The original details continue on the third floor which also boasts 10 ft high ceilings, a sun drenched front bedroom with pristine white painted woodwork and glass paneled pocket doors leading to the middle parlor. The back half of this floor has been renovated with a small kitchen and bathroom for rental use, but could easily be converted back into bedrooms should you wish to create an upper owners duplex or use as a single family home.
On the garden level, a white marble mantle serves as a focal point for the living room, while the back half holds a large kitchen with breakfast bar, as well as laundry and full bathroom. Beyond the kitchen is a sunroom, perfect for a home office, den or playroom in the current configuration, or as a bedroom should you decide to use the garden level as a rental until.
Below the garden is a bone dry basement, currently used as a workshop and den, with almost 7ft high ceilings, and several built out closets. A new boiler and hot water heater were installed just 5 years ago, and a mini-split A/C system on the garden level is another recent addition. This home is conveniently located just off 5th Avenue, inviting you to enjoy all that Park Slope living has to offer, and is only a few blocks from the F, G and R trains, the YMCA, 9th Street Market, and Park Slope Library!
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).
