DESCRIPTION

a bespoke carriage house reimagined for modern living 
this former 19th-century carriage house and stable, reimagined by its architect owners, has been masterfully transformed into a 4,000 sf live/work compound, an exceptional fusion of heritage, design, and luxury.  Set on a 131-foot-deep lot, the property comprises a 25-foot-wide by 50-foot deep main residence, a two-car garage, and, a 25-foot-wide custom-built guesthouse and spa offering rare scale and privacy just minutes from prospect park.  

every detail reflects material artistry: radiant heated wide-plank walnut floors, yellow leaf heart pine beams, reclaimed sequoia, exposed brick, hot-rolled steel, and venetian plaster all contribute texture and depth.  At its center, a sculptural floating staircase, crafted with mortise-and-tenon joinery, suspended between masonry and exposed original studs, anchors a soaring, light-filled interior with three wood-burning fireplaces.  

the ground-level entry welcomes you with its striking floating wood screen staircase.  Honed concrete floors lead to a rear den featuring a rustic cast-iron wood-burning stove, while large loewen windows and glass doors open seamlessly to a lush private garden.  

the open-plan second floor flows around a professional grade chef's kitchen, lined with bespoke walnut cabinetry, is coupled with a wood-fired pizza oven set beneath a pressed-tin ceiling.  The upper level features three bedrooms, and two distinctly crafted bathrooms with continuous flooring, inventive hidden slot drains, a vintage american copper tub, and full-height glass panels that create an immersive experience.  

the expansive garden, lined with reclaimed belgian block and bluestone, leads to a two-wing guesthouse retreat: one side, a sunlit studio with sliding glass doors that open directly onto the garden; the other, a serene japanese-inspired spa with hinoki wood soaking tub, steam room, open shower with slate finishes, and radiant-heated floor.  

future-forward infrastructure includes zoned hvac, on-demand hot water, new insulated roof, underground utilities, and a climate-controlled 2,000-bottle capacity wine cellar, with substantial unused far for expansion.  

ideally located near prospect park, the brooklyn museum, and franklin avenue's cultural corridor, this one-of-a kind residence is a rare opportunity to own a singular architectural masterpiece in the heart of brooklyn.
