Property Details
Description
Mint-condition 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom floor-through condominium unit on prime South Slope park block. Located just one flight up from the stoop, this sunny, south-facing home recently finished up a complete overhaul adding such modern comforts as a stacked washer dryer, a professionally designed kitchen and custom built-ins throughout while maintaining original details like exposed brick, tin ceilings, stain glass, crown and baseboard moldings and updated and restored pine floors. The expansive windowed kitchen offers floor to ceiling maple cabinetry, stainless steel Bosch appliances, a double door refrigerator with freezer drawer, quartz countertops, open shelving, a deep sink and excellent storage. The unit's versatile layout allows for multiple options, such as separate bedroom setups in the front and rear made possible by the custom living room built-in complete with fully concealed Murphy bed and pocket doors. Utilize the rear bedroom as a home office off your primary suite or as another sleeping area, completing a three-bedroom setup. Unwind in the windowed bathroom with original claw-foot tub surrounded by clean white tile and an updated pedestal sink. The separate dining area easily allows for seating for eight or more and provides a nice separation of space from the living room and kitchen. Gaze out your south-facing bay windows onto leafy treetop views and enjoy one of the most serene and quintessential blocks in Park Slope. Pet-friendly and located half a block from Prospect Park, this superb apartment is in close proximity to the F and G trains, as well as to the wonderful eateries, pubs, grocery stores and locally owned shops that make the South Slope both a vibrant destination and sought-after neighborhood. Stroller parking available in the foyer and open storage is in the cellar.
