Description
Spectacular, one of a kind 32-ft+ wide mansion with unrivaled original detail set on bucolic Carroll Street just moments to Prospect Park. Built by famed architect C.P.H. Gilbert in 1887 at the height of the Gilded Age in America, this Romanesque Revival architectural masterpiece features the fine detailing and opulence that Gilbert was famous for. This unique residence is one of just a handful of grand houses in the area that is over 32-ft wide, and one of the only of this breadth that maintains the original footprint and original intact detail. The current owners are just the 4th family to own the home since 1887 when George Kenyon commissioned the house. With 12 bedrooms, 6 full bathrooms and 3 half baths this grand property spans over 7000sf of interior space with an additional 1280sf of outdoor space for a staggering 8400 in total. The garden is a separate renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom guest apartment boasting a wall of triple sliding doors leading to a large backyard. Ascend the stoop to the jewel of the house at the grand parlor level, where the expansive entry area features a massive mahogany fireplace, a grand center staircase, and powder room. Oversized windows flood the dining room and extra wide south-facing living room with natural sunshine all day long. Original wood-burning fireplaces can be found in each room and is the centerpiece of the grand living room. The kitchen has brand new, never-used appliances and a south facing window-clad seating area that is set amongst the lush trees of the back yard. Up one flight youll find four sunny bedrooms, three fireplaces, and two full bathrooms. The primary bedroom suite features a south-facing deck and an enormous primary bathroom. The fourth floor has an additional 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, laundry room, and two fireplaces. The reinforced center staircase allows for a perfect layout with bathrooms in the middle and spacious rooms all around, bringing in the utmost sunshine into each of the bedrooms. The fifth floor is a spectacular, separate two-bedroom loft apartment showcasing vaulted 12-ft ceilings, original beams, a fireplace, full kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, laundry, balcony, and 2 skylights. It evokes the feeling of a Parisian atelier and would be an ideal staff residence, artists loft, or guest suite. The present owner has gutted the house twice providing meticulously restored internal upgrades so that the infrastructure is of the highest quality: Central A/C 9 working fireplaces New electric: extra large capacity electric risers with all 2 gauge distribution 1-2 electric panels on every floor and heavily wired throughout All new brass and copper plumbing with extra heavy cast iron All original plaster replaced with skim coated walls Main kitchens dishwasher, oven, stove and refrigerator have never been used The staircase from parlor to 5th floor has been rebuilt The rear kitchen extension is constructed of high strength steel and encased in mahogany and copper exterior The rear living room bay was totally rebuilt and is mahogany and copper clad The garden guest unit is completely insulated from the upper main New boiler less than 5 years old Alarm system installed Original restored detail intact The grandeur and graceful lifestyle this spectacular house affords ensures that it will be handed down through generations. Set on one of the prettiest park blocks in all of Brooklyn, this trophy home is truly a must see. An opportunity for the most discerning buyer.
