From the original listing · Realtor.comShowHide
Expertly gut-renovated and comprehensively reimagined by a premier developer and acclaimed interior designer, this one-of-a-kind one-bedroom home was completely reconfigured to maximize space, functionality, and flow. The original layout was transformed, with the kitchen, living area, and bedroom relocated to create an exceptionally considered home where custom craftsmanship and intelligent design inform every inch. Nearly every element of the home has been considered and custom-built, with extensive bespoke millwork creating a warm, cohesive interior while incorporating an extraordinary amount of storage and functionality. Natural wood, cane detailing, richly veined stone, and warm brass accents establish a refined material palette throughout. At the entry, custom millwork incorporates a built-in bench, concealed shoe storage, and aged-brass hooks, creating a dedicated and highly functional drop zone. The living room is wrapped in custom millwork incorporating bookcases, open shelving, a wine rack, and a cleverly concealed queen-size Murphy bed with integrated sofa, allowing the space to transition seamlessly for overnight guests. A custom Super White marble dining banquette upholstered in buffalo leather provides additional storage beneath the seating, while the bespoke dining table is topped in the same stone used in the kitchen, visually connecting the two spaces. The beautifully executed kitchen pairs custom cabinetry with cane detailing and Super White marble countertops and backsplash. High-end appliances include an integrated Bosch refrigerator, Miele wall oven and fully integrated Miele dishwasher, along with an integrated PITT three-burner gas cooktop. In the bedroom, the home's custom approach continues with an integrated Queen-size bed and headboard, custom built-in closets, a built-in desk/vanity, open shelving, and cane detailing. Articulating bedside sconces are incorporated directly into the millwork. The result is a serene sleeping space with substantial storage and functionality built into every detail. The bathroom is equally considered, featuring radiant heated floors, a custom Calacatta Viole marble vanity and sink, burnished-brass fixtures, a frameless glass shower, built-in shower niche, and a wall-mounted Duravit toilet with SensoWash. Additional features include MAFI wood flooring throughout, Mitsubishi multi-zone heating and cooling, custom window millwork, integrated LED lighting, Lutron lighting controls, an August smart lock, Aiphone video intercom and a concealed in-unit Bosch stacked washer and dryer. The result is a rare one-bedroom that feels more like a bespoke residence than a conventional apartment. Beautifully designed, exceptionally efficient, and unlike anything else on the market. Set on a picturesque, tree-lined block in the heart of Carroll Gardens, 537 Clinton Street is part of an intimate collection of three adjoining four-story co-ops, with just two residences per floor. This pet-friendly building offers dedicated basement storage and a warm, neighborly feel, moments from Carroll Park, the shops and restaurants of Smith and Court Streets, and the Carroll Street F/G trains. Please note some of the photos are virtually staged.
