A Dreamy 114-Year-Old Brooklyn Rental Will Make You Rethink Small Spaces
Briefly

Sarah Bryant, a beauty content creator, sought a rental home in Brooklyn's brownstone buildings for their charm. After a month of searching and narrowly missing a lease on a preferred apartment, she found a suitable two-bedroom apartment that balanced original charm and personal touch. Over the year, she enhanced her space with a taller kitchen faucet, replanted flowers on her stoop, and performed various aesthetic upgrades. She expressed satisfaction with her new home and community that helped affirm her place there.
When I got the call back from my landlord, he told me they had really sealed the deal by vouching for me.
I've replanted the spring flowers on our stoop for a second year and resigned my lease.
I've completed what I dubbed my 'must have' upgrades (a taller kitchen faucet was first on the list) and am now in the thick of aesthetic upgrades.
I showed up early to view it and hit it off with my soon-to-be new neighbors.
