298 Carroll Street

This three-story Carroll Street Historic District brownstone was built in 1862. It measures 19 x 40 with approximately 2,284 sf of living space and additional available FAR. The block is wide and the lots are deep and the home is flooded with light. There is a lushly landscaped south-facing garden and a characteristically deep Carroll Street front garden. The home has much preserved original detail, including marble mantels, tin ceilings, plaster moldings, pastoral wall paintings and more. Artfully upgraded, the current layout includes a gracious entry with original staircase, a double parlor floor with high ceilings, bedrooms on the top floor, and 3 baths. The garden level has a sparkling open kitchen with maple cabinets, green granite counters and stainless steel appliances. There is a dining and sitting room on this floor, a laundry in the one-story extension and a full basement below. The neighborhood has international flair and is a francophone enclave with dual language programs in 3 schools nearby. Carroll Park, the year-round Sunday Green Market and the F&G trains are on the corner. Gastronomes delight in the myriad shops and restaurants on Smith and Court and a splendid Whole Foods nearby. SHOWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.
