1180 Union St...Where Brooklyn's History Meets Modern Living (Appointment Only)
Some homes ask you to choose between character and comfort. 1180 Union St gives you both. This limestone commands attention, 20 feet wide, stretching an impressive 43 feet deep, all on a massive 127-foot lot.
Set on one of Crown Heights' most beloved tree-lined blocks, this stunning single-family townhouse has been thoughtfully restored. The smart home, preserves the architectural soul of the original home while delivering the clean, modern finishes today's buyers are looking for. The result is something genuinely rare: a Brooklyn limestone that feels both timeless and move-in ready.
From the moment you enter, the home announces itself. Soaring ceilings, crown moldings, and a striking decorative fireplace set the tone on the parlor level but it's the kitchen that signals just how carefully this renovation was conceived. Custom cabinetry, integrated appliances, elevated light fixtures, sweeping quartz countertops bring a chef-worthy sensibility to the space, and a private deck just beyond opens onto an extra-deep backyard that's tailor-made for summer entertaining, or simply unwinding after a long day.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom is sun-drenched and serene, with generous closet space and a beautifully finished ensuite bedroom and spacious dressing room. Two additional large bedrooms offer the flexibility modern households demand — guest room, home office, nursery — while a full bathroom with designer tile work and artful detailing reminds you that no corner of this renovation was treated as an afterthought.
The garden floor extends the home's versatility considerably. A comfortable living area with direct backyard access makes it a natural fit for a media room, playroom, or private guest suite. A dedicated laundry room, spacious full bathroom and a mudroom rounds out this level, keeping the rest of the home as calm and uncluttered as it deserves to be.
Outside your front door, Crown Heights delivers. The neighborhood has quietly become one of Brooklyn's most exciting — a mix of long-rooted community, acclaimed restaurants, lively cafés, galleries, and weekend farmers markets, all anchored by the grandeur of Eastern Parkway and Prospect Park just minutes away. The 2 and 5 trains put Midtown Manhattan within easy reach, making the commute as painless as Brooklyn living gets. 1180 Union St isn't just a beautiful home — it's a foothold in one of the borough's most dynamic and enduring neighborhoods. Opportunities like this don't last.
