Property Description for 319 Carroll Street
Designed by a renowned Brooklyn architect, 319 Carroll Street is a stunning townhouse in triple-mint condition with 4 stories, a dramatic primary suite, 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a perfectly appointed chef's kitchen and a massive 60' landscaped back garden in beautiful Carroll Gardens.
Let's start from the front: this gorgeous house has a red brick facade with a jewel-box addition at the top and custom-made railings and planter box at street level. Up the steps to an open-plan living room with a contemporary wood-burning fireplace, then a Chef's kitchen featuring a huge island with a single gray stone slab and custom cabinetry with a wealth of functional storage on both sides of the island.
There's a Liebherr fridge, Bosch oven and cooktop with a Miele hood and Blanco water fixtures. A discreet half bath is next, followed by a spacious dining area, an entire wall of glass and access down elegant steps to the landscaped garden.
Ascend the Belgian oak and metal staircase to the next level featuring two amply sized bedrooms (one is currently set up as a stylish garden-facing office) and a family bathroom with a poured concrete floor. A washer dryer and large utility closet are discretely placed in the corridor. Ascend again to a primary suite featuring a breathtaking wall of windows in the bedroom affording a spectacular view of the downtown Brooklyn skyline, including the brand-new Brooklyn Tower. Over the rooftops, there's a view of Manhattan's One World Trade Center. The suite also features a walk-through dressing area and a statement bathroom with a black slate floor, glass shower, oversized double vanity with abundant storage and a separate toilet.
The parlor floor and upper levels are awash with sunlight and have Belgian oak wide plank floors and this beautiful wood elegantly frames all the windows. The lower level features a poured concrete floor throughout with an additional 2 bedrooms, currently configured as an office/studio and a cozy TV room, a full bathroom with walk in shower, clever under-stair storage, a mud room and egress to both the street and the patio. The extensive garden, accessible from the dining room or the downstairs lounge, features a custom pergola, plunge tub, two sitting areas and a large turf lawn. It is irrigated and landscaped with perennials.
The HVAC on each floor is zoned separately.
The lights, electronics and custom blinds are all controlled by Google voice.
Each floor has hard wired gigabit ethernet.
Reminiscent of old school Brooklyn, Carroll Gardens is a leafy, picturesque neighborhood with beautiful houses, pretty streets and easy access to renowned bars and restaurants. Carroll Park and the subway are just a few blocks away.

Gowanus | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Gowanus is a colorful neighborhood with an industrial aesthetic, tree-lined streets, historic structures, as well as luxury condos and rental buildings. It has a great art scene, fantastic eateries and bars and a 1.8-mile canal that snakes through most of the neighborhood. The variety of elements make it a desirable place to live.
The neighborhood is on the crest of a major change due to a recently passed rezoning plan that will allow more residential construction. Especially around the Gowanus Canal where construction was once prohibited. The plan will bring new jobs, affordable housing, and create a neighborhood with walkable green spaces and amenities. It’s safe to say that change is coming to Gowanus.
Gowanus is bounded by Hoyt Street to the west, 4th Avenue to the east, Warren Street, Baltic Street and Wycoff Street to the north, and Gowanus Expressway to the south.
The neighborhood is named after Gouwane, a chief in the Canarsie Indian tribe. His name, according to the history books, translates to “the sleeper.” Other historic accounts say that the Gowanus name comes from the Dutch word gouwee, which translates to the word bay. Based on early New York History surrounding Dutch settlers and native tribes, both accounts seem plausible.
Gowanus began development as far back as the 1630s when the Dutch arrived. They began building farms and soon realized the marshy lands they settled were not the best for growing crops and farming. They began damming up certain areas of the land with hopes of creating better soil and powering their windmills. This was the beginning of the formation of the Gowanus canal.
The natural estuary was once brimming with oysters and fish. But in the 1800s, the canal was turned into an industrial and transportation waterway. In the mid 1900’s, industrial factories like manufactured gas plants, paper mills, and other businesses opened along the canal and casually polluted the water. It’s cleanup efforts have come a long way but there is still much work to be done.
The newly approved Gowanus rezoning plan has caused lots of buzz this year. Mayor Bill DeBlasio's plan will rezone 82 blocks which will pave the way for an estimated 8,500 new apartments, 3,000 of which would be offered to low and moderate-income New Yorkers. The plan includes major improvements to the local infrastructure. Although the rezoning plan might not create a housing boom today or tomorrow, proponents say the rezoning sets the stage for major growth in Gowanus in the decades to come.
The F, G, D, N, R, and W subway lines service the Gowanus neighborhood.
