Description

53 Third Place a stellar location in coveted Prime Carroll Gardens -- This 2 family brownstone is set back from the street plus it has a lush 25 ft front garden. It is currently used as two duplexes, both with their own private entrances.

Enter to an open & airy living and dining room with beautiful wood flooring, ceiling moldings and original banister leading you to the Parlor floor. The large island is the center of this bright & sunny kitchen with plenty of cabinets, a custom built pantry and tile backsplash. Granite countertops offer ample space for either entertaining indoors or just outside to the cheerful rear patio & good sized garden with slate flooring and landscaping + full bathroom, washer and dryer. Upstairs is the master bedroom with half bath and cozy terrace, center den and an additional large second bedroom completes the lower duplex.

We have Richard Butts to thank; in 1840 he worked in Urban Planning as a surveyor for the front green gardens of this sweet town. This old world neighborhood has many well-established merchants (Caputo's Fine Foods, Espositos Pork Store, Court Pastry Shop) and many restaurants, to name a few; Lucali's Pizza (#1 in NYC), Buttermilk Channel, Ugly Baby & Court Street Grocers. Many private and public schools are in a four block radius, Hannah Senesh Community Day School, PS 58 (always check with NYC Board of Education for updates), International School of Brooklyn, The Brooklyn New School, to name a few. A three block walk to the F & G train at the Carroll Street Station. Citibike on the corner, dog run just down the block.

Style Prewar

Carroll Gardens is famous for its unique 'deep front gardens' and its rich culinary and bakery heritage. This charming neighborhood offers a small-town feel with its boutique shops and renowned bakeries along Court and Smith Streets. The real estate market is highly coveted, featuring historic brownstones that are often wider than those in neighboring areas, alongside intimate new construction condominiums that maintain the neighborhood's low-rise character.
