A thoughtfully renovated two-bedroom on the third floor of a townhouse, set between Boerum Hill, Cobble Hill, Carroll Gardens, and Gowanus.

The apartment has been updated with a warm, minimal palette—clean lines, good natural light, and a sense of calm throughout. The approach is understated rather than trend-driven, with attention to materials, proportion, and everyday livability.

The layout is well-balanced, with two true bedrooms and a generous living area that comfortably accommodates both relaxing and working from home. The space feels considered and quietly refined—well-suited to a couple or small family looking for something intentional rather than purely functional.

The kitchen is fully equipped for daily use, and there is an in-unit washer/dryer.

Set on a residential stretch just off Smith Street, the apartment is moments from cafés, groceries, and neighborhood essentials, while remaining slightly removed from the immediate bustle.

Available August 2026. Longer-term leases preferred.
