About this home
Situated on a beautiful block in the heart of Carroll Gardens, 181 President Street is an exceptional single-family townhouse offering privacy, light, and refined modern living. Designed by Workshop DA, this architecturally striking residence spans approximately 4,478 square feet within one of Brooklyn’s most established brownstone neighborhoods.
Oversized windows and a central skylight bring consistent natural light throughout the home. A private in-home elevator, and a rare curb cut leads to a multi-car garage with a Tesla charging station, accessed through a motorized, solid mahogany door. The garage comfortably accommodates two large vehicles and offers flexibility for a gym, studio, or work area.
The main living level is defined by scale and openness. A 29-foot-wide living room with 12-foot ceilings opens through floor-to-ceiling glass doors to a landscaped terrace, seamlessly extending the living space outside. The terrace is outfitted with a kitchenette, grilling station, pergola, and built-in seating, well-suited for both everyday use and entertaining.
The adjacent kitchen is sun-filled and impeccably appointed, with white and walnut cabinetry, Nublado countertops and backsplash, and a Blanco fireclay apron-front sink. Premium appliances by Miele, Wolf, and Liebherr include a five-burner gas cooktop, wall oven, microwave, warming drawer, and integrated coffeemaker, making the kitchen as functional as it is elegant.
Throughout the home, materials such as rift-sawn limed oak wide-plank flooring laid in a herringbone pattern underscore the residence’s elevated design. A striking steel staircase runs alongside custom walnut shelving designed to function as a green or accent wall, adding a strong architectural element without overpowering the space.
The third floor offers three generous, sunlit bedrooms, two bathrooms, and ample closet space. The top floor is dedicated entirely to the primary suite, providing separation and privacy. This level features a serene bedroom with views stretching to Lower Manhattan, a spacious walk-in closet, and a luxury bathroom with a freestanding oval tub, skylit shower, and custom marble vanity. Completing the floor is a home office and library with a wet bar, which can also serve as an additional bedroom, well-suited for quiet work or flexible living arrangements.
The finished basement includes a media room and wine cellar, providing ideal space for entertaining or private relaxation. Above, a roof deck offers sweeping views of the neighborhood and Lower Manhattan, creating another inviting outdoor living area.
With its rare width, private garage, elevator, and thoughtful layout, 181 President Street combines townhouse living with the privacy and character of a prime Carroll Gardens block, just moments from shops, restaurants, and parks....
