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 a brownstone building in Brooklyn. After a month of searching, she discovered a two-bedroom apartment on StreetEasy, forming a connection with her future neighbors, which helped her secure the lease. Over the past year, she has personalized the space while maintaining its charm, including replanting flowers and completing significant upgrades. Her focus on both aesthetics and function reflects her vision for her living space.
Sarah had been searching for a new apartment full-time for a month and finally thought she had found the one for her - she even got acquainted with what she thought would be her future coffee shop and bar.
Fast forward to now and I've replanted the spring flowers on our stoop for a second year and resigned my lease.
I showed up early to view it and hit it off with my soon-to-be new neighbors. When I got the call back from my landlord, he told me they had really sealed the deal by vouching for me.
What she appreciated about the space was that there was a balance between original charm and an opportunity to personalize it.
