Property Description for 47 Wolcott Street

Welcome to 47 Wolcott Street, a beautifully renovated townhouse offering 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms across multiple levels of functional, well-designed living space. Situated on a quiet, tree-lined block in the heart of Red Hook, this legal two-family home is currently used as a single-family residence. Thoughtful upgrades, premium materials, and flexible layout options—including the ability to convert the garden level into a separate rental unit—make this home both comfortable and investment-friendly. The garden level features a private entrance, spacious bedroom, full bathroom, laundry area, and a large recreation room/den that opens directly to the backyard. Ideal for guests, a home office, or potential rental income, this level offers great versatility. Outside, a newly built patio is finished with Porcelanosa tiles, Ipe wood decking, and a skylight that brings natural light to the level below. The backyard includes mature landscaping with perennial plantings and custom containers, along with automated lighting and a gas line for a future outdoor kitchen. On the main floor, a spacious living and dining area features two fireplaces—a classic wood-burning fireplace and a built-in wood-fired Italian pizza oven. A powder room is conveniently located just off the main space. The kitchen includes Miele appliances, a Combi Steam oven and downward draft exhaust, as well as reclaimed wood accents and Italian custom cabinetry. Marvin Modern windows and a full Nanawall glass door open to a private rear deck finished with Ipe wood and a walkable skylight, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The second floor offers three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, both with skylights. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, additional built-in storage, and an en-suite bathroom with a double vanity, soaking tub, standing shower, and skylight. The second bedroom features exposed brick and floor-to-ceiling windows, while the third is well-suited as a nursery, guest room, or office. Automated blinds from The Shade Store and smart lighting are installed throughout. At the top of the home, a bright landing with a skylight leads to a private roof deck that spans the full width of the building. There’s also space to add a wet bar or built-in storage just before stepping outside. The roof deck offers open views and plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing—an ideal elevated escape in one of Brooklyn’s most vibrant waterfront neighborhoods.

Red Hook | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Filled with quaint charm and picturesque views, Red Hook is a haven for those seeking a laid-back vibe. The community has weathered many storms both figurative and literal since its settlement in 1836 by Dutch colonists. From being one of the most bustling freight ports in the world in the 1920s to being named one of the worst neighborhoods in America for its crack epidemic in the 1990s, Red Hook has gone through many evolutions to become the dynamic neighborhood it is today. 

Rich with creativity, the area is home to many artists specializing in an array of crafts, ranging from furniture design to glassblowing to woodworking. With many art galleries and moderately priced studios and lofts, the neighborhood is teeming with talent attracted by the energy and live/work space concept. 

The overall sense of being among a close-knit community is further spurred on by annual events such as the Red Hook Waterfront Arts Festival, as well as a reading series co-hosted by BookCourt once a month at neighborhood staple Sunny’s Bar. The changing shape and infrastructure of Red Hook was thrown for a loop in 2012, with the damaging effects of Hurricane Sandy that left many buildings and businesses in need of repair during resulting closures. 

Since its post-Sandy revitalization, the neighborhood has continued to attract many visitors to its unique and eclectic ambience, with ferries from Pier 11 in Manhattan to IKEA that operate daily.
