285 Carroll St Floor 1, Brooklyn, NY 11231

Carroll Street is one of the most coveted addresses in Brooklyn a landmarked, tree-canopied block lined with historic brownstones that have defined Carroll Gardens' identity for generations. Homes here are rarely available. A duplex on Carroll Street that includes a large garden yard is a once-in-a-season opportunity. This two-bedroom, 1.5 bath duplex occupies the full ground and second floors of a classic Carroll Gardens brownstone. The layout is thoughtfully spread across two floors living, dining, and entertaining on the, main level; bedrooms, including ample closet space one of which is a WIC, are tucked privately on the second floor giving the home a spaciousness and quiet separation that apartments simply cannot replicate. The main level makes an immediate impression with tile and pristine hardwood floors running throughout. Traditional in its layout yet remarkably adaptable, the layout easily accommodates today's evolving lifestyles while preserving the character of this classic brownstone. The fully renovated kitchen outfitted with new stainless-steel appliances, stone countertops, generous enough for a large dinner party as a quiet family gathering. A dedicated dining area flows naturally from the kitchen, making the main level feel like a proper home rather than apartment floor plan. Both bedrooms occupy the second floor with bright and airy privacy, 12-foot ceilings amplify the light, removed from the sounds of the street and the rhythms of the living space below. The original detailed patterned hardwood floors and beautifully detailed plaster ceiling moldings have been perfectly restored to deliver the character you would expect from such a statement home. An in-unit washer/dryer, abundant kitchen pantry and storage throughout the home mean the practical demands of daily life are handled without compromise. Then there is the yard private and large, directly off the kitchen, the outdoor space at 285 Carroll Street is amongst the largest currently available in Carroll Gardens a neighborhood where outdoor space of any kind commands a premium. Not a patio, not terrace or a shared garden corner. It is a full yard: room enough for a dining table and seating, a proper garden, with space left over. For anyone who has spent time hunting Brooklyn rentals, you already know how rare this is. For those entertaining at home, hosting summers, desiring a private space for kids to play, or simply wanting to step outside into something that feels like yours this yard changes the calculus entirely. A large basement is available to provide dedicated private storage for bikes, seasonal equipment, and the overflow of a well-lived life a practical luxury that most Brooklyn rentals quietly omit. One block from Carroll Park and its beloved Saturday farmer's market. Smith and Court Streets with their acclaimed restaurants, wine bars, and boutique shops minutes in either direction. The F and G trains at Carroll Street station are steps away offering a direct, efficient commute into Manhattan. Pets upon approval ony. Please email or call Liz to schedule your private viewing.
