Classic Brooklyn, Thoughtfully Reimagined

Nestled among some of the most intact historic blocks in New York City, the townhomes at Chauncey and Lewis rise within a streetscape defined by enduring hallmarks of 19th-century architecture: carved masonry, cornices, and ornate iron railings. In thoughtful contrast, Chauncey and Lewis introduces a contemporary reinterpretation of the classic Brooklyn townhome while preserving the neighborhood’s existing rhythm, scale, and proportion.

Each home is envisioned as a custom-crafted private world behind its façade, with expansive four-level layouts and private outdoor spaces that carry forward the vision of townhouse living.
