Welcome to 123 Guernsey Street, Apartment 2C, an oversized alcove studio nestled on one of Greenpoint's most picturesque tree-lined blocks, just two short blocks from the Nassau Avenue G train.
Thoughtfully designed, this spacious home offers a smart layout that naturally separates the sleeping alcove from the main living area, creating distinct spaces for relaxing, dining, working, and entertaining. The quiet, rear-facing sleeping area comfortably accommodates a queen-size bed, dresser, and desk, while two generous closets provide excellent storage.
Classic pre-war details, including beautiful hardwood floors and soaring ceilings, add warmth and character throughout. The kitchen offers abundant cabinet storage, and the windowed bathroom features clean tile work and updated fixtures. Built in 1928, this well-maintained four-story pre-war building combines timeless charm with modern conveniences, including a video intercom system and a welcoming residential atmosphere. No pets allowed.
Ideally situated just three blocks from McCarren Park and the Greenpoint waterfront, you'll enjoy easy access to some of Brooklyn's best cafés, restaurants, boutiques, and neighborhood favorites. In addition to being only two blocks from the Nassau Avenue G train, the Bedford Avenue L train is less than a 15-minute walk away, providing convenient access throughout Brooklyn and into Manhattan.

Quick Profile
Go north, not west. Greenpoint’s placement at the furthermost tip of Brooklyn makes it peak “North Brooklyn” territory. Bordered by the East River, its geographical location has long made Greenpoint integral to maritime activity, present day ferry service to Manhattan included. With Williamsburg to the south and Long Island City to the north, Greenpoint’s “hip factor” often experiences crossover traffic from these areas.
Particularly bustling on the weekend, the edge of McCarren Park at Bedford Avenue and Lorimer Street filters out into prime Greenpoint, where brunch has become a hallowed tradition for newer and longtime residents alike. Bars and restaurants such as Spritzenhaus and Five Leaves also provide close proximity to a post-dining jaunt in the park.
As the neighborhood continues to grow and develop, the old world feel of a tradition of Polish immigrants has commingled with the arrival of enterprising millennials that have become a part of the go-getting spirit of the neighborhood. Filled with small coffee shops, vintage boutiques and award-winning restaurants (as well as tailored bars like TØRST offering up specialty beers on tap), Greenpoint truly is the jewel of North Brooklyn.
