393 PRESIDENT Street

393 President Streеt iѕ a 4‐5 bedrοοm, 2.5 bаth character‐fіllеd Βroοklyn townhouse with a beautifully refreshed facade, tucked onto a quiet, one-block street in Carroll Gardens, near Park Slope and the rapidly transforming Gowanus waterfront, Brooklyn's "Little Venice," with exciting new development, restaurants, galleries and neighborhood amenities. Get in while you can!

Owner-occupied by artists who cared for this home for over 50 years, this charming townhouse features exposed brick, patterned pressed-tin ceilings, wide-plank wood floors, a turned-baluster staircase, beadboard wainscoting, wonderfully quirky vintage bathroom fixtures, a Garland stove and deep back yard.

Bring your vision and contractor to modernize it to make it your own.

The real showstopper is the extraordinary light and openness of the top floor. Formerly the owner's artist atelier, it has recently been transformed into an airy, sun-filled, open loft-style space, with an enormous skylight overhead and additional skylights in the hallway and bathroom. Recently sanded wood floors add to the spacious feeling. The flexible layout offers the potential for three bedrooms on this level, including a primary bedroom, and two more on the middle floor, subject to applicable approvals.

Southern exposure brightens the front rooms, while low-rise neighbors to the east offer open garden views. Out back, a private, leafy garden was recently landscaped by the Brooklyn Garden Club with a new flagstone path and a lovely mix of hydrangeas, boxwoods, coral bells, ferns, evergreens and flowering perennials. All the rear windows now overlook this delightful garden, offering sparkling green views throughout the house. A whimsical woven garden arch adds charm, while the high wall adjoining the renovated P.S. 32 addition provides unusual privacy. A leaded stained-glass window and a charming planting nook beside the front stoop add a few more delightful touches.

Currently configured with one main kitchen, and 2.5 bathrooms, the home was most recently enjoyed as a duplex with the full-floor studio above repleat with large sink, plus a full-height cellar with storage, workshop, mechanicals and laundry. Legally a three-family property, it offers possibilities for owner-occupancy, rental income or single-family conversion.
