Property Description for 648 2nd Street, 5

Improved and Back On Market ! This Park Slope 2 bedroom Coop home in a Storybook Setting will amaze you with its light and views. Soaring above Prospect Park , boasting period detail, low monthlies and no underlying mortgage , this home has it all! Your peaked ( 13 ft. ) and beamed living room overlooks the park-side gardens of Ethical Culture Society to the north and East over Prospect Park , West to city skyline . Home's open concept kitchen is further brightened by its own skylight! Gorgeous hardwood floors and the original 1906 mirrored tiger oak mantel with WBFP will delight your guests. Your large entry foyer is generous enough to use as a banquette dining area or home office or you might also add an elegant stairway to a future private roof-deck. Most impressive is the enormous master bedroom with 3 windows overlooking a completely open vista stretching south. Master bedroom could add an en-suite 1/2 bath, and as it spans full width of the building, it is also large enough to accommodate a separate nursery or a windowed den. Elegant master bedroom also has original Eastlake wood-burning fireplace and the exposed beams that add charm to both LR and Master. Second bedroom is off LR and faces north over the tranquil landscaped gardens, and this bedroom boasts clever built-ins. Kitchen features Fisher Paykel, Samsung and other popular appliances, with cherry cabinets and granite countertops. Bath has earth toned custom tiles and a spacious tub. Stacked LG washer dryer in unit. Generous storage and an additional laundry in basement. Did we mention Low Monthlies? With no underlying mortgage, and no assessments. (Current owner has paid for many recent capital improvements: boiler, replacement of lead water main, a once in a lifetime major facade project ending soon, and repointing basement.). This friendly and financially established 5 member coop occupies a landmarked building designed by noted Architect Benjamin Driesler, and is overlooking 2 architectural landmarks built by William Tubby. This beautiful prime Park Slope location was landmarked in 1973. Currently zoned PS 321 and close to all shopping and transit in Park Slope. Note: Apartment 5 has access to a undeveloped roof one flight up. With proper coop and landmarks approval the roof could host a deck, AC compressors and/ or whatever you imagine. The views of the harbor and skyline and over Prospect Park are simply stunning. Located one lot away from Prospect Park West, if you are looking for a coveted Park Slope location with quiet and light to call your home, at very low monthly cost this is it! PETS welcome!

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).
