Located in one of Brooklyn's most desirable historic neighborhoods, this 6,075 square foot immaculate Italianate style brownstone was fully rebuilt to a standard of luxury and convenience seldom seen. A private elevator whisks you between all floors, comprising 6 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, and numerous well-proportioned and luxurious living and dining spaces. A rooftop lounge, and landscaped rear and front gardens, contain another 2,000 square feet of private outdoor living space.What is unique about this historic location? Positioned mid-block on one of only three “Place Blocks” in Carroll Gardens, 32 1st Place has an extra deep front garden, defined with an original wrought iron fence and gate, that provides for an abundance of natural light and air, including wonderful sight lines, along this beautiful verdant tree-lined street.
