An exceptional three-bedroom duplex with not one, but two private outdoor spaces, apartment #1 at 161 Jackson Street is tailor-made for those who crave sun-drenched interiors, flexible space, and a true outdoor oasis—all on one of Williamsburg’s most welcoming, thriving blocks.
Spanning 1,302 square feet, this bright floor-through home enjoys both north and south exposures and features a sprawling 723 square foot private garden plus an additional 157 square foot patio directly off the lower level. Upstairs, you’ll find a sleek stainless steel kitchen with a breakfast bar, a dedicated dining area, and a luminous living room perfect for everyday lounging or lively entertaining. The upstairs bedroom glistens with sunlight and enjoys a custom built walk-in closet.
Wide-plank walnut floors, central air, tiled bathrooms on both levels, and an in-unit laundry room add style and practicality throughout. Downstairs, two generously sized queen bedrooms provide privacy and versatility, each with floor to ceiling sliding doors that provide abundant natural light and access to the patio and a staircase leading to your private backyard retreat.
And that backyard? It’s the kind of space that inspires imagination. It’s rare to find outdoor space that actually lives like part of your home, and this one delivers. The flourishing and self-sufficient year-round gardens border the newly turfed yard and a raised deck, providing excellent usable outdoor space requiring minimal effort.
Completed in 2014, 161 Jackson Street is a 4 unit boutique condominium that blends Brooklyn’s industrial heritage with modern sophistication. Its classic brick façade and oversized black grille windows nod to Williamsburg’s past, blending seamlessly with surrounding architecture while inside, the finishes are thoughtfully contemporary, the design intuitive, and the lifestyle elevated.
While the home is exceptional on its own, its enviable and convenient location cannot be overlooked. Nestled between acclaimed culinary hot spots like The Meat Hook, Bonnie’s, The Four Horsemen, Five Leaves, Lilia and others, your walkable dining choices are unlimited. Equidistant to McCarren, Cooper and McGolrick Parks you have plentiful farmers’ market and dog park options. Not to mention, being three blocks from the L train at Graham Ave means you can be in Manhattan in merely 10 minutes.
Welcome to a home that gives you room to grow, room to breathe, and plenty of room to roam. This is Williamsburg living, indoors and out, at its finest. Please note: the offering plan lists the unit as a legal 1-bedroom
