Property Description for 232 President Street, 4-R
Welcome to Apartment #4R at 232 President Street-a sun-drenched, fourth-floor retreat in a beautifully maintained pre-war co-op. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined block in Carroll Gardens, this thoughtfully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home blends timeless Brooklyn charm with modern convenience and style.
From the moment you enter, classic design details capture your attention: soaring ceilings, a dramatic archway, and oversized windows that fill the home with light and frame tranquil treetop views. Restored pine floors reclaimed from a Pennsylvania farmhouse run throughout, complementing salvaged crown and picture moldings, a decorative ceiling medallion, and a striking green-tiled, wood-burning fireplace-all illuminated by Schoolhouse Electric pendant lighting.
The windowed kitchen opens to the living space and features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample Omega Maple cabinetry, including additional custom storage beneath the breakfast bar.
Down the hallway, tin ceilings, stained glass transoms with a sunrise motif, and detailed wood moldings continue the home's refined aesthetic. A full-size washer and vented gas dryer are conveniently tucked away in-unit.
The windowed bath features a classic clawfoot tub, pedestal sink, and smart glass-fronted in-wall storage.
The second bedroom offers tall windows, floor-to-ceiling storage and shelving, while the serene primary bedroom at the rear of the apartment overlooks neighboring gardens. Framing its own wood-burning fireplace with antique mantel are bespoke built-ins, creating a cozy yet sophisticated retreat.
232 President Street is a self-managed, pet-friendly co-op offering complimentary bike and basement storage. Just two blocks from the F/G trains and Carroll Park, and moments from local favorites like Lucali, Caputo's, and Smith Street's vibrant dining and boutique scene.
Apartment #4R is a rare offering-an elegant blend of historic details and thoughtful modern updates, designed for Brooklyn living at its best.

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.
