Carroll Gardens Townhouse Rental, Asking $11,750 a Month, Is Downright Pretty

August 10, 2015

There are some New York City townhouses that are so extravagant they are downright intimidating. Then there are others that have been renovated, lost all their interior details, and are downright boring. This one, at 152 Luquer Street in Carroll Gardens, isn’t either. It’s simply a lovely, pretty building with just enough historic interior details and just enough modern renovation. There’s nothing to hate about it, in our modest opinion. The full townhouse is now up on the rental market, asking $11,750 a month.

The townhouse spans roughly 3,000 square feet over four stories. The living room still has its decorative fireplace, ceiling medallion, moldings and restored plank floors. We love the built-in shelving surrounding the fireplace. The eat-in kitchen is much more modern after a recent renovation. From here, there’s a door that leads out to the backyard.

There are four bedrooms in total, all of which look spacious. How pretty are those wall details? And how much do you love those large, townhouse-style windows?

More upgrades are to be found in the bathrooms—there are two-and-a-half throughout the house. This one’s got marble countertops for the sink and bathtub, as well as a green subway-tile floor.

And of course, if you’re renting the entire townhouse you get the perk of a private backyard. It’s mostly paved over with some greenery on the periphery, which makes this a pretty nice spot to throw an outdoor party. Unfortunately, the greenery you’re getting outside of the apartment is the Gowanus Canal, which leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to nature in Brooklyn. Safer to stick to the fun bars and restaurants that are just within a few block’s of this location.

Asking $3.2M, a rare pair of townhouses on Brooklyn’s quaint ‘secret’ block with tiny doors

By Michelle Cohen

New York City never runs out of surprises, and some of the best ones are hidden in plain sight. Dennett Place in Carroll Gardens is just such a hidden surprise. The fun-sized block near the Gowanus Canal is lined with equally diminutive townhouses, each with a miniature "hobbit door." Though the neighborhood has changed, the block still has the look of a quaint European alleyway and the charm of a tight-knit community–though no one seems to know what the half-pint doors are for. The homes here don't change hands often, but a pair of multi-family townhouses at 14 and 16 Dennett Place is on the market for the first time in 100 years, asking $3.2 million for both.
