227 Garfield Place

Welcome Home to 227 Garfield Place. Designed by architect Charles Werner and constructed in 1890 by owner-builders Martin & Lee who developed much of Garfield Place. The original classified ad in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle advised “Delays are dangerous; come soon or you lose a gem of a house … cabinet trim, oak hall, back parlor and stairs, all stories polished in natural wood.” True in 1890 and true today—this beautiful Brownstone is a gem of a house on one of the finest blocks in Park Slope. Original details showcase true 19th century craftsmanship—oak woodwork and inlaid floors, gorgeous three-quarter tiger oak paneling, three original mantels, wood burning fireplace and high ceilings. This classic residence is set up as a double duplex. Currently used as an owner's lower 2 bed duplex with terrace and garden access and a prime upper duplex with 3+ beds generating top income. Full cellar is accessed from the garden floor. See alternate floor plan for owner's triplex over a garden rental.
