Description

Super prime historic 19th Century Fort Greene brick townhouse located on one of the most premier blocks: Carlton Avenue between Greene and Lafayette. This is a one of a kind townhouse filled with all of the original details like crown moldings, wonderfully decorative fireplace mantels, window shutters, mahogany stairway curved bannisters, a windowed formal dining room, inlaid hardwood floors, wainscoting, and even more rare, Corinthian columns in the parlor! And The beauty of 361 is that you can move right in vs the typically available estate condition townhouse which requires a full reno. Of course you could renovate 361 but The good news is that all its systems ie heating, plumbing etc are in good working order as the house has been carefully maintained since 1982 and updated steadily over the years, ( for example the boiler and the hot water heater are only a couple of years old). One of the most stunning details in the house is that about twenty years ago, a glass solarium was added onto the existing kitchen extention, (the original extention dates back to 1900s), creating a light filled glass solarium kitchen with top of the line appliances such as a Subzero 36 “ Fridge, Viking 36 “ Stove with a center grill and green marble counters. 361 is one of a long row of pretty Italianate houses constructed in the 1850s on Carlton Ave. All are three stories high and three bays across and the doorways have stone pediments, lentils, and sills. The Italianate cornices are supported by large brackets which extend over the paneled friezes and a row of dentils. The house is a two family three story with a full basement. It has two extentions that date back to the early 1900s creating an overall size of about 3300sf. It is set up as an owners duplex with three bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths with a separate top floor loft apartment that has a full bath and kitchen. And The two extensions create the potential for an incredible amount of outdoor space, decks in addition to the actual roof. The house can be easily converted to a single family or can be used in its present configuration whereas the top floor is a WFH office or guest space. First floor: double parlor divided by Corinthian columns with a Formal dining room with exquisite paneling and windows to the garden, leading to a Stunning eat in kitchen with a door to the garden. Second floor: three bedrooms and two baths. Primary bedroom is ensuite. That bath has a clawfoot bath and shower combo. The front and middle bedrooom share the front bath with a tub/shower combo and a classic white pedestal sink. Third floor: Top floor is an open concept apartment with a kitchen and bath. It can remain a rental or work from home area or be converted to additional bedrooms. Garden: Potential Outdoor space: The main roof as well as the two extentions' roofs create The potential for a lot of additional outdoor space. These areas are outside the top floor unit and the second floor middle bedroom. Roof access is in a closet in the top floor apartment. The basement: the washer drier and mechanicals are located here. It also has the potential for additional space. Neighboring houses have added to their interior space by digging out the basement area and incorporating that into the living space.
