Property Description

Available for the first time in a generation, this three-family home in Carroll Gardens is a terrific investment opportunity. The top two floors are flooded with sun from three exposures. With 1.5 bedrooms and full baths, these apartments are beloved by tenants who don't mind trading expressway proximity for abundant light. Sun-filled and cheerful, this classic brick townhouse—featuring two floor-through units plus a duplex—has been lovingly maintained by the current owners. The garden/parlor duplex features CityQuiet windows and a split-unit A/C. With three bedrooms, two full baths, and access to the charming back garden, this is great as an owner's unit or an additional rental. The laundry room can be accessed by all tenants, or made private for the duplex. Carefully preserved details like beadboard wainscoting, skylights, hardwood floors and patterned ceilings give this building ample period charm. Updated electric, plumbing, and newer mechanicals make it a breeze to own. A unique part of Brooklyn's history, the neighborhood was shaped by Robert Moses, whose redesign of the neighborhood gives the property its unusual footprint. The location is ideal for accessing both Carroll Gardens and Red Hook, and is considered a "Walker's Paradise" by WalkScore.
