Property Description
A Design-Forward Cаrroll Gаrdenѕ Tοwnhοuѕe with Charactеr Ѕеt οn a рicture-perfect, tree-lined block in Carroll Gardens, 26A 1st Street is a singular, beautifully renovated townhouse that pairs a distinctly Brooklyn sensibility with warm, considered design. Spanning three stories plus a finished basement, this 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers 2,880 square feet of wonderfully livable space, where original character and modern updates come together with an effortless sense of style. Throughout the home, exposed brick, wide-plank floors, oversized windows, decorative fireplaces and thoughtfully chosen finishes create interiors that feel collected rather than overly polished. The house has a relaxed, European quality-bright and airy, but with texture, color, and personality in all the right places. The garden floor is the heart of the home, with an open 16' x 30'6" living and dining room offering scale and light from both ends of the house. A fireplace and exposed brick lend warmth to the living area, while the open kitchen feels clean and contemporary with streamlined cabinetry, generous countertops, and a large center island that naturally becomes a gathering place. Just beyond, a deck creates a seamless transition outdoors to the beautifully landscaped 16' x 32'8" garden, where mature greenery and a pergola-covered dining area create an intimate urban retreat, The second floor is anchored by a serene primary suite with a large walk-in closet and an unusually spacious en-suite bath with a deep soaking tub. A second bedroom, currently used as a home office/nursery, adds flexibility. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms share an oversized laundry room and one of the home's most memorable spaces: a dramatic mosaic-tiled bathroom with a vintage clawfoot tub. Bold yet timeless, it perfectly captures the home's mix of old and new. The finished basement extends more than 42 feet; its painted brick walls and exposed beams offer tremendous flexibility as a gym, studio, workshop, playroom, media room, or generous storage area. All of this is just moments from Carroll Park and the neighborhood's beloved shops, cafés, and restaurants along Smith and Court Streets, with the F/G trains nearby and the Gowanus just beyond. Turnkey yet full of soul, 26A 1st Street offers the rare combination of scale, style, outdoor space and authentic Brooklyn character in one of Carroll Gardens' most coveted locations.
