With a unique 20.5-foot width and four stories of beautifully preserved architectural details, this single-family home has been lovingly maintained by the same family for 54 years. As you approach the classic Brooklyn stoop, the grand entry door invites you into a stunning parlor floor with nearly 12-foot ceilings and large bay windows that flood the space with natural light.

The garden-level kitchen is generously sized, ready for use or easily customizable to fit your preferences.

While it feels like an escape, Flatbush Avenue and the B/Q/2/3 trains to Manhattan are just around the corner. On the second floor, the king-size light filled primary bedroom offers 10-foot ceilings, decorative moldings, and a beautiful stone fireplace. The rear sun kissed bedroom room paired windowed bathroom on this floor has excellent potential for a luxurious remodel into a 4-piece suite.

The home features forced air heating, offering the perfect foundation for a central heating and cooling upgrade. Located on tree-lined St Johns Place, just above 7th Avenue, this home is steps away from some of Park Slope's finest offerings. Renowned restaurants such as Olmstead, Fausto, and Sofreh are nearby, and you’re just over a block from Grand Army Plaza and Prospect Park, providing endless opportunities for recreation and leisure. This is a rare opportunity to own a well-maintained brownstone with a rich family history.

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).
