Description

Welcome to 448 Clinton Street, an exceptional 22' wide multi-family home on an extra large lot with three exposures in the heart of Carroll Gardens. This home is turn-key and ready to move right in while simultaneously collecting a generous rent roll. Enter through the grand double entry arc doors into the tiled foyer and appreciate the craftsmanship of the hand-carved wood mirror, and wainscoting which is carried up the balustrade staircase. The entry is crowned with a concentric-style ceiling medallion and antique chandelier. The owners reside in a 3,300 square feet parlor-garden-cellar triplex with gleaming hardwood floors throughout and adorned with two hand-carved marble working wood-burning fireplaces. While entertaining on the parlor level enjoy soaring 12' ceilings with a decorative plaster ceiling medallion, immaculate crown molding, restored original shutters, and magnificent corbel-flanked archway framing the elegant dining room with built-in custom cabinetry, and a stained glass-style window. Conveniently located at the rear of the building, the chef's kitchen is flooded with natural light from oversized double doors leading to the deck and charmingly landscaped backyard making it ideal for indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen features an abundance of custom cabinetry, a large island, Garland commercial range, Sub-Zero fridge, and Bosch dishwasher. Grab your Wusthof and Le Creuset and start prepping for your first dinner party on day one! A windowed powder room is located at the rear of this floor as well, for your convenience. Retire to the garden level and cozy up for the night in the massive primary bedroom suite in front of the hand-carved marble wood-burning working fireplace, tin ceilings, walk-in closet, and spa-like ensuite full bath. Down the hall, you will find the second full bathroom, two linen closets, and two well-proportioned bedrooms. The landscaped and ready to enjoy for the season back garden and deck are easily accessible here in addition, the garden level provides its own private front entry and foyer. The owner's unit has an unfinished cellar currently housing a LG washer and dryer, building mechanicals, and is used for storage. Floors two, three, and four each provide 2-bedroom apartments and are currently all tenant-occupied with the last lease ending in December of 2023. The home can be delivered vacant or possibly with tenants as some may be open to staying on with new owners, should generating immediate rental income be important to the sale. Full income and expense statements are available upon request. Carroll Gardens charm is the perfect marriage of old and new with picturesque curb appeal and a thriving, diverse small business community. Enjoy celebrated neighborhood favorites Frankies 457 Spuntino, Caputo's, Lucali, Ugly Baby, Buttermilk Channel, Court Street Grocer, Other Half Brewing Company, as well as Whole Foods.
