Property Description for 558 1st Street
Beauty, Space and Light - yes, you can have them all in a Brooklyn townhouse. On the park block of 1st Street, you will find each of these three attributes in every room. At 21' wide, and with the desirable center stair layout, every room is wide and wonderful, with light streaming in.
The double parlor is especially light due to an open plan and the triple bay window at the front. With high ceilings and beautiful original herringbone floors, there is almost a loft feeling. The formal dining room accommodates an over-large table and has been the scene for countless large gatherings. French doors lead to the deck and south-facing garden. The kitchen, in an extension, is large and light and also leads to the deck. It has been renovated with appliance and workspace for serious cooks. A powder room has been tucked in on the parlor floor also.
Upstairs you land in a gracious space formed by the center stair. There are two very large bedrooms and a bathroom facing south. The original closets between the bedrooms are still in place, and in use. Again, all the floors are original and lovely.
The top floor offers 2 large and 2 small bedrooms along with a skylit bathroom and additional shower room. On the garden level, there is a large laundry room with windows in the extension. Loads of storage is available on this floor and there is a studio apartment with a separate entrance.

Quick Profile
Boasting beautiful tree-lined streets, brownstones and a range of activities for all age groups, Park Slope is consistently ranked as one of New York’s most desirable neighborhoods. Filled with lush parks and greenery, the neighborhood is also known for its rare combination of excellent public schools, award-winning restaurants, nightlife, small independently owned businesses and community gardens.
Situated at the western slope of Prospect Park, the neighborhood is divided into different sections: North Slope, Center Slope and South Slope. Depending on who you ask, of course, the definitions of where these borders end and begin may vary (is the divide between North and Center deemed Union Street, Garfield Place, 1st Street or 3rd Street? The one between Center and South 6th Street, 9th Street, 11th Street or 15th Street?).
Regardless of what part of the Slope you find yourself on, there’s no shortage of architectural beauty. From row houses to brownstones to mansions, the idyllic setting of the neighborhood is further enhanced by its Romanesque and Renaissance Revival styles. Case in point of this is also two of the area’s most well-known churches, Park Slope United Methodist Church and Saint Augustine Roman Catholic Church.
Revered for its family-friendly appeal, Park Slope is often regarded as one of the best places to raise a family in New York City. That said, it doesn’t mean that parents don’t know how to have a good time... a slew of bars constantly opening in the neighborhood ranging from the high-end cocktail saloon to the dive (well, by Park Slope standards, anyway).
