House of the Day: 419 Union Street
We’re loving the vibe of this four-story house at 419 Union Street in Carroll Gardens. The combo of the old-school floorboards and tasteful modern kitchen put this one in our sweet spot. The two-family property sold for $1,577,800 back in 2005 and was featured as an Open House Pick last June when it was listed…
We’re loving the vibe of this four-story house at 419 Union Street in Carroll Gardens. The combo of the old-school floorboards and tasteful modern kitchen put this one in our sweet spot. The two-family property sold for $1,577,800 back in 2005 and was featured as an Open House Pick last June when it was listed at $2,550,000. The asking price now? $2,300,000. We shall see.

Some people are looking for a quiet block so it is worth mentioning the wine bar. It has outdoor seating so I have always wondered if the noise is really bad, or if people were making a big deal out of nothing when it opened. It is likely that someone would post with that info on this site. And it is NOT insane to look for a quiet block in Brooklyn; there are plenty of them.
Here’s a tip Marlowe: Obviously you did not get my sense of humor because you do not know me, so having to inform you that I was half joking about your sensitivity to the wine bar seems only fair. Seeing that wine is basically used to promote the good life here in our great country, I did find it unusual that someone would complain about a wine bar being so close to their 2.5 million dollar house. Ironic, too. On Being useful on this here brownstoner- That is a joke,right? I could be really useful cause I know a lot about this house, but I find most of the chatter here completely useless that is why I visit.So in a way I continue that brownstoner tradition of completely useless small talk and half baked ideas and opinions. And here’s a tip the next time your kids are restless give them a little bit of a nice pinot noir from Oregon, works for me and the misses.
Union street bus hardly runs. And to some of us, school is much preferable than a bar (whether wine or whiskey). School is daytime. What is annoying and intrusive is (relative) quiet of night broken by shreeky giggles or bousterous yelling of people drinking outside or leaving a bar tanked.
I live close to corner off Smith – and although it is much quieter than couple years ago still get the obnoxious folks headed down the street to their cars especially on weekends.
Who think it is just fine to blabber at 2AM on cell phone like it was middle of day.
This is in Carroll Gardens and not Boreum Hill since the border of Carroll Gardens and the neighborhoods to the north is generally considered Degraw.
Also, tend to agree with posts that between Bond and Hoyt is not ideal as the neighborhood is not as nice as you get closer to the canal.
Here’s a tip billyboomer: Having to inform “people” that you have a sense of humor is a sure indication that you lack one. I say again, snap out of it. Try to be useful. Play nice.
House looks sweet to me. Price for the area seems on point.
Everyone here is so sensitive,! have a sense of humor people.! Someone worried about noise from a wine bar when the house sits across from a school !and in front of a bus stop !is bordering on stupid. ! Even if you have kids. ! If that is your main concern then maybe you should live in the country! Is that useful enough for you Marlowe or should I just go back to using !
“The location between Hoyt and Bond is not ideal.”
Inigo, what’s wrong with the location?
The location between Hoyt and Bond is not ideal.
I don’t think anyone will pay over two million for that spot although the house is very nice.
