Description

Light...Welcome to this elegant three family brownstone, centrally located, on the border of Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill. Currently configured as a lower duplex with two floor-through apartments above, this house has an abundance of charming details including hardwood floors, crown moldings, original doors and recessed window shutters.
On the parlor level, impressive arched double doors open on to an ornate living room with a wood-burning fireplace surrounded by a beautiful carved marble mantel. Light cast from the over-sized front window highlights the details of the decorative plaster frieze and panel molding that frames the room. A breakfast bar, facing the centrally located kitchen, provides the perfect place to enjoy this gracious entertainment floor. Behind, a beautifully proportioned dining room is flanked by French doors leading to a deck with stairs down to the garden with a striking Silver Birch tree as its centerpiece. The outdoor space feels very private with aged brick walls on two exposures. The garden level accommodates two generous bedrooms and two full bathrooms. For convenience, a powder room is located on the parlor floor. The unfinished basement, containing the house mechanicals, is accessed through this apartment.
The welcoming front hallway holds a mahogany staircase illuminated by a handsome skylight and leads upstairs to two floor-through one-bedroom apartments. Both have excellent ceiling height and their layouts are similar with full width living rooms in the front basking in golden sunlight from the west. Kitchens and bathrooms are in the middle and full bedrooms overlooking the gardens in the back.
Fully occupied by tenants, the house will be delivered vacant. Keep the current configuration by residing in the lower duplex and offsetting your expenses with rental income from the apartments above. In this scenario, consider placing the kitchen in the front of the parlor floor allowing for a beautiful, full-width living room in the back leaving ample dining space in the middle. Alternatively, transform the home into a luxurious single family or convert it to an upper triplex with a rental apartment on the garden level.
The stellar convenience of north Carroll Gardens puts you smack dab in the middle of all Court Street has to offer and not far from the F/G trains at Carroll Street. Located just a block from the public library and right around the corner from Union Market. To respect the current tenants, showings are by appointment only with at least 24-hour notice.
