Property Description for 619 2nd Street

This meticulously restored and renovated 1920s Park Slope limestone townhouse is move-in-ready and offers a unique blend of historic charm and contemporary sophistication right in the heart of prime Park Slope, on a coveted block, steps from Prospect Park.
The grand parlor's high ceilings, bay windows, coat closets, and formal dining room with hand-restored oversized oak doors and a wood-burning fireplace provide a perfect setting for large gatherings or intimate dinners. A Murano glass chandelier is an elegant centerpiece, and the tucked-away powder room with its custom marble sink is a welcome addition.
The eat-in chef's kitchen features lava stone flooring with radiant heat, a walk-in pantry, a Blue Star six-burner commercial range and refrigerator, an oversized sink, and a stunning hand blown chandelier.
Flooded with natural light, the upper floors are a restful retreat. They include a spacious primary bedroom with a huge walk-in closet, a bedroom/office with a wood-burning fireplace, a spa-style bath with handmade marble sinks, a generous full slab shower, and a custom cast iron soaking tub.
On the top floor you will find three additional bedrooms, huge walk-in closets, a skylight-lit home office, and a well-appointed bath with an extra-long bathtub and hand painted tiles from the Hudson Valley.
The garden level offers a fully renovated guest suite with a full bath and gourmet kitchenette-ideal for extended visitors, au pairs, or in-laws-as well as abundant storage, a laundry room, a rec room with a half bath, and access to the spacious rear yard.
Artistically curated elements set this gem of a townhouse apart-lighting fixtures from New York designers Michele James and Apparatus, fireplace mantles adorned with bookended lilac marble slabs, and the hand-milled cherry wood shutters. Other quality features include updated electrical and plumbing systems, a new boiler and water heater, a video intercom and alarm system, and a state-of-the-art air conditioning system.
This stately townhouse sits on a quintessential park block near the Grand Army Plaza farmers market, Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Brooklyn Library, and a wealth of shops and restaurants along 7th Avenue.

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).
