Property Overview

The Whitmore Residence is a restored townhouse on a quiet, tree-lined block in Brooklyn. Designed around its original 1899 proportions, the home pairs period detail with a calm, contemporary palette. From the arched front windows to the reworked garden level, every space has been considered to feel both characterful and liveable.

The Residence

The parlour floor retains its high ceilings, plaster mouldings and marble fireplace, while the kitchen and dining spaces open directly onto the garden. Three bedrooms on the upper floors offer a quieter retreat, with built-in joinery and considered finishes throughout.

Outside & Surroundings

A private rear garden with bluestone paving and raised planting beds offers a rare outdoor room in the city. The setting brings together brownstone streetscapes and easy access to cafés, parks and the subway.

Location

Brooklyn is known for its neighbourhood character and cultural energy. Residents enjoy local restaurants, independent shops and green space within walking distance, making it a compelling setting for city living with a sense of community.
