From the original listing · Realtor.comShowHide
Located on a gorgeous, tree-lined Carroll Gardens block, this charming single-family brick townhouse offers a rare opportunity to own an entire home in one of Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods-at a price point typically associated with a condo. Currently spanning just over 2,000 square feet, the home was originally designed as a three-bedroom and is currently configured as a spacious two-bedroom, two-bath duplex with a finished basement and additional space ideal for a home office. The home also features a great-sized private backyard, providing plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing. The property has recently undergone a number of thoughtful improvements, making it truly move-in ready. The facade has been freshly painted, the roof is brand new, the hardwood floors have been refinished, and the interior has been freshly painted throughout. The kitchen has also been refreshed with new appliances and refinished cabinetry, along with several additional upgrades throughout the home. What makes this property especially compelling is its long-term potential. Located within a favorable zoning district, the home has more than 1,600 square feet of additional buildable square footage remaining. Similar to many of the neighboring townhouses along the block, there is an opportunity to substantially expand the existing footprint and create a much larger residence. Move in and enjoy the home exactly as it is, renovate and expand over time, or begin creating your vision immediately. The flexibility is entirely yours. With similarly sized condos in the surrounding area often trading at significantly higher price points, this property presents an increasingly rare opportunity: the privacy, outdoor space, flexibility and future upside of townhouse ownership without the typical Carroll Gardens townhouse price tag. And above all, the location simply cannot be beat. Enjoy the charm, architecture and neighborhood feel that have made Carroll Gardens one of Brooklyn's most desirable places to call home, all within a short distance of the neighborhood's incredible shopping, dining, schools, parks and transportation. A true opportunity to buy into Carroll Gardens today while retaining the ability to create something substantially larger tomorrow.
