390 9th Street, A

2000+ SF CONDO WITH 2 SPECTACULAR TERRACES!

The Arts and Crafts triplex at 390 9th Street received a top to bottom renovation in 2014 and is now ready for its next owner. If you want space, sunlight, expertly appointed details and fantastic outdoor space, Unit A at 390 9th street checks all of your boxes, all in the heart of Park Slope. The design that went into the renovation is of such high quality that it was photographed for Elle Decor, among other design publications.

The first floor of the duplex is the living space, with a grand, open flow between living room and dining room. The floors are stunning herringbone oak throughout this floor. The living room faces north and is framed by three floor to ceiling windows overlooking the Brooklyn treetops. A wood burning fireplace surrounded by a custom mantlepiece warms the space while natural sunlight illuminates it. Custom built-ins house the bar, bookcases, and a sound system with 3 zones. A receiving area, found at the foot of the stairs to above, separates dining from living, and here you will also find a powder room.

The dining room blends into the kitchen, easily sits a full Thanksgiving meal’s worth of guests and is centered by a vintage marble mantle. The windowed chefs kitchen features marble countertops and island, a 6 burner Wolf range with vented hood, SubZero fridge, a large farmhouse sink as well as a peninsula for additional counter space and easy entertaining. Three south facing windows let in light, making the kitchen the inviting center of the home.

The second floor of the home is where the three bedrooms are. Toward the front of the house is the master bedroom, with large windows, a walk in closet and an en-suite bathroom. The master bath calcutta marble, a soaking tub and a lovely skylight, giving the room the feeling of a peaceful sanctuary. To the back of the floor are two more full-size bedrooms, as well as a second bathroom and a laundry room. The second bath has the luxury of a steam shower. Both baths have heated floors as well.

Possibly the most special part of the home is the top floor, where not only are there two incredible outdoor spaces, but also an additional room, flooded with light and versatile in its potential use. Currently used as an office, it would make a perfect studio, den or even another bedroom.

Accessed from this room are the two outdoor spaces. Facing south is the large, entertaining terrace. The gas grill, which is connected to a gas line, will come with the home. Decked with ipe wood and expertly positioned and fully landscaped, this terrace hosts incredible dinner parties, relaxing Sunday afternoons and provides views of the New York harbor, Brooklyn rooftops, sunsets, and so much more. On the front portion of the roof is the second terrace, smaller in scale but more intimate in feel. This terrace is also decked and provides drop dead gorgeous views of downtown Manhattan. This terrace makes the perfect space for enjoying an evening glass of wine for two and taking in the breathtaking views.

On top of all of the bespoke design choices made by the owner, one of the houses greatest assets is its quality of construction. Originally planned to be home for the owner, an unexpected move away from New York City resulted in the conversion of the building into a 2 unit condo. However, since it was built to be home, the owner made super high end choices. Some of the highlights are:

-all new roof with c-joists to support the deck -new Marvin windows throughout -tongue and groove oak floors in herringbone pattern - all new electrical -all new plumbing -all new gas lines -ducted central air conditioning -completely rebuilt top floor bulkhead -all new skim coating and custom painting -separate basement storage for this apartment only -individual boilers and hot water heaters metered for this apartment only With over 2,000 square feet, this triplex feels like an entire house. It is located near subways and in the P.S. 39 district. Add to that the quality of construction and the exquisite design choices, and you have Park Slope perfection.
