121 Eckford Street
Description
The Romanowski family has owned 121 Eckford Street for 100 years – a remarkably long tenure for a Brooklyn townhouse, and the longest we have seen. The family’s thoughtful stewardship of 121 Eckford Street over the past century manifests today in a Zen-like tranquility and peacefulness that you’ll experience as you move through the house. This is a place where you’ll feel drawn to explore and linger. 121 Eckford Street retains many of its original details and is graced with some wonderful mid-century woodwork, handcrafted by the family’s patriarch many years ago.
The first floor apartment opens up to a small landing, which could be expanded into a large deck, perched over a deep and lush backyard that expands to over 24 ft wide in the back. Two large mature pine trees at the back of the yard soar above the neighboring houses, providing a bucolic sense of being in the country and a green wall of privacy twelve months a year. This is a wonderfully tranquil oasis from the bustle of Brooklyn, and a perfect place to entertain and enjoy everyday life.
121 Eckford Street is approximately 2,476 sf as currently built across three floors, and could be expanded with up to 1,300 additional square feet. The partial English basement, which has a door and window that open to the backyard, provides an additional bonus of 868 sf, and would be perfect for a media room, rec room, office and many other uses.
121 Eckford Street is close to the celebrated restaurants, boutiques, music venues, and other amenities that make Greenpoint and Williamsburg such desirable places to live. McCarren Park, McGolrick Park, and Greenpoint’s waterfront parks are also just a few blocks away. For a quick commute to Manhattan and the rest of Brooklyn, the G train is around the corner on Nassau Avenue, and the L train is close by at Bedford Avenue and N 7th Street. Come see this classic Greenpoint townhouse, and make it the backdrop for your next chapter in Brooklyn. Delivered vacant.
