Property Description for 283 Sterling Place

283 Sterling Place is a 4-story, legal 4-unit property with 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths located in the heart of Historic Prospect Heights.

This property is quite exquisite with ceilings soaring up to14' feet, beautiful hardwood flooring, impeccable sunlight throughout, original 19th century architectural details, and the classic charm of a true Brooklyn townhome. The flexible layout this home offers both privacy, and opportunity for an owner-occupied investment to generate rental income from the other units.

The owner's triplex starts on the basement level which is an unfinished canvas that can be configured to your imagination. As you come upstairs to the garden level you'll be met by graciously open living spaces, and large windows. Down the hallway is a large bedroom, the updated kitchen complete with cabinet storage matched with updated appliances. Another spacious bedroom can be found further down the hall. It features large closets and windows providing plenty of natural light to fill the room. Right outside this bedroom you'll find a pathway leading to the expansive outdoor space with lush gardens creating the perfect setting for entertaining guests or al fresco dining.

As you move up to the parlor floor there is a vast living room area. The room has an elegant fireplace and quaint French doors that open up to an eat-in kitchen and an extensive bedroom. The expansive windows in this bedroom create a vibrant space and a blank canvas to decorate as you please. On the other side of the living room is another sun-splashed voluminous bedroom complete with a full bathroom.

The beauty of this home continues with distinct architectural details you'll notice across the ceilings and walls as you make your way through the parlor floor and up to the third floor. The unit on the third floor is separate from the owner's triplex and features a beautiful floor-through suite, inclusive of a spacious living area accompanied by a charming fireplace, built-in shelving, storage and once again, incredible natural light. Also included in this unit is a full kitchen, a vibrant bedroom complete with a full bath and an additional room that can be used as an office space, workout room, Jr bedroom etc.

As you come up the top floor you'll find two separate one-bedroom apartments with windows, a kitchen, and a full bath in each. Additional details include polished hardwood flooring and a skylight atop the property allowing for the continuation of flooded sunlight.

Situated on a beautiful brownstone-filled block in Historic Prospect Heights, 283 Sterling Place is only one block away from Prospect Park, major transportation at Grand Army Plaza including the B,Q, 2,and 3 trains. Also close by is the Brooklyn Museum, the Botanical Garden, the Wildlife Preserve,and all the conveniences of modern Brooklyn city living infused with the tranquility of Historic Brooklyn townhome living.

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).
