132 Saint Marks Place, 1-R

Often desired yet rarely found, the unicorn that is the Park Slope duplex condominium with private outdoor space has finally arrived! Residence 1R at 132 Saint Marks Place checks all the boxes and then some: two large bedrooms plus the option for a third sleeping area, two fully renovated bathrooms, a newly renovated kitchen, two private outdoor spaces including an enormous south-facing backyard, high ceilings, bay windows, hardwood floors, a washer/dryer and low monthlies all set within an intimate 8-unit North Park Slope condominium. Welcome home. Enter apartment 1R to find a nearly 35 foot long living/dining room and eat-in-kitchen. Gorgeous north-facing bay windows allow for lovely morning light while the decorative fireplace flanked by whitewashed exposed brick and exceptionally high ceilings create a truly serene place in which to spend time. There are dedicated spaces for both living and dining and, just down the hall, the renovated eat-in-kitchen offers additional space to prep, dine and gather. Replete with storage and counter space galore, the open kitchen features a new stainless steel appliance package, tile backsplash and one of three ceiling fans on the upper level of this lovely home. Heading towards the rear of the upper level you'll find the south-facing primary bedroom and bathroom. The oversized, completely renovated bathroom features a tiled, glass-enclosed full bathtub and substantial storage space. The primary bedroom, meanwhile, overlooks the spectacular private deck and garden while bathing in natural light from its southern exposure. There is both a large closet and significant upper storage space, too. Heading downstairs to the lower level of this sprawling duplex, you'll find the seriously spacious south-facing second bedroom which looks out onto the private garden. Just outside of it is the stunning second bathroom with a beautifully tiled shower and exposed brick. Best of all, there are two bonus rooms on the lower level. The open middle room can be used as a recreation/play space, office or the like while an entirely separate room with a built-in Murphy Bed can be used as a third bedroom, additional office or whatever suits your needs. A washer/dryer and loads of additional storage complete the lower level. Finally, the star of the show: exit through either level to find your sprawling private garden, deck and lower patio. Beautifully landscaped, enormous and south-facing, the backyard provides ample space to have the garden of your dreams while offering plenty of room to dine and gather. 132 Saint Marks Place is a well-run, intimate eight unit condominium. It's professionally-managed, pet friendly and features a common laundry room as well. With its swoon-worthy north Park Slope location, shopping and dining options abound while 11 subway lines service the immediate area. World class entertainment can be found just up the Avenue at the Barclay's Center while the home's central location affords quick access to Prospect Park and the lovely surrounding brownstone Brooklyn neighborhoods.
