Property Description for 582 2nd Street, 1-L

Expansive living spaces and endless sunlight make this pristine two-bedroom, two-bathroom Park Slope duplex condominium a true haven just steps from Prospect Park.


Spanning a generous 1,396 square feet, you'll enjoy beautiful finishes throughout this thoroughly updated home. Gleaming wide-plank ash hardwood floors and tall art walls amplify the sense of space and light, while handsome millwork and premium stone nod to the fine craftsmanship. Arrive on the upper level to find a large living area and open kitchen flanked by windows facing north and south. Chefs will delight in the kitchen's top-notch stainless steel and integrated appliances, including a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher, while the massive island breakfast bar provides the ideal space for casual dining. Two large bedrooms, featuring ample closet space, are tucked at the rear of this level, and the windowed upstairs bathroom is beautifully finished in marble tile with a tub/shower and a contemporary floating vanity.


The modern, custom-built staircase features a glass enclosure, allowing light to flow unimpeded between levels. The huge, flexible lower level is suitable as a living room, playroom, home gym, media room or all of the above. There's a spacious bathroom with frameless glass shower here, as well as a convenient laundry closet with an in-residence Electrolux washer and fully vented dryer. A dehumidification/air purification system and zoned central heat and air provide year-round comfort, and a 90-cubic-feet basement storage cage ensures storage will never be a concern in this gorgeous Park Slope duplex.


Constructed in 1909 by architect Thomas Bennett, The Bennett House is a handsome corner building in limestone and buff brick with classical and Renaissance-inspired detailing. Redeveloped in 2015 and configured as a boutique collection of just five condominium homes, today's residents enjoy very low common charges, a tax abatement and a lovely common roof deck.


Located on one of the lovely tree-lined streets in the Park Slope Historic District, this home is close to the neighborhood's renowned dining, shopping and nightlife. At the end of the block, Prospect Park's 526 acres of outdoor splendor offers miles of trails, year-round events, abundant playgrounds and ball fields. Head to Grand Army Plaza for the year-round greenmarket — the second largest in the city — or venture a bit further to the Brooklyn Museum, Library and Botanic Garden. Transportation from this coveted neighborhood is a breeze with B/F, G, 2/3 and Q trains within easy reach.

Park Slope | Brooklyn

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).
