Legend has it there's a 29 foot wide massive 4,700 square ft home in Carroll Gardens - on 1st place - with a 2 car driveway - 2 full width terraces - an indoor 220 square ft. garage with 12 foot ceilings and approximately 1,500 more buildable square footage able to be added to this already oversized home. Turns out, it's all true and is now available for sale for the first time since it was custom built for a large family - with truckloads of brick and concrete block, 52 years ago in 1970. Daniel Gale Sotheby's, Court St. is proud to offer perhaps the most unique property in Carroll Gardens for decades to come, don't miss out on this rare opportunity. Architectural rendering appearing in the main photo is merely one example of how this unique, oversized home can be built as a huge private 1 family, 5,900 + square foot custom home on just about the best block in Carroll Gardens, or divided into multiple condominiums for investment/income purposes. A third option is to move right in and collect a handsome rental income while you plan out the possibilities.
