This one really does have it all! Just a block from Prospect Park, this top-floor 1.5-bedroom coop apartment has been meticulously renovated. With A/C, a wood-burning fireplace, in-unit washer/dryer, impressive storage AND a roof deck, it’s everything you want in a Park Slope home! Thoughtfully designed to create a modern and inviting atmosphere while maintaining prewar charm, the open floor plan seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas, making it perfect for entertaining. The spacious living room has bay windows overlooking the tree-lined street. Abundant natural light streams in throughout the day through east and west-facing windows.  The wood-burning fireplace has been updated with a new marble mantel and stone lining, including a wood-storage area. The tastefully renovated kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring sleek stone countertops, a Bertazzoni stove, Fisher-Paykel fridge, Bosch dishwasher, and an in-wall oven and microwave. Not to mention amazing storage space, including a pantry! Both bedrooms are located at the quiet rear of the building. The large primary bedroom offers two windows for a cross breeze, and includes a built-out closet with a Bosch washer and dryer.  The second bedroom works well as a nursery or additional home office (or as currently used, a dressing room) with ample closets and an east-facing window. The windowed bath features an original clawfoot tub and a marble-top vanity. The apartment has hardwood floors, picture moldings and tin ceilings throughout; updated windows, and custom window treatments. Up one flight of stairs is the roof deck, shared with one other unit (each unit has exclusive roof rights to half of the roof). With panoramic views of Brooklyn and Manhattan, as well as water and electricity, it's a perfect spot for entertaining and gardening. If your needs change over time, you’ve got options with this flexible layout. The alternate floorpan shows another option, to create a large second bedroom in the front of the apartment. This well-maintained eight-unit limestone co-op is  pet-friendly and features additional storage and bike storage in the basement. The common areas and basement have all been recently renovated, and the mechanicals updated. Prospect Park is just a block away. Surrounded by great restaurants, cafes, and shops, and with easy access to the F and G trains, the location is unbeatable.
