387 2nd Street

No detail has been overlooked in this exquisitely designed three-story, two family brownstone, centrally located on a beautiful tree-lined street in Park Slope. Impeccably gut renovated by the current owners, it includes a two-story extension measuring approximately 18'x13', increasing the overall square footage and creating a large deck off the master bedroom. Also included in the owner's duplex is central AC, radiant floor heating, and is wired for whole home audio. On the garden level is a two+ bedroom simplex rental unit and a full height cellar. The care and attention taken with each design feature in this home are truly second to none.

As you enter the house on the parlor level through the custom built mahogany double front doors and cross the threshold into the living room, you are met with a light and open living space complete with bay front windows, all new oak hardwood flooring, and a beautiful marble mantlepiece with original Victorian covers. This open room flows into the dining area behind, with room for a large table to comfortably seat 12 for dinner. Then the choice is yours: pass through the restored original etched glass sliding pocket doors and you'll find yourself in the den, tucked between the dining area and the stunning kitchen making great use of the space, or choose to enter the short hallway with the restored stained-glass transom overhead, directly into the breathtaking kitchen, which overlooks the back garden. This epicurean kitchen, fully renovated in 2015, boasts a six burner Wolf stove with ventilation hood to the outdoors, a stainless-steel Siemens built in refrigerator, Sub-Zero under counter temperature-controlled wine fridge and a Thermador dishwasher. The enormous custom built 8' x 4' white oak wood island countertop is the stunning centerpiece, with plenty of room to keep the home chef company as they prepare a meal, or a place to sit and enjoy your morning cup of coffee or family breakfast. Honed black stone countertops, semi-custom upper and lower cabinets, LED under-counter lights and the huge Kohler farmhouse sink with hands-free faucet complete this amazing kitchen. From the back door, the iron staircase leads you down to the private, sunny garden landscaped with brick pavers and built-in planters. There is also the always coveted, parlor level powder room, an essential addition to any modern townhouse.

Ascend the sky-lit oak staircase to the upper level of the duplex. Here, at the top of the stairs is the master bedroom, complete with an en-suite, sky-lit bathroom, designed with Italian wrap around porcelain tile, Caesarstone countertop double sinks, separate rain head glass walled shower, and an extra deep air jet bath tub. Off the master bedroom through glass French doors, is a 230 square-foot private terrace, sitting among the tree-tops and overlooking the backyards of Brooklyn. This oasis provides a perfect place to unwind with a book or a glass of wine in the evening or spend lazy weekend afternoon. Completing this level are two additional bedrooms, another full bath, a linen closet and a washer dryer unit.

The two+ bedroom simplex rental unit has original pine flooring and a renovated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless appliances. Keep it configured as is or combine with the upper duplex to make a beautiful one family home. The full height cellar is below and can easily be finished to add another full floor of living space to this home.

Located one half block from Fifth Avenue shopping and restaurants, two short blocks to 7th Avenue, three blocks from Prospect Park, easily reached by both the R and F/G subway lines, and currently zoned for the coveted PS 321 school zone, this distinctively designed home should not be missed.
