Prime Carroll Gardens provides an easy access to F train and 15 min commute to Manhattan, or G train . These houses are sought after for their charm, quality construction and unusually deep front and back yards. the green leafy block with landscaped front yards with designs to die for will make you coming to this block. Generous backyards would let you have your vegetable gardens and flower beds, and roses all over. The house was in one happy family for three generations. They enjoyed their meals, laughs and talks on a garden floor. It is so easy to increase the size of the house, that you won't be able to resist this temptation. The elegant Parlor floor has the real mini-mansion layout. The large bright and airy rooms with 10' high ceilings, a fire place mantel, original doors and moldings are in perfect condition. Both rooms exit into a large central foyer from where a curved wood staircase leads to the third floor. The top floor is featuring two very spacious sunny rooms with tall ceilings, a fire place mantel and original window shutters. Gorgeous rooms which could be converted into three bedrooms. A cozy wide foyer, a full bath and a storage are on the same floor. It has been used as a rental unit for some time. The original tin ceilings are thru-out the house. This traditional brownstone could be easily converted back into a single family house or a duplex with a rental unit. Create your own living style and enjoy a friendly community. A vibrant and trendy historic neighborhood is offering rows of upscale eateries, ethnic restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, yoga studios, salons and spas. A Weekend Farmer's Market takes place next to Carroll Park, the oldest park in Brooklyn. The Whole Foods store is a 5 minute walk, and Trader Joe's is only 10 minutes away.
