Property Details
Description
First time offered in three generations. Own a piece of Brooklyn history. Built at the turn of the 19th century, this stately home, 9 1st Street, is set on a quiet, tree-lined block of pristine brick and brownstone townhouses. In estate condition with original details, the home is primed for your creative touch and expression. Currently configured with an owner's triplex apartment comprised of the garden, parlor, and basement and two one-bedroom apartments on the third and fourth floors. The home is 2,880 square feet plus the basement. Envision a classic single-family home or reconfigure with an updated owner's triplex and two high-income generating rentals. By keeping the current configuration, this uniquely historic property is an investor's delight. If you're looking to convert the home into a spectacular one- or two-family home, 9 1st St is ready for you and your family to turn into your dream home with plenty of room to grow. Bring your architect, call your contractor, and turn your dreams into reality! This lovingly maintained home is available for the first time in 70 years of family ownership and will be delivered vacant. Centrally located at the crossroads of Carroll Gardens and Gowanus, 9 1st St is close to Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and just a couple blocks from local restaurants and trendy shops on Court and Smith Streets! Just about one block from the F/G Carroll subway stop and Carroll Park.
