Description

An exceedingly rare opportunity to live in a modern and charming 2 bed/2 bath home on one of the most idyllic blocks in Carroll Gardens. 117 1st Place is a ?handsome ?and well-maintained 25? wide 4-unit brownstone co-op with a gorgeous landscaped front garden.

The open plan living/dining room is massive and can easily accommodate a table for 12 or more, two separate living spaces, a home office, a comfy spot by the working fireplace and a piano! The living space flows directly into the large chef?s kitchen, which features limestone countertops and a suite of stainless steel appliances.

Down the hall you will find a huge storage closet, a separate laundry closet, a well-appointed full bathroom and a lovely second bedroom. The serene master suite is well-proportioned with a more than well-proportioned walk-in closet! The oversized ensuite bath is outfitted with a large step-in spa shower, double sinks, and abundant custom cabinetry. With low monthly costs, central air and so much space to spread out, this modern home is the definition of easy living. 117 1st Place is the perfect backdrop to a dreamy Carroll Gardens lifestyle.
