About This Home
Stylish Condo Living in a Quintessential Park Slope Brownstone Setting - 561 5th Street. And it's currently zoned for PS 321!
Modern conveniences are mixed with touches of Old-World charm in this 2 Bed, 1 1/2 Bath, Garden Duplex on one of Park Slope's most coveted park blocks. Intelligently integrated into a classic 20' wide Italianate Brownstone, the sprawling first floor and lower level are built the full width of the building, providing you and yours ample room to live and grow.
It all starts with the wide-open Family Room: hardwood floors, crown molding, and a wood burning fireplace with original carved marble mantle lend the charm, while the triple faceted Bay Window let the light shine in. The formal dining area is here, conveniently located next to a pass-through galley kitchen featuring hardwood cabinets, black marble counters, and full-sized Stainless-Steel appliances -- perfect for entertaining guests or feeding the troops.
Secluded in the rear of the unit is the Primary Bedroom, a quiet oasis with two large windows and a windowed door overlooking your Private Garden, allowing light and air to waft through.
The garden itself is the true gem: basket-weave patterned bricks lead to flower beds brimming with annual flowers and shrubs, while two stately Cedar trees provide privacy and shade for outdoor dining, or quiet Sunday mornings sipping coffee.
The second bedroom is just down the hall: Queen-sized, it has tons of closets and garden views of its own. The Full Bath is on this floor as well, featuring a deep Jacuzzi tub along with subway tiles and pedestal sink, the latter paying homage to the building's historic past.
The second level is a great addition: your laundry is here, as well as a Half Bath. There's plenty of space for storage along with two large rooms to be used as a home office, children's art/playroom, recreation room, or a teenage grotto. Whatever you choose, the bonus space is here for your imagination. All this, plus there's a multi-zone climate control system throughout.
As mentioned, the location is sublime: Fifth Street on a park block right next to the Crown Jewel of Brooklyn - Prospect Park, where morning walks and summer concerts await. Currently zoned for PS 321, it's close to everything Park Slope is known for. The fresh air markets at Grand Army Plaza and Pritchard Square are both within reach. Incredible world class dining is all around... Pasta Louise, Fonda, Zatar, the list goes on. Local favorite Nighthawk Cinema is within an easy stroll. Transportation is a snap, as the subway is a short 3 blocks away.
