355 President Street offers the buyer that thinks that they have "seen everything" a rare treat of extraordinary design and convenience. This wonderful corner property in Carroll Gardens offers a mint condition one-family townhouse with a terrace and garden, PLUS a newly built carriage house in the back complete with indoor parking for one car, a home office, and a unique apartment complete with kitchen and full bath. Recently renovated, the design is fresh, the light is extraordinary from three exposures, and the ability to park/work/live or have guests stay over in your own backyard, is unprecedented. Imagine the joy of moving into a triple-mint home with all of the aforementioned delights just one block away from every amenity for which Brownstone Brooklyn has become so coveted, including award-winning restaurants, schools, shops, parks, quiet tree-lined blocks, and transportation. This residential compound has every historic detail in tandem with every modern luxury. Chef's kitchen, spa baths, designer wallpaper, central AC, new windows, modern shutters, linen Roman shades, architectural lighting, and an automatic garage door are the icing on top of a townhouse and carriage house replete with wide-plank pine floors, a stunning staircase with mahogany balustrades, four marble fireplace mantles, dentil molding, original window and base casings, and intricate fretwork. Set back from the street for maximum privacy by a 30' deep front yard characteristic of this quiet neighborhood, you will enter up a stoop to a majestic parlor floor that belies its width. With the removal of interior walls, the addition of an extension, and windows on three sides, this floor will become your primary hangout. Grounded by a stunning kitchen in the middle, a living room in front with a gas fireplace, a powder room, and a formal dining room in back that flows seamlessly to your private garden, you will never want to leave this floor. The kitchen offers an island of grand proportions, custom stainless fronted cabinetry, Fisher and Paykel fridge, Wolf Range, TWO Bosch dishwashers, oversized sink, and a true walk-in pantry with electricity, perfect to ensure that your honed Carrara marble counters will always be clutter-free. The formal dining room includes Osbourne and Little wallpaper, and a powder room includes a poured-concrete countertop, stone sink, and grass-cloth walls. The top floor beckons you with a luminous skylight, offering two ensuite bedrooms, including a Primary bedroom with a terrace and double closets. The Primary bathroom is a spacious marvel with a free-standing tub, walk-in-shower, radiant heated floors, an oversized marble basin perfect for two, marble basketweave mosaic floors and subway tiled walls. The garden level offers two additional bedrooms, one with an ensuite bath, plus a laundry room and another full bath, and a large bedroom in the back that also makes a great second living room or oversized office. The additional four bathrooms are equally luxurious with radiant heated floors, oversized hex floors, vanities with stone tops, and nickel hardware. All bedrooms are light-filled, and the fourth bedroom downstairs makes a perfect 2nd living room with its exposed beams, custom mill-work, and a second gas fireplace. Head outside to the private courtyard with bluestone pavers and oversized planters, and enter into the carriage house that features an enchanting apartment on the top floor, offering a custom kitchenette, full bathroom, and beamed ceilings. An additional office downstairs can remain, or be removed if you want to park an oversized vehicle. This is a home with so many unexpected features, and such a high-quality renovation, that you must view it in person to truly appreciate it. A quick jaunt to Carroll Park, Smith Street, Court Street, Whole Foods, the F/G/R trains, and every amenity for which Carroll Gardens, Boerum Hill, and Gowanus have become so beloved.
