"The picturesque exterior of this Brooklyn Heights wood frame yields to an evocative interior with wide planked floorboards, plaster walls stained with remnants of wall colors of the past, and Federal-era mantels."
"The artistic new owners removed later flooring to reveal the original floorboards, according to a December 2005 article in The World of Interiors, and scraped off layers of wallpaper and paint, leaving the stained plaster in place."
"The entry is particularly striking, with ochre stained walls, wide floorboards, and the original stairs with patches of white paint left on the risers."
"The finishes were stripped back in the kitchen with exposed rafters and stone walls combined with open shelving and stainless steel appliances."
25 Cranberry Street is a historic dwelling in Brooklyn Heights, characterized by its shingle-covered exterior and twin dormers.

Notable features include an entry with ochre stained walls, three wood-burning fireplaces, and a kitchen with exposed rafters and stone walls.
