Property Details
Description
This three family, 25' wide townhouse on the corner of Clinton and Luquer Streets in Carroll Gardens provides grand scale living, with over 1200 sf on each floor. It has been in the same family for many years and is currently being used as rental apartments. The garden level is a massive two bedroom, two bath lit from three exposures. The second floor has the ceiling height owners crave and is a very large one bedroom plus den with natural light warming every room. The top floor rooms seem to go on and on, with an open living/dining area, spacious bedroom, two dens and light that cannot be manufactured.. Its exposures give a person pause.
If your needs are different, imagine how much fun it would be to redesign this massive house into a private residence. The size gives you a vast canvas to create a truly exquisite home and the yard has the potential for parking. There are great schools in the area and easy access to roads leading in and out of the city. Just 4 stops from Manhattan, a short ride to BAM and Barclays Center and a minute to some of the best restaurants in Brooklyn.
Anyone who follows real estate and is interested in the Carroll Gardens area, knows that a 25 footer rarely comes to market, so don't wait to contact Virginia Dobles at or to schedule an appointment.
