Property Description for 261 Garfield Place, 3
Nestled on one of Park Slope's most picturesque, tree-lined streets and just a single block from Prospect Park, Apartment 3 at 261 Garfield Place is an expansive four-bedroom, two-bathroom coop that embodies Brooklyn elegance with thoughtful modern updates. Four exposures flood the home with natural light throughout the day, illuminating exquisite original details-gorgeous oak moldings, pristine hardwood floors, and eye-catching stained glass that speaks to the home's rich architectural heritage.
The layout is graceful and versatile, with four generously proportioned bedrooms and a separate home office ideal for today's flexible lifestyle. The living and dining area is anchored by a stunning ventless fireplace and flows seamlessly into a fully renovated chef's kitchen outfitted with top-tier appliances, including a GE Cafe refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and a Liebherr wine fridge.
Retreat to the tranquil primary suite, complete with its own en-suite windowed bath and ample closet space. Three additional bedrooms (one currently used as the family/guest room) are all generously sized. Central air ensures year-round comfort, while the intelligent layout-with both formal and informal spaces-makes everyday living and entertaining a breeze. Additional features include in-unit washer/dryer and basement storage.
Located in prime north Park Slope, 261 Garfield Pl. represents iconic Park Slope at its best with its restaurants, cafes, shops, historic homes, and of course, Prospect Park, the Botanical Gardens, the Brooklyn Museum, Farmer's Market, and Grand Army Plaza all just a few blocks away. Close 2/3/B/Q/F/G trains.
261 Garfield Place is an 11 unit pet-friendly coop with excellent financials, no underlying mortgage, low maintenance and it has a live-in super. This is a rare opportunity to own a true slice of classic Brooklyn, reimagined for modern living. Currently zoned for PS 321.

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).
