The house makes family living easy with open concept living areas and a well-thought-out interior that’s practical, without precious ornaments to worry about. The Greenpoint neighborhood has a thriving dining scene with everything from Polish specialties, farm-to-table options, seafood, trendy bakeries and craft breweries.

Toddlers through to teenagers will enjoy this space – there’s room to play or to escape parents if necessary. The basement is perfect for family movie nights with its projector and the backyard has room for ball games. Nearby McGolrick park has a playground and open spaces to run, climb and enjoy the outdoors and McCarren has a swimming pool and skate park. The Greenpoint Public Library and the Leonard Library often have storytelling sessions and other activities for kids.

About the Location

The residence is in a calm street in the vibrant neighborhood of Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NYC, between the parks of McCarren and McGolrick. It’s close to the arty and buzzy scene of galleries, studios, bars, restaurants, bakeries and Polish delis. Walk to McCarren Park with sports fields, a swimming pool and playground or along the waterfront promenade by the East River for scenic views of the Manhattan skyline. Getting to Manhattan is easy via the nearby Williamsburg Bridge and Pulaski Bridge stations or 30 mins by bike.

On the street level you’ll find the living room with sofas, a large fully equipped kitchen (microwave, hob, oven, fridge/ freezer) and dining table with stools and a highchair. On the 1st floor is the primary kingsize bedroom and a kids’ bedroom with a high sleeper. On the 2nd floor is another kids’ bedroom with a crib, twin / single and a toddler bed. Also on this floor is an office with a double sofa bed. The basement has a projector for movie nights and the private backyard has trees and Astro turf.

Style Notes

Artsy Brooklyn chic. This minimalist but cozy and comfortable family home is beautifully appointed and was fully renovated in 2021 by its French owners. Original fireplaces, high ceilings and wooden floors hint at its past with contemporary, white furniture and walls. There are smart speakers on all the floors and the kitchen has a lovely wood worktop and white gloss cabinets. We love the art pieces on the walls, the spacious rooms and the enjoyable back yard for parents to hang out and for kids to play.

Green space, skyline views and kids events

Bordered by Williamsburg to the southwest, this northernmost of Brooklyn’s neighborhoods is not as hipster-led but just as family-friendly. Transmitter and McCarren Parks provide green space and skyline views; Polish restaurants provide the energy to keep going and free kids events abound at all points of the calendar.
