## Property Overview

Set along one of Carroll Gardens' most charming residential blocks, 74 Second Place is a boutique pre-war condominium that captures the timeless character of brownstone Brooklyn. Built in 1922, this intimate five-story, 10-residence building is distinguished by its classic brick and limestone facade and the deep, landscaped front gardens that give Second Place its distinctive appeal. Residents enjoy a shared rooftop deck with sweeping views, along with the convenience of a well-situated, low-rise condominium setting.

The residence offers an opportunity to enjoy the space and character associated with Brooklyn living, complemented by the flexibility of condominium ownership. An alternate floor plan is also available, offering a different configuration of the unit. This layout has been implemented in several other residences within the building, providing a proven alternative for buyers seeking a different use of the space.

Carroll Gardens remains one of Brooklyn's most enduring and desirable neighborhoods, celebrated for its tree-lined streets, historic brownstones, deep front gardens, and vibrant local businesses. Just moments from Court Street and Smith Street, residents enjoy an exceptional selection of neighborhood restaurants, cafés, specialty shops, and everyday conveniences. Carroll Park and nearby subway access, including the F and G trains at Carroll Street, further enhance the appeal of this highly sought-after location.

Combining pre-war character, an intimate condominium setting, flexible floor-plan possibilities, and a coveted Carroll Gardens address, 74 Second Place presents an appealing opportunity in one of brownstone Brooklyn's most established residential neighborhoods.

The property is currently resident-occupied under a Rent Stabilized Lease for $1,729.06. Lease in place is a two year lease, in year two.

Based on condo two-bedroom sales in Carroll Gardens with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Sales data through September 2026.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
