Available for the first time in 50 years this expansive townhome offers approximately 6,600 square feet of living space and is located one block from Prospect Park in Park Slope one Brooklyn's most sought-after neighborhoods.

Originally built c. 1883 as a single-family brownstone mansion this home was transitioned to house Brooklyn Navy Yard workers during WWII and in its current iteration is configured as five spacious "free-market" dwellings plus cellar.

From the exterior you will appreciate the 22' width and grand scale of this townhome. The garden level is accessed through a newly painted private side stoop entrance. The apartment has hardwood floors, pocket doors, original woodwork, mantle and access to a private yard as well as the large newly painted basement. At the top of the stoop is the entrance to four additional sun-soaked dwellings starting with the stunning parlor floor featuring soaring 12'3" ceilings, pier mirror, original millwork, mantle and bonus storage area. The 2nd floor unit has two bedrooms and a new kitchen with new appliances, counters and custom cabinets as well as a newly refinished claw-foot tub and new RH marble sink. On the 3rd floor the original details are continued in this two-bedroom apartment with built-in floor to ceiling bookshelf, mantles, new kitchen counters and another newly refinished claw foot tub and RH marble sink in the bathroom. The top floor unit is also a two bedroom plus bonus room which could serve a guest room-nursery and features skylights in the kitchen and bathroom. Each dwelling has an in-unit washer-dryer, ample closet space, hardwood floors and details including original wood trim, shutters and stunning mantles.

This prime location is just one block to Prospect Park and close to the Brooklyn Museum and Public Library, Grand Army Plaza Greenmarket and Brooklyn Botanic Garden as well as many of Brooklyn's best restaurants and finest boutique shops. PS 321 eligible.

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).
