Welcome to 370 Carlton Avenue, a rare 25-foot-wide townhouse in the heart of Fort Greene. This lovely home offers 4,500sf of beautifully scaled rooms with high ceilings, a grand staircase, and a tranquil garden with brilliant southwestern light. This legal three-unit home is currently used by one family - and its four floors plus full basement present an amazing opportunity to customize as a single or two-family home or continue with its existing layout. Up the stoop to the grand and beautifully detailed parlor floor there is a double entry, and the front parlor living room boasts 11-foot ceilings with floor to ceiling windows.The rear parlor dining room has a sun porch extension and has a pass through to the galley kitchen. French doors from the kitchen open to a lovely deck for outdoor dining, and the garden below. There are two decorative mantels on this floor, and a powder room. The garden level of the home features a comfortable front living room, a full bath, and two bedrooms facing the garden. The third and fourth floors can function as separate apartments but are easy to incorporate into the home for single-family use.Each features a large bedroom, living room with decorative mantel and two smaller windowed rooms on each side, and an efficient kitchen in the center. With the extra wide 25 feet, these floors offer so much versatility, high ceilings, and amazing scale and light. Mechanical systems have been well maintained, and there is a split air conditioning system. This rare gem in the Fort Greene Historic District was built in the late 1800s by the builder Samuel Booth, once the mayor of Brooklyn. Booth chose a light buff-colored facade, and many of its neo-Grec details have been preserved including an incised geometric pattern in the lintels, and the original double doors with Greek portico above. 370 Carlton Avenue is perfectly located near some of the neighborhood's favorite restaurants including Walter's, Olea, Colonia Verde and Roman's, and convenient to all major subway lines at the Atlantic Terminal, and Brooklyn culture hubs at BAM and Barclay's Center.
