New York’s Church Condo!
New York's Church Condo!
It was ingenious to turn this wonderful old 1850's church into character-laden condos! Though the church congregation still holds services in the former Ladies Parlor, the church and chapel have been converted into condominiums. An impressive building, the church has two tall spires and was designed in the Early Romanesque Revival style. It was designated a landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission and was also put on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
There are 5 floorplans and #22, currently for sale, is one of the most beautiful with its multiple levels, which give attractive architectural interest and an added feeling of spaciousness. There are 2 bedrooms, one bath, a raised dining area and a living room. Windows appear to be higher than 2 stories and are fully composed of stained glass affording a cheerful wash of light while offering complete privacy. Large arches and carved plaster details are exquisite, rare and perfectly preserved.
Primarily settled as an Italian neighborhood, Carroll Gardens has a mix of young and old as well as both working class and professional residents. Atypically, many of the brownstones are set back 30-40 feet to provide front gardens and Carroll Park is lovely with mature trees, walking paths and landscaping. One can enjoy antique shopping or visiting the many boutiques and cafes, all of which add to the ambiance of this special place. Priced at $725k.
