Description
This sunny 4-story corner brownstone sits on one of the distinctive place blocks of Carroll Gardens, which are sought after for their charm and unusually deep front yards. The front gardens at 45 Second Place and its neighbors are home to trees, flowers and plantings which convey a sense of being in the country. With its deep front garden and generous side yard, 45 Second Place sits on a grand expanse thats over 26 feet wide and 113 feet deep. Light streams in from three sides, and there is the potential to add more windows to create your own sun-filled dream home. Currently configured as a double duplex, 45 Second Place could easily be converted back to single family use. 45 Second Place was built in the 1860s, and was home to prominent financiers and politicians in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The building has undergone many changes over the years, and is ready for a full renovation. The shops, restaurants and other amenities of Carroll Gardens are nearby, as are Carroll Park, the F/G trains, and Clinton Street, which is known to be one of the easiest places to catch a taxi in New York City.
