Property Description for 591 4th Street
Welcome to 591 Fourth Street, a restored limestone on a prime Park Slope block, just seconds away from Prospect Park. Inside and out, there are beautiful details everywhere you look, including original woodwork, five fireplaces with original mantels, original floors, pristine front and back gardens, and even central air conditioning.
Located on a prime block bordering Prospect Park, there are 4 floors of living space and beautiful gardens front and back. As you enter the home at the parlor level, you walk into the spacious living room, with a dramatic view of the central staircase that allows for the front parlor to span the width of the entire house.
Continuing on, past a classic fireplace, is the formal dining room with another beautiful mantel and rich wood paneling. Walk through a beautiful door with stained glass into the kitchen, which features custom tile work, a Thermador double oven, Viking gas range with built-in barbecue, and lovely views of the well-manicured backyard. There is also a convenient half bath and access to both the backyard and English basement.
As you go up the stairway, the original skylight comes into view. The second floor contains the primary bedroom in the front, with original stained-glass breakfront with marble sink and two large closets. The equally sized back room is currently set up as a study, and in between is a full bath.
On the top floor there is a large front room to use as a bedroom, den, or playroom, a full bathroom, and two smaller bedrooms at the back.
Finally, there is the English basement. Currently set up with a cedar closet, storage rooms, and a large laundry, it is ready to be used as is or reconfigured as a casual living space. It could easily be converted to any combination of office, den, game room, work-out space, wine cellar, or screening room. Check out our vision for this space in the photos.
In addition to the beauty of the house, it's got good bones. There is central air conditioning - practically unheard of for these homes - and an automatic watering system installed in both the front and back gardens.
And, of course, the location is sublime: seconds away from Prospect Park, and near all Park Slope has to offer!
This magnificent home must be toured in person to appreciate its special qualities.

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).
