Property Description for 78 2nd Place, 2

OPEN HOUSES BY APPOINTMENT ONLY! Parlor Floor Living with Soaring Ceilings and a Private Garden in Prime Carroll Gardens A striking and sun-filled two-bedroom, two-bath home with private outdoor space set on the parlor level of a beautifully renovated townhouse in the heart of Carroll Gardens. Designed by Eckstrom NYC, the residence blends classic Brooklyn proportions with refined, modern finishes on one of the neighborhood’s most coveted “place” blocks. From the moment you enter, the ceiling height stops you in your tracks. Nearly 12-foot ceilings stretch overhead, creating a dramatic sense of scale that makes the home feel truly cavernous throughout. The open living and dining area unfolds beneath this volume, anchored by a stunning rear wall of south-facing windows over the deck and garden. Light pours in all day, and the connection between indoors and out feels effortless. The kitchen is equally impressive, centered around an oversized island with seating and generous storage. A 36-inch Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, gas range, and integrated dishwasher are complemented by a Bosch microwave drawer and XO hood. Caesarstone Airy Concrete countertops, custom ash cabinetry, and wide plank Dinesen Douglas flooring bring warmth and understated sophistication. The primary suite easily accommodates a king bed and offers excellent closet space along with a serene ensuite bath featuring double sinks, porcelain tile, and heated floors. A well-proportioned second bedroom works beautifully as a guest room, nursery, or home office, served by a second full bath with a tub and shower combination. Outdoors, nearly 700 square feet of private garden space feels like a true extension of the home. Bluestone pavers, a flowering tree, and dedicated planting areas create a peaceful retreat for relaxing or entertaining. Additional features include an in-unit Bosch washer and dryer, Mitsubishi multi-zone heating and cooling, trimless recessed lighting, private storage, part-time porter service, and pet-friendly policies. Nestled between Court and Clinton Streets, you are just steps from the F and G trains at Carroll Street and a short stroll to neighborhood institutions like Lucali, Clover Club, Frankies 457 Spuntino, Bar Rêve, and Untabled. Tree-lined blocks, deep front gardens, and a true neighborhood feel define this special pocket of Carroll Gardens.

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.
