Property Description for 497 12th Street, 2-B

Mint-condition 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom floor-through condominium unit on prime South Slope park block. Located just one flight up from the stoop, this sunny, south-facing home recently finished up a complete overhaul adding such modern comforts as a stacked washer dryer, a professionally designed kitchen and custom built-ins throughout while maintaining original details like exposed brick, tin ceilings, stain glass, crown and baseboard moldings and updated and restored pine floors. The expansive windowed kitchen offers floor to ceiling maple cabinetry, stainless steel Bosch appliances, a double door refrigerator with freezer drawer, quartz countertops, open shelving, a deep sink and excellent storage. The unit’s versatile layout allows for multiple options, such as separate bedroom setups in the front and rear made possible by the custom living room built-in complete with fully concealed Murphy bed and pocket doors. Utilize the rear bedroom as a home office off your primary suite or as another sleeping area, completing a three-bedroom setup. Unwind in the windowed bathroom with original claw-foot tub surrounded by clean white tile and an updated pedestal sink. The separate dining area easily allows for seating for eight or more and provides a nice separation of space from the living room and kitchen. Gaze out your south-facing bay windows onto leafy treetop views and enjoy one of the most serene and quintessential blocks in Park Slope. Pet-friendly and located half a block from Prospect Park, this superb apartment is in close proximity to the F and G trains, as well as to the wonderful eateries, pubs, grocery stores and locally owned shops that make the South Slope both a vibrant destination and sought-after neighborhood. Stroller parking available in the foyer and open storage is in the cellar.

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).
