About This Home
As of May 2025Awash in gorgeous light and beautiful original details throughout – coupled with thoughtful contemporary improvements – this 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom duplex with private outdoor space and in-unit laundry in a striking North Slope brownstone is a true showstopper, checking every item on your wishlist!
A full-scale renovation of the entire home within the past few years incorporated a multitude of new additions, including: all new electrical wiring, plumbing and insulation throughout; kitchen, bathrooms, appliances, flooring, HVAC split systems, radiators, decking and railings on the private terrace, among others.
Just one floor up from the parlor level and facing the back of the building, this quiet apartment overlooks tranquil gardens and feels like an aerie with open sky and verdant treetop views. Showcasing generous space and gracious flow, it features over 10 ft ceilings on both levels and oversized windows with southeastern exposure.
The immaculately maintained and bright living/dining area provides a warm entrance to the home and is anchored by a stunning bay window with stained glass and banquette seating. Immaculate pre-war millwork – including moldings, wainscoting and window and door casings – as well as a painted brick wall and working wood burning fireplace, also highlight the space.
The stylized kitchen has ample custom built white cabinetry; built-in pantry; Caesarstone counters, dark subway tile backsplash; and a stainless suite of appliances and wine fridge, including Viking, SubZero and Samsung. A large terrace off the kitchen ideally integrates indoor and outdoor living. A powder room and large storage closets round out this floor.
Located on the upper level and removed from the living area for added privacy are the home’s spacious and tranquil bedrooms, each with abundant closet space. Also located on this level: a large bath well-appointed with warm herringbone and penny round tiling; radiant floor heating; walk-in shower; and modern vanity. Additionally, the home has a convenient in-unit washer/dryer.
This self-managed 5-unit co-op offers additional storage in the basement and is pet friendly. Among the building's recent capital improvements are: new roof and rear exterior refurbishment (2024), new brownstone steps and new roof on alcove (2023), new LPC compliant front door (2022), and new boiler (2019).
Ideally located in the heart of Park Slope, just one block from Prospect Park and moments to Grand Army Plaza, the green market, Brooklyn Public Library, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Brooklyn Museum, the 2, 3, B, and Q trains, and all the neighborhood's vibrant offerings.
