Property Description for 621 2nd Street

On a tree-lined landmarked block steps to Prospect Park, this gorgeous 5BR/3.5BA, 4620SF barrel-front limestone boasts a sun-splashed floor plan teeming with splendid period details, a fabulous lushly landscaped backyard with cherry blossom tree, and has been legally converted to a two-family with a studio apartment to the front of the English basement. Enter at the parlor level where you are greeted by a formal living room brightened by a bay window and an under-stair storage closet. Pocket doors lead to the windowed formal dining room where elegant wainscotting, a decorative mantel and brass sconces set the stage for your next intimate soirée. To the rear, you will find a sparkling well-lit kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, abundant storage, walk-in pantry and windowed eat-in area where a passionate home chef might add additional counter space or an island. Ascend from the kitchen pantry or living room staircase to the second-level landing leading to a sizable, sunny front bedroom accented by a bay window and adjacent corner window, two built-in bookcases, and an expansive walk-in closet with dressing sink which connects to the back bedroom and a large full bathroom. Upstairs, the top level is occupied by another large bay-windowed bedroom with mirrored vanity, a bright bedroom with dressing sink and mirrored vanity, and a smaller bedroom currently configured as an office, built-in shelves flanking its window. The floor is completed by a wallpapered full bathroom with original stained-glass window. Off the kitchen, you will find a stairway with separate entrance that continues down to the English basement with a laundry room, plentiful storage closets, an extra refrigerator, powder room and income-generating studio apartment. The spacious bay windowed studio features a pass-through kitchen with breakfast bar, a comfortable living/dining area, separate space for a bed, a walk-in closet leading to a bathroom, an additional storage closet and a windowseat ideal for displaying plants, books or more storage. The beautifully manicured, fenced backyard is perfect for garden parties, soaking up the summer sun or planting your own herbs. Centrally located steps to Prospect Park, and a short walk to the many restaurants, dining, shopping and service options Park Slope has to offer, including Nitehawk Cinema, Old Stone House, Brooklyn Museum and Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Equidistant to the F/G at Seventh Ave and the 2/3/4 at Grand Army Plaza. A wonderful opportunity to own an income-generating sanctuary on a picturesque Park Slope block.

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).
