233 Union Street is a five story, five unit condop in Carroll Gardens, completed in 1890 as a pre war brownstone walk up. Its most distinctive residential feature is an upper floor home with exclusive roof rights and 360 degree views, including the Manhattan skyline and surrounding treetops.
The apartments are arranged as floor through homes, with layouts that commonly emphasize nearly 10 foot ceilings, oversized windows, south facing light, and leafy views. Pre war details recur in the form of wide plank wood floors, built in bookshelves, exposed brick, and wood burning fireplaces, while renovated kitchens typically have stainless steel appliances, granite or quartz counters, and substantial cabinetry. Flexible office or study areas and in unit laundry also appear in the apartment mix.
The self managed building has resident storage, a basement bike room, an intercom, and a shared washer/dryer, and it is pet friendly. The walk up structure and five residence scale give the building a compact residential character, while the apartments retain a combination of historic detail and updated finishes.
On a tree lined block in Carroll Gardens, 233 Union Street is two blocks from the shops and restaurants of Court and Smith Streets. The Carroll Street station, served by the F and G trains, is nearby, as are neighborhood destinations including Brooklyn Farmacy, Bar Bruno, Mazzola Bakery, and local parks.
