Effortlessly blending the craftsmanship of yesteryear with the comforts and design of today, this 20-foot-wide brownstone is the Park Slope home of your dreams. Legally zoned as a 4-family, the 3500-square foot property is currently configured as an owner's lower duplex with a pair of market-rate 1.5BR/1BA rental units above. The stunning local architect-designed 3BR/1.5BA owner's duplex is comprised of the parlor and garden floor. You are warmly greeted by a vestibule with intricate tilework and a gracious entry foyer with a custom chandelier. Open-concept living at its finest, the parlor level is the ultimate space for entertaining and daily living, consisting of an expansive living room with full-height windows leading into the state-of-the-art eat-in kitchen. Form and function play equal roles in the impeccably-designed gourmet kitchen, which has been fitted with sleek lacquer cabinets, Statuary slab marble countertops with a matching backsplash, an under-mount Kohler sink, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances that include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Wolf induction cooktop, a professional-grade hood, dual Wolf wall ovens (convection and steam ovens), a Sharp microwave drawer, and a Bosch dishwasher. The marble-topped center island offers additional storage, work space, and seating space. There is a dining area with adequate room for a full-size dining set, as well. A striking glass wall overlooks the bluestone deck with stairs leading to the serene, verdant backyard. A glass door from the kitchen opens to the deck for easy indoor-outdoor living. Fashionably functional solid walnut storage cabinets with dovetail joints that were hand-built by a local artisan span nearly the entire the length of the parlor level along the wall. There are stylish translucent ceiling fans in both the kitchen and living room as well as recessed lighting and Sputnik lighting in the hallway. A half bath with trendy patterned tile and designer fixtures completes the level along with lofty ceilings and restored walnut-stained hardwood floors with under-floor concealed heating. Home to the sleeping quarters where three separate bedrooms and a full bathroom are found, the garden level features an entrance of its own along with garden access. There is a king-size master bedroom, a generous second bedroom on the opposite end (both with custom walk-in closets), and a compact bedroom that is ideal for a nursery or study that leads to a patio and lovingly-landscaped garden. The luxurious European spa-like bathroom is adorned with a custom marble-topped vanity, a deep soaking tub, high-end fixtures, classic subway tiled walls, and a towel warmer. Two linen closets sit outside the bathroom. Hardwood floors continue onto the level. The washer-dryer is located in the basement, Multi-zone central HVAC provides year-round comfort throughout the duplex. Additional recent improvements include new electrical and plumbing, new boiler, and recently replaced water heater and roof.
