Description

This charming and inviting duplex condominium is located at 497 12th Street in prime South Park Slope, just a half block from Prospect Park. Featuring 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, 2 distinct living areas and a private garden, this lovely parlor-level home has been renovated throughout and is loaded with original pre-war detail including tin ceilings, exposed brick, crown, baseboard and picture moldings and original pine floors. The south-facing living room, drenched in sunlight with its oversized windows and 910 ceilings, leads directly into an open kitchen and dining area. With cherry cabinets and granite countertops, the windowed kitchen has generous counter and storage space, plus a suite of full-size stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher. The stacked washer and vented dryer is conveniently tucked into the kitchen area as well. Down the hall, you will find the sizable den, second bedroom overlooking the garden and windowed bathroom with Jacuzzi tub. The den features a beautiful built-in buffet with glass doors and provides access to the 260-square-foot private garden, which was recently redone entirely with ipe fencing, bluestone pavers, a wall of growing ivy and water and electric hookups. The airy and spacious lower level is currently being used as a master suite and has a custom walk-in closet with dressing area and a half bathroom. This 8-unit boutique condominium has low monthly carrying charges and is pet-friendly. There is additional laundry in the cellar, as well as free, allocated common storage and open bike storage, plus convenient stroller parking in the foyer. Ideally situated on a lovely tree-lined street just minutes from Prospect Park, 497 12th Street is three blocks to the F and G trains and close to a variety of restaurants, shops and neighborhood conveniences.
