Property Description for 489 4th Street

Home Sweet Home in the Heart of Park Slope!

The epitome of elegant simplicity in prime PS 321 Park Slope, this beautiful 20ft wide Romanesque Revival 4-story Townhouse has been lovingly maintained by the current owners for over 60 years!

With perfect picture windows on every floor and turn-of-the-century details throughout, this home offers 3458 square feet of living space. Currently configured as a three family home with 6BRs+/3.5 baths; an owner’s duplex and two high income producing rental units. This house can be easily converted to a single family home or a triplex with one rental.

The top floor features a sun-filled 2BR apartment with tree-top views, an eat-in-kitchen and skylights. The 3rd floor is a lovely, light, open and airy 1BR floor-through with an eat-in-kitchen. The owner's 3BR/1.5 bath garden duplex offers a generous formal dining room, eat-in-kitchen, bedrooms located on the parlor floor, and a large sun-filled backyard. The duplex could use updating and/or reconfiguring to suit your style, with an opportunity to unveil grand ceilings and plaster walls currently hidden by drop ceilings and wood paneling. The clean, semi-finished basement would make an ideal space for a media room, children's play room, or guest suite for your visitors; this space offers great ceiling height, laundry, and ample plumbing to create another bathroom. The sturdy structural bones of this home have been treated to a new roof, new mechanicals, and recent waterproofing throughout.

Perfectly located on a lovely tree-lined street, between 7th & 8th Avenues, near Prospect Park, and around the corner from Park Slope's best restaurants, shops, and services. A significant addition to Park Slope’s Historic District, this house is a rare find!

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).
