Property Description for 828 Union Street

Spanning 4,120 square feet and four stories, 828 Union Street is a grand single-family brownstone nestled on a bucolic block in prime Park Slope. Measuring 20’ wide with ceilings up to 12 feet, the house features impressive and well-maintained period details. Up the stoop is the stately and grand facade, which is in pristine condition. There is an immediate sense of grandeur on the parlor floor with 12’ ceilings and original details including moldings, mirrors, pocket doors and a fireplace. The entire floor is dedicated to entertaining, with a 32’ long living room and a formal 19’ x 15’ dining area in the rear, which currently functions as a media room. Downstairs, the garden level is centered around a large eat-in kitchen with new Henrybuilt cabinets, a custom walnut banquette and a brand new, state of the art appliance package including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf oven and Viking dishwasher. Off the kitchen is a convenient and thoughtfully-designed mud room with a full-size washer and dryer and direct access to the sunny south-facing backyard stretching 35’ deep. The garden level is complete with a large family room overlooking Union Street with unique old-world features including an original coal stove and huge oak pocket doors. The third level of the home is the grand primary suite, spanning 1,000 square feet with ceilings up to 10 feet. The 19’ x 22’ bedroom is extremely spacious with original period cabinetry and mantles. The rear of the parlor has a large sitting home that could also function as an office or additional bedroom. The upper level of the home encompasses two large bedrooms with original mantles and fireplaces, as well as two auxiliary rooms that can serve as additional bedrooms or home offices. 828 Union Street is ideally located just one and a half blocks from Prospect Park in the PS 321 school district. Enjoy the best of Brooklyn’s parks, restaurants, shopping and museums with convenient access to Manhattan via several subway lines within a few blocks.

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).
