Property Description for 361 Union Street, PENTHOUSE

Welcome to the Penthouse Triplex at 361 Union Street

5 Bedrooms 3.5 Bathrooms Three Levels Private Penthouse Roof

Occupying the upper three floors of 361 Union Street, the Penthouse Triplex is an expansive five-bedroom residence defined by exceptional natural light, beautifully considered interiors, and an extraordinary private roof terrace. Spanning three distinct levels, the home pairs the scale and separation of townhouse living with the elevated perspective and outdoor space of a penthouse.

The residence begins with a private entry from the parlor floor, where a dedicated staircase leads to the first of its three living levels. Here, the home opens into an expansive living, dining, and entertaining floor with high ceilings, wide-plank white oak floors, and windows at both the front and rear.

The beautifully appointed kitchen is positioned at the center of the floor and features custom warm-oak cabinetry paired with Calacatta stone distinguished by expressive charcoal-gray veining. A substantial island provides generous workspace, storage, and seating, while a premium appliance package is anchored by a Bertazzoni induction cooktop and oven, seamlessly integrated for a clean, considered finish.

The living room offers a gracious setting for everyday life, while the centrally positioned kitchen creates a natural separation from the dining room, establishing a distinct yet connected space for entertaining. A bedroom and full bathroom complete the level, offering flexibility as a guest room, home office, or additional sleeping quarters.

One flight above, the residence transitions to its primary bedroom level. The spacious primary suite occupies the front of the home and is complemented by a substantial walk-in closet and beautifully finished en-suite bath. Large-format white marble with delicate gray veining creates a serene backdrop, complemented by polished chrome fixtures, concealed shower controls, and a custom recessed niche.

A furniture-inspired natural oak double vanity brings warmth and craftsmanship to the space, with woven cane-front cabinetry, sculpted detailing, undermount sinks, and a crisp white stone countertop. Two additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and a dedicated washer and dryer complete this floor, thoughtfully separating the home's private quarters from the entertaining spaces below.

The third level introduces another dimension to the residence. A fifth bedroom with an adjacent powder room creates a flexible penthouse retreat ideal for guests, a home office, den, or private lounge. From here, the home opens directly onto an exceptional 903-square-foot private roof terrace, creating a true outdoor extension of the residence.

Stretching approximately 20 feet wide and more than 45 feet long, the terrace offers remarkable scale for a brownstone condominium and ample room to create distinct areas for outdoor dining, lounging, entertaining, and gardening. Surrounded by open sky and overlooking the surrounding Carroll Gardens roofscape, it provides an extraordinary setting for everything from quiet mornings to large-scale entertaining.

With five bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms, three substantial interior levels, and exceptional private outdoor space, the Penthouse Triplex offers a compelling alternative to townhouse living-combining generous proportions, beautifully executed finishes, and the privacy of an upper-floor residence in one of Brooklyn's most coveted brownstone neighborhoods.

Set in the heart of Carroll Gardens, 361 Union Street is surrounded by the neighborhood's signature tree-lined brownstone blocks, historic architecture, and distinctly village-like character. Just moments from the cafés, restaurants, boutiques, and everyday conveniences of Smith and Court Streets, the home is also close to beloved Carroll Park and its year-round Sunday Greenmarket. Neighborhood favorites including Frankies 457 Spuntino, Lucali, and F&F Pizzeria are all part of the surrounding dining scene. With the Carroll Street F/G station just around the corner, the location pairs the intimacy and charm of quintessential brownstone Brooklyn with exceptionally convenient access to the rest of the city.

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.
