Listing Notes

In the heart of Williamsburg, on a classic tree-lined block, Residence 1 at 128 S 1st Street offers something increasingly rare: a thoughtfully designed home in a prime Brooklyn location that still feels within reach. Fully renovated, the home reflects a clean, modern design sensibility grounded in quality finishes and smart functionality. Elegant dark hardwood floors run throughout, while the open kitchen is outfitted with brand-new stainless steel appliances, custom wood cabinetry, and a layout that connects effortlessly to a spacious living and dining area-ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying the rhythm of daily life. Triple exposures to the north, south, and east create an immediate sense of comfort and ease, giving the home a calm, welcoming atmosphere from the moment you arrive. At nearly 1, 000 square feet, the layout is both generous and efficient. A true king-size primary bedroom offers comfort and scale rarely found at this price point, complete with double closets for excellent storage. The second bedroom is equally well-proportioned-perfect as a guest room, home office, or nursery without compromise. The bathroom is elegantly finished with refined tilework, delivering a crisp, modern aesthetic that feels both timeless and elevated. Additional conveniences-including central air and an in-unit washer/dryer-are seamlessly integrated, ensuring that daily living is as comfortable as it is effortless. What truly distinguishes this home, however, is its positioning. In a neighborhood defined by creativity, culture, and constant momentum, opportunities to own a well-executed two-bedroom residence at this level have become increasingly limited. Ideally situated equidistant between the Bedford L train and Domino Park, you're not settling to be in Williamsburg-you're stepping into it fully, with a home that balances design, livability, and value. 128 S 1st Street is a boutique, four-residence condominium set within a 25-foot-wide authentic Brooklyn building-intimate in scale, professionally managed, and thoughtfully reimagined from the ground up. With exceptionally low carrying costs and a compelling price point, it stands apart from both resale inventory and larger new developments. For those who have been waiting for the right entry into the Williamsburg market, Residence 1 presents a clear and compelling opportunity: to own a refined, well-proportioned home in one of Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods-at a price point that remains attainable. Complete offering terms are in an Offering Plan available from Sponsor. File No. CD25-0339. Equal Housing Opportunity.
