FREESTANDING SINGLE-FAMILY HOME WITH PRIVATE PARKING IN THE BEST CARROLL GARDENS/COBBLE HILL LOCATION. This rare gem offers 27' of width on a 33'wide x 100' deep lot with windows on all side, a large garden, and a coveted garage with a legal curb cut allowing you to park two cars, one inside and one out. Currently used as a 2-family, this unique offering is the opportunity that you have been waiting for to create your very own light-filled and private 4900 SF 1-family home with private parking, multiple outdoor spaces, at least 6 bedrooms, and a basement with windows large enough for a media room, gym, wine cellar and playroom. A turn-of-the century architectural beauty complete with a stunning stone fa ade, ornate cornice, oversized windows, stained glass, exposed beams, skylights, and a double height ceiling awaits your modern transformation and acts as the perfect canvas to create a truly one-of-a-kind home in Brooklyn's most desirable brownstone location. Situated just minutes by foot to the amazing shopping, schools, parks, and public transportation for which the neighborhood is so beloved, it is hard to imagine a better place to renovate and then live for years to come. Carroll Park, Cobble Hill Park, and Brooklyn Bridge Park are all in close proximity, as is Union Market and a host of local artisanal butcher shops, bakeries and award-winning restaurants, boutiques and public schools. A leafy green and quiet block awaits. Upon entering up a gracious stoop separated from the street by a generous front yard you will be amazed at the privacy and quiet of this special home. The garage is also easily connected to the inside of the house should you choose to walk directly from your car into the house without enduring the elements. While the home is currently used as a 2-family with an owner's duplex on the bottom two floors and a 4-bedroom rental on the top floor, we envision that the next owner transforms this into a large 1-family without the need to add an extension as the home is already built so capaciously at 4900 SF, or 27' wide x 60' deep on three floors. Enjoy townhouse autonomy with fewer stairs and larger loft-like floors throughout, including a windowed English Basement with 12' ceilings, and a main floor with double height ceilings of over 20', perfect for a skylight and a Great Room with windows on three sides. A formal entryway offers an oversized mudroom and allows for an architecturally significant staircase to anchor this floor. An ensuite bedroom plus a home office can easily be tucked into this floor, allowing for the possibility of an easily accessible first-floor guest suite for visiting relatives. Then enter into an unprecedented Great Room with double height ceilings and three exposures, perfect for a chef's kitchen, casual everyday dining area, formal dining room AND a large living room. Open up the entire back and sides of the living room and pop in an oversized skylight in the double height section of this floor for more light than you would ever get in a more traditional brownstone layout. A super wide yard with charming views of the neighboring historical architecture provide a unique vantage point and incredible privacy. The upstairs easily accommodates a large Primary suite with a private terrace, PLUS three more bedrooms, all with three-lined views and oversized closets and windows. Bring your dramatic staircase all the way to the rooftop where you will be able to enjoy an oversized roofdeck in addition to the large back garden and rare side-yards. Gardening and outdoor recreation spaces are abundant and perfectly placed. And of course, don't miss the unprecedented English basement with its 11' high ceilings, unexpected windows, full bathroom, and easy access to your private garage. The sheer scale of this floor accommodates all of your dream amenities including a gym, playroom, wine cellar, and media room, to name a few. This is a rare property with unrivaled scale, light, private outdoor space and curb appeal waiting for someone with vision to mold it into perfection. On a stunning side street near all of the desirable shops, restaurants, schools, galleries, boutiques, butchers, bakers, parks, coffee shops and public transportation situated on bustling Court and Smith Streets. This is an opportunity that will simply never come around again. Showings by appointment only.
