House: 334 Carroll Street

334 Carroll Street is a rarely available, mint condition, single-family townhouse on a bucolic stretch of Carroll Street. This spectacular home has amazing panoramic views of Manhattan and historic Carroll Gardens Brooklyn. Designed, and built, by Peter Guthrie, Founder and Head of Design of the acclaimed and award-winning DDG design, build, and development firm, from his Brooklyn yellowtrees studio, this 20’ wide, ground-up new construction is a contemporary oasis firmly rooted in its neighborhood’s storied past. Construction included an all-new structure, new mechanical systems, hand laid brick front facade with highly crafted details to landmarks standards and a more modern rear facade, new windows, and a landscaped rear yard and roof terrace.

Behind the gated forecourt and through the mud room entry, the loft-like parlor floor awaits, with a seamless blend of kitchen, living, and dining. This grand and luxe space with oversized windows and door leads to a deck that overlooks an immaculate landscaped garden. These details offer a glimpse of the contemporary flair that the design team has utilized to create an open and airy space that still feels warm and welcoming.

Flooring materials include Austrian 7-1/4"-wide kiln aged white oak floors throughout, beautiful bluestone pavers in the front and rear gardens, and herringbone Carrara and Seta marble tiling in the bathrooms. Bright natural sunlight pours into the home from both south and north exposures, allowing for optimal light throughout the day. The garden floor features a guest bedroom or home office, full bathroom, and living entertaining space, as well as a wet bar. There is also direct access to the landscaped garden and recreation gym or game room below. The garden is surrounded by other townhouses and their private gardens on all sides.

On the third level, the primary suite is laid out with a large bedroom, enormous walk-in closet, and a spacious spa-like bathroom with a custom-designed white oak and marble vanity. In addition, there is a cozy home office that could easily serve as a nursery or spare bedroom.

The top floor features three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a full laundry area with stacked washer dryer, counter, and sink and linen closet. The elegant custom curved stair continues to the expansive roof terrace with a sizable landscaped green roof and sweeping 360-degree views of Manhattan and historic Brooklyn.

Located on a historic block with vintage townhomes and only minutes from Manhattan, 334 Carroll blends intelligent design, and the highest level of finish and craftsmanship. The most discerning of purchasers will recognize the extremely unique and rare opportunity to own a completely mint architect-designed and crafted home in one of Brooklyn’s most coveted neighborhoods.
