Property Description for 86 3rd Place

As you enter the parlor level of this circa 1900 brownstone, you are rewarded with both an historically intact, originally detailed town home as well as one that has been updated with all the modern amenities we have come to count on. The center stair which runs throughout allows for a spacious layout with full width front and rear rooms on all floors. The parlor floor formal living room features a wood burning fireplace with ornate marble and metal surround, built in bookcases flanking both sides, pocket doors, a center entrance foyer, a front sitting area with original shutters and original, well maintained pine plank floors. The garden level has a large open renovated kitchen in the rear leading out to a south-facing mature garden with early blooming forsythia, a lilac tree, and beautiful rose bushes. There are granite counter tops, new wood floors, stainless steel appliances and a half bath on this level as well. The front room with French doors and original tin ceilings is currently being used as a den/play room but easily transforms into a formal dining room with a decorative marble mantle. There is central air conditioning on the lower two floors. The master suite on the front of the floor above the parlor has an en-suite spa bath with skylight and original shutters. The back bedroom features a marble mantle, two large closets and tin ceiling. Two split system units provide air conditioning on this level. The top floor has two additional bedrooms and center sky lit bath. There are original shutters, an additional marble mantle and plank floors on both bedroom levels. The house is well located just two blocks from the F train, on a beautiful tree line block, with all the shops and restaurants of a happening neighborhood just around the corner. Make it your own and move right in.

Carroll Gardens | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Filled with charming churches, whose ringing bells punctuate the days, together with quirky boutiques, trendy bars, Italian bakeries, and restaurants featuring a wide variety of cuisines, with an emphasis on traditional Italian cuisine, Carroll Gardens maintains a sense of Old World charm. While most of the restaurants are small and family-owned, there are Michelin-rated restaurants for those special date nights. Abundant coffee shops and bakeries ensure you are never far from a tasty pastry and your next cup of joe.

Unlike many neighborhoods, Carroll Gardens has an impressive array of grocery stores, including the popular Court Street Grocers. While Carroll Park is the main green space, located in the heart of the neighborhood, there are other parks, such as the Brooklyn Bridge Park, Cadman Plaza Park, and Van Voorhees Playground, all within easy walking distance.

Court and Smith Streets are the main commercial areas, packed with bakeries, intimate bars, unique boutiques, and small mom-and-pop Italian cafes, many with sidewalk or patio seating. Court Street has most of the older businesses that have operated for generations in the same location. Smith Street has more trendy establishments. 

If you are looking for a neighborhood that is quieter and less congested, Carroll Gardens might be a perfect fit. It is a great place to raise a family, with good schools and safe streets. It is the type of place where you will know the names of your neighbors and the owners of the shops and restaurants you frequent. It is a great walkable neighborhood for retirees, and an easy commute into the city for young professionals. The streets are shady and tree-lined, and many feature brownstones and townhouses that sport sizeable front gardens, adding to the natural charm of the neighborhood.
