Property Description for 1309 Carroll Street
Stately single-family brick townhouse, full of original woodwork and charm, on gorgeous tree-lined block of prime Crown Heights.
Bay windows let sunlight flood a parlor living room with original inlaid hardwood floors, large mantel, built in cabinetry and plaster moulded ceilings. Living room opens to a formal dining room with coffered ceiling, original wainscot, and more inlaid hardwood floors. Kitchen at the back is functioning and ready for a modern upgrade, with tin ceiling, original built-ins and a powder room. The two top stories have five bedrooms, two baths, a large top-floor terrace, a perfectly preserved original pass-through dressing closet with built-ins and antique sink, and an enclosed second terrace.
Parlor floor ceilings are 9'4", with 8'9" and 8'6" ceilings on the upper two stories. The nautically themed basement has 7'8" ceilings, a large bar, a laundry room at the back with a half bath, a utility room in the middle, and windowed storage room at the front. While basement is below grade, its high ceilings provide significant additional usable space - and may be altered to allow natural light in at the front or back. Total size of the building measured at 3296sf, with 2205sf above grade, 1091sf below grade (with 7'8" ceilings), as well as 1694sf in outdoor spaces (yards, terraces, porch).
Backyard opens to an alleyway for vehicle access. City maps show an original garage structure, currently an open cover and paved for parking - yard could be adjusted for more parking or more backyard space. There is a large stone porch at the front of the building. Note, dining room and front hall light fixtures excluded from sale.
1309 Carroll Street has only been owned by two families since it was built 103 years ago. Lovingly lived in for over 70 years, this original beauty remains perfect and intact. With a few modern upgrades, this grand city residence patiently awaits to welcome its 3rd owners in over 100 years, as they embark upon their next chapter in this sought after Crown Heights community!

Quick Profile
Originally known as Crown Hill by the Lenape Indians that lived there, Crown Heights has evolved into a diverse neighborhood, occupied primarily by Hasidic Jews and one of the largest Caribbean populations to be found anywhere outside of the West Indies.
Head over to Nostrand Avenue, one of the main West Indian commercial areas in the neighborhood, which is lined with stores that have been in those exact same places for generations, providing their goods and services to area residents. Kingston Avenue has similar commercial activities that support the Jewish community, and Franklin Avenue shows the most signs of change and gentrification, with an ever-expanding mix of yoga studios, coffee shops, and organic grocery stores that serve the influx of young professionals. No matter which of these areas you visit, you will find an interesting mix of businesses that you wouldn’t normally picture as existing side-by-side. It is all part of the cultural diversity of Crown Heights.
The neighborhood is bisected, from east to west, by Eastern Parkway, which is a beautiful, 3-mile-long boulevard lined with mature trees. This leafy oasis was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, famed designer of Central Park, the Biltmore Estate in North Carolina, and the U. S. Capitol in Washington, D. C.
You will find a mix of low-rise apartment buildings, large middle-class elevator buildings, brownstones, and some luxury buildings. Century-old architecture stands next to modern residential developments in a visually interesting mix of styles, much as the diversity of the residents exists. People who would not normally meet and mix are forging new pathways to cultural understanding by working, living, and playing together in the same neighborhood.
