Top 10 Brooklyn Real Estate Listings: Move-In-Ready Picks in Prime Nabes

Nearly all of this week’s top listings, most of them in prime Brooklyn neighborhoods, are ready for your immediate arrival — our No. 1 pick being the sole exception.

Carroll Gardens, Park Slope or Crown Heights — which would you choose?

10. In Gowanus on 11th Street, between 3rd and 4th avenues, we’ve got a four-story house that’s on the diminutive side — 18 feet wide and around 30 feet deep. It’s divided into two duplexes; the lower one’s got two bedrooms, the upper has a single master that takes up a whole floor. This one’s renovated, perhaps freshly; there are a few decorative brick fireplaces.

9. Here we’ve got a four-story brick townhouse on 4th Place in Carroll Gardens, with both a front garden and a rear one that measures over 1,000 square feet. At 21 feet wide, the house has an apartment on each floor, so anyone looking for an owner’s duplex or triplex will have to create it. There are original wide-plank floors and some early-20th century arches and French doors.

It’s a renovated three-story brick row house with a white-painted front, configured with an upper duplex and a garden-level apartment. There’s exposed brick, at least one marble mantel and a nicely designed backyard with raised brick flower beds and clay tiles.

7. This two-story penthouse unit in a boutique Boerum Hill condominium includes a large terrace, balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows. The layout features two bathrooms and places the master bedroom in the middle of the second story, sandwiched by the terrace and an office space that could be converted into a fourth bedroom if it weren’t for the master suite being the only point of egress.

Upstairs are three bedrooms on top, including a master with a wood-burning fireplace and a high ceiling with exposed beams. There’s also a finished English basement with a laundry room and a full bath.

3. When they were popular in the 19th century, carriage houses provided shelter for not only the horses of the estates to which they belonged, but also many carriages, hay, tack, and other supplies necessary for the horse-drawn life. Today, these sturdily built buildings can be found throughout brownstone Brooklyn. Inspired by historic carriage houses but offering modern amenities, 323 Pacific Street blends the best of the old and the new.

1. Our No. 1 listing of the week is a rare opportunity for someone not afraid to roll up their sleeves. On Marlborough Road in Prospect Park South, it’s a striking 10-bedroom stand-alone house with a wraparound porch that offers some 6,000 square feet of faded glory, in need of restoration and updating. With a huge house that means no shortage of effort, but the result would be a jaw-dropper.
