Description

Welcome to 162 Crown Street where 1920s scale and charm meets 2026 sophistication and modern townhouse living!This 20-foot-wide townhouse has been completely reimagined, balancing its original architectural character with a clean, minimalist aesthetic. Situated on an exceptional 120-foot-deep lot, the property offers a level of volume and outdoor space that is seldom available in the current market.

The parlor level serves as the home’s focal point, where grand proportions meet thoughtful modern design. The floor opens into a formal living room anchored by a beautifully restored decorative fireplace, flowing naturally into a separate, dedicated dining room perfect for hosting. The rear of the parlor is occupied by a professional-grade chef’s kitchen featuring Carerra marble counters, a dual-temperature wine fridge, and high-end appliances. From here, floor-to-ceiling French glass doors provide a seamless transition to the rear terrace, creating an effortless connection for indoor-outdoor entertaining.

The top floor level is designed with precision and effortless utility, headlined by a primary suite featuring custom-built closets and a spa-inspired ensuite with a deep soaking tub & separate shower. Two additional bedrooms on this floor also feature bespoke custom closets and offer direct access to a second private terrace, maximizing natural light and fresh air throughout the level. For ultimate convenience, this floor includes a dedicated washer and dryer. The building is topped with a state-of-the-art irrigated green roof and a high-efficiency solar array, integrating sustainable technology into the home’s structural design.

The garden level is dedicated to utility and leisure and finished as a bespoke entertainment lounge complete with a custom designer bar. Comfort is paramount on this floor, which features in-floor hydronic heat for a consistent, cozy atmosphere. A thoughtfully integrated mud room provides a practical transition from the outdoors, leading directly to the expansive rear grounds. The deep 120-foot lot accommodates a secluded garden maintained by a total irrigation system and centered around a private cedar soaking tub for year-round use. The outdoor experience is elevated by a built-in BBQ and smoker, perfect for alfresco dining. Rare for the area, the property also includes a private two-car garage prepped for electric vehicle charging and equipped with hot and cold water access.

Located moments from the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Prospect Park, and the Brooklyn Museum, 4/5/2 & 3 trains as well as Franklin Avenue’s multiple restaurant and cafe life, 162 Crown Street is a sophisticated architectural statement defined by its rare dimensions and forward-thinking upgrades.
