Description

145 Nelson Street has been tastefully renovated with a modern sensibility that retains its old world charm and period details. This two-family house is currently being used as a single-family. On the top floor are two bedrooms and a bath. The parlor floor consists of living room, powder room, and eat-in kitchen with pantry closet, all with ten foot ceilings, plus a terrace and stairs to the yard. On the garden floor is a third bedroom, full bath and family room with a kitchenette that serves as a wet bar and prep area for backyard barbecues. Laundry facilities are in the cellar, which is clean and dry and provides ample storage. To convert the house to a two-family, simply lock the connecting door at the foot of the stairs on the garden level and you have a rental with its own separate entrance under the stoop. Keep the income from the apartment (delivered vacant) or use the garden floor to create a comfortable single-family home. An additional 1,300 square feet of buildable space presents a rare opportunity to expand the house back or up a floor for harbor views.The entire house was gut renovated just over ten years ago and features three-zone heat (hot water system), all new plumbing and electrical systems, hardwood and bamboo floors, large closets, updated kitchen and baths. Additional features include: three original marble mantles, tin ceilings, plaster details, original woodwork and top quality lighting. The deep back garden features a tiled patio and has been landscaped with evergreens, flowering trees and perennials. The buildings brownstone and cornice have recently been restored. Nelson Street is a quiet little Carroll Gardens block. The neighborhood offers great restaurants, lots of services and easy transit -- everything we love about Brooklyn.

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.
