Property Description for 126 1st Place, 4

Rarely does a home of this caliber become available in the heart of Carroll Gardens. Occupying an entire floor of a 25-foot-wide brownstone, this meticulously renovated two-bedroom, two-bath condominium with a separate windowed home office combines the scale and character of a historic townhouse with the convenience of modern living, including one of Brownstone Brooklyn's rarest amenities- an elevator!
The residence has been completely reimagined with exceptional attention to detail and a timeless material palette. Features include brand new central heating and cooling, hardwood floors, high ceilings, generous closet space, a vented full-size LG washer and dryer, and a separate home office overlooking the treetops.
The elevator opens directly to a private vestibule that serves as an ideal mudroom, stroller storage, or bike area. Beyond, an expansive great room offers ample space for both formal dining and everyday living. The adjacent home office enjoys bright natural light and open views, creating an ideal work-from-home environment.
The custom kitchen is both sophisticated and highly functional, featuring walnut cabinetry, honed Calacatta Gold countertops, handmade Zellige tile backsplash, Watermark unlacquered brass fixtures, and a fully paneled Miele appliance package with a vented gas cooktop and wall oven.
Both exceptionally large bedrooms face south and provide excellent light and closet space. The primary suite includes a beautifully appointed ensuite bath and direct access to a private south-facing balcony, perfect for morning coffee or evening dining outdoors.
The bathrooms are finished with Carrara marble, handmade Japanese tile, custom walnut vanities, and Watermark brass fixtures. The secondary bath features a deep soaking tub, while the primary bath offers a glass-enclosed walk-in shower.
Additional highlights include a private 42-square-foot storage closet in the basement, exceptionally low monthly carrying costs, and common charges that include heat, water, and gas.
Perfectly positioned near the neighborhood's best restaurants, shops, and schools, the home is moments from the Carroll Street F/G station, with easy access to Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill, and Gowanus. Pet-friendly, investor-friendly, and permitting purchases for children, this is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey full-floor condominium in one of Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods.

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.
