Description

577 Carlton AvenueBuilt at the turn of the century, this gracious and landmarked 4 story brick townhouse is a rare example of Neo-Gothic architecture. Boasting 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, much of the homes original splendor is completely intact, including exquisite wood fretwork, hardwood floors, stained glass, carved mantels, picture rails, pocket doors and box shutters. Enter on the parlor floor into a grand foyer complete with stunning mantel. The lovely living room is located at the front of the home where you can cozy up to the wood-burning fireplace while the library, surrounded by built-in bookcases, overlooks the garden. Downstairs, your renovated chefs kitchen features a center island, pantry and custom cabinets galore. A pair of windows showcases the extra deep landscaped garden easily accessed through a convenient mudroom. Bathed in sunlight during the day, this private oasis is perfect for al fresco entertaining. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining room where the walls have been whimsically decorated with gold leaf polka dots. A large family room and powder room complete this level.Up the stairs from the parlor are two floors of bedrooms, five in total, three of which sprawl spaciously across the full width of the house. The master bedroom is decorated with rare Piero Fornasetti wallpaper and connects to the spacious bath with two separate dressing areas each with its own sink and marble counter. On the top level you will find two generous bedrooms and one additional smaller room for a simply perfect home office or nursery.While currently used as a single family home, this is a legal two and could be easily converted to a triplex over garden apartment for additional income. 577 Carlton Avenue is a short distance to the 2, 3, B and Q trains lines, BAM, the Barclays Center and Prospect Park, around the corner from Vanderbilt Avenue and all that Prospect Heights, Park Slope and Fort Greene have to offer.
