, and a Sub-Zero fridge and freezer. Quartz counters crown custom cabinetry, complemented by a striking "Moonface" Carrera marble backsplash. A half bath is also on the parlor level.
Step through the back door onto the sizable deck. The deck's stairs lead to an exceptionally deep backyard, expertly landscaped with a paved dining area, lush flowering plants and shrubs, ambient lighting, an irrigation system, and low-maintenance turf-providing ample space for relaxation, entertainment, and play.
Ascend from the parlor floor to the upper two levels, guided by the radiant light from the expansive skylight gracing the entire length of the custom floating staircase. The second-floor primary bedroom offers a sunlit sanctuary with a custom walk-in closet and a spa-like en suite bath, overlooking the peaceful backyard. The adjacent front bedroom, bathed in natural light, features a connected home office/play space.
The top floor reveals two additional bedrooms, a full bath, a Samsung washer and dryer, and a second home office/flex space. The back bedroom, fit for a king-sized bed, mirrors the primary's garden views through floor-to-ceiling windows. The front bedroom, currently utilized as a den, showcases a charming decorative brick fireplace. Each bedroom boasts a generously sized closet, and the flex space, enhanced by another inviting skylight, serves as an excellent office, gym area, or playroom. The bathroom boasts a deep soaking tub, a Rain shower, and modern finishes.
Noteworthy design elements grace the entire residence, including wall-integrated LED lighting, exposed brick, ductless AC units, and elegant white oak plank flooring.
Positioned midway between Court and Smith Streets, with easy access to the F/G trains at Smith and 9th Street, and in close proximity to St. Mary's park and playground, this remarkable Carroll Gardens abode offers an unparalleled location surrounded by excellent shopping and dining options in every direction.

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.
