Description
Set in a grand, 25' wide, classic Carroll Gardens Brownstone, Unit 1 at 78 2nd Place is a massive, 2BR/2.5BA duplex condo with private backyard, offering fresh and modern design with Scandanavian sensibility. The home begins with its private entrance just under the townhouse stoop. Step through the apartment's glassed entry into the dedicated foyer and you are greeted with 22' long, wide Dinesen Douglas Fir plank floors and Snelling Studio brushed metal wall sconces. Step further into the apartment and you are struck by the unit's stunning natural color palette, designer finishes and clean architectural flow. The sun-splashed living room has gracious proportion and features a wall of south-facing, floor to ceiling windows showcasing the apartment's private backyard. Anchored by a vast kitchen island--a welcoming place to sit and connect--the kitchen is beautifully balanced with custom Shinnoki oak cabinetry and Caesarstone polished cement-style backsplash. Just off of the living room is the inviting second bedroom which also faces the backyard. The front of the home has the primary bedroom with north-facing exposure, ample closet capacity, ensuite primary bathroom and enough space for a both king-sized bed and office area. Both bedrooms feature California Closets and Pierre Frey fabric wallpaper. The apartment's two full baths are on this upper level and are elegantly appointed with Florim palazzo porcelain tile, Porcelanosa, Vigo and Hansgrohe fixture finishes. The lower level of the apartment is an enormous finished rec room with flexible layout, direct patio access and south-facing windows. On this level is a laundry room, an entire wall of storage, large closets and a half-bath. The backyard is 500+sf and fulfills all of your wishes for outdoor living: it can accommodate multiple seating areas, a large dining table and a planting area spanning the length of the back wall, perfect for exercising your gardening skills and creating your own personal green getaway. 78 2nd Place is a small, boutique luxury condo residence. Set on one of the coveted Place blocks that makes Carroll Gardens singularly special, this building has a management company in place and prime positioning to the very best dining, shopping and nightlife the neighborhood offers. Close to Court and Smith Streets, Carroll Park and the F and G trains at Carroll Street and Citi Bike Stations. Unit 1 at 78 2nd Place is the opportunity to live and grow in one of the most special spots in Brownstone Brooklyn.
