About This Home

As of March 2021

Unexpected surprises abound in this rarely available, triple-mint condition Carroll Gardens townhouse! 288 Carroll Street is a 4 Bed/6 Bath brownstone that will excite and inspire with its incredible design. This home features a dramatic extension with double-height glass facing south in the rear of the home, bringing in incredible sunlight all day long. The parlor level combines a graceful modern aesthetic with an understated nod to the home's past: Danish 14' Dinesen plank floors, original window shutters, custom built-in shelves, decorative fireplace, Quasar chandelier, discreetly hidden wet bar and half bath, subtle hints of the home's original decorative plasterwork and a glass partition overlooking the double-height garden level and backyard space below. Also on this level: a surprising window terrace just above the parlor level, spanning the entire width of the home, revealing modern planters and greenery. On the third floor are two bedrooms, both with beautifully appointed ensuite bathrooms, a laundry area and a home office that can double as a walk-in closet. Continue up the custom designed floating staircase to the primary bedroom suite level where a wall of sliding doors leads to a lovely private terrace, complete with irrigated planters and Japanese greenery providing ever-evolving color and blooms throughout the year. Just off the terrace is an office/reading area and large walk-in closet. The primary bedroom faces south, a peaceful room with designer light fixtures and clever glass partition embedded in the wall to provide views of the front terrace's verdant garden while lying in the comfort of your bed. The ensuite spa-like bath is graced with a deep soaking tub, Massaud Axor waterfall/shower fixtures, shower skylight, Porcelanosa countertop and Toto washlet toilet. The garden level is the heart of the home with the kitchen open to the living/dining areas and hidden pocket doors creating a family/media room. The kitchen has a marble waterfall countertop island, custom eucalyptus cabinetry, Wolf, Sub-Zero and Miele appliances. There is a kitchen pantry room, full bath, guest bedroom and full entryway/mudroom just off the gated, under-the-stoop entry. The backyard has porcelain pavers and outdoor speakers for the grilling and entertaining. In the basement is a rec room, office area and lots of storage. This home has luxurious radiant heat floors throughout, 8 zone AC and the Control4 programmable digital home system, controlling the home's mechanical window shades, lighting and sound system for seamless living. 288 Carroll Street is a rare gem nestled in the heart of Brownstone Brooklyn with its laid-back living and easy-going charm.
