...With inviting ambiance and rich history, this truly special four-bedroom, four-bathroom Carroll Gardens home exudes charm and warmth from every room.Built in 1880, this gorgeous 20' wide brick townhouse was the long-time home of a religious order. Today wide-plank knotty pine floors and bold wood accents provide a contemporary, organic counterpoint to abundant original details, including dramatic archways, ceiling medallions, crown molding and ornate stone fireplace surrounds.
A planted front garden greets you as you arrive at the classic high-stoop building. Inside, the front parlor provides an abundant gathering space lit by oversized south-facing windows, while the rear parlor is used as a bedroom with en suite bathroom, both spaces warmed by large fireplaces. Guests and residents alike will gravitate to the garden level where the 19-foot by 22-foot great room provides a welcoming space for quiet relaxation or lively entertaining.
The colorful and unique eat-in kitchen is a delight to behold and to use thanks to full-size stainless steel appliances, ample built-ins and leafy garden views. Step out to the expansive 20-foot by 56-foot backyard to find a landscaped oasis awaiting al fresco dining and outdoor lounging. Situated on the tranquil third floor are three well-appointed bedrooms and a full bathroom, while the massive cellar includes a den, office, rec room space, a powder room and a large laundry area. Move right into this perfect abode, or invite your architect to adjust the flexible, historic spaces to your specific needs.
This gracious home effortlessly balances the quiet, residential lifestyle you crave, alongside the conveniences and services you require. Placed on a leafy, tree-lined street flanked by handsome low-rise brick buildings, the block offers a quintessential Brooklyn vibe, while its location in Carroll Gardens puts you at the epicenter of the borough's amazing dining, shopping, cultural and entertainment scenes. Arguably two of Brooklyn's best streets — Smith and Court — are a mere stones throw away, and nearby F and G trains put the rest of Brooklyn and Manhattan only a subway ride away.
NOTE: Roof is NEW! Finished basement gives an additional 720SF (2,880 total) and there's room to expand! Allowed usable floor area 4,000SF; Usable floor area as built 2,160SF (FAR) .
