TREMENDOUS VALUE @ $850 PER SQ FT! ~ MOTIVATED SELLERS16 2nd Place in Carroll Gardens offers a truly rare opportunity in New York City. Situated between large front and back gardens on one of the neighborhoods most beautiful blocks, this 34-foot, extra-wide home boasts almost 6,000 square feet of interior space rich with potential and 3,000 SF of private gardens. Wrought iron gates on 2nd Place welcome you into the lush, 33-foot front garden, where a walkway surrounded by greenery leads to the expansive home with four windows across providing lots of natural light. Upon entering the parlor level, 12' 9" ceilings adorned with original, pre-war detail illustrate the potential waiting to be uncovered.
