With a PRIVATE GARDEN measuring over 500 sq. ft, gorgeous woodwork and built-ins throughout, a huge custom kitchen, a sprawling primary bedroom, and an in-unit washer and dryer, this lovely home offers fantastic proportions, tons of charm and the outdoor space everyone dreams of. On tree-lined St. Johns Place in the North Slope, perfectly situated near Prospect Park and Grand Army Plaza, this five unit-coop is lovingly maintained and centrally located.

The cheery living room looks out onto the beautifully landscaped south-facing garden. With a deep border of planting beds, a brick patio, and tons of room for outdoor furniture, the garden adds another room to this home for many months of the year. Adjacent to the living room, framed by built-in cabinetry, glass transoms and sliding glass doors, the second bedroom, which could also make a great home office, leads out to the garden. Custom blinds can be closed for privacy, or leave them open and let the southern light pour in.

The large kitchen centers around a long stone peninsula complete with a breakfast bar. The custom solid wood cabinetry is wonderfully designed with tons of storage and work space, including a lighted display cabinet. An antique range is cleverly tucked within the opening of the original hearth, while the dishwasher and fridge are stainless steel. The dining area perfectly balances the kitchen with plenty of room for a large table-it is easy to imagine entertaining in this lovely open space. The bathroom is home to the stacked washer and dryer and boasts floor to ceiling shelving.

Down the hall, nicely separated from the main living space, the lovely primary bedroom is expansive and starts with a massive, custom walk-in closet to the left. Gorgeous bay windows are bordered by window seats which offer great storage below, while the opposite wall features floor-to-ceiling custom built-ins with abundant cabinetry and shelving. The room is truly king-sized. With a little reconfiguration, an en-suite second bath could easily be added (with board approval, of course!) Throughout the apartment you'll find thoughtful lighting design, hardwood floors, including a parquet floor with walnut inlay in the primary bedroom, and high ceilings-this is not your usual dark and low garden apartment!

One of five apartments in this stunning, landmark 22' wide brownstone, the building also offers storage and bike storage in the basement. The location is fantastic-a few blocks from Prospect Park, near all Park Slope and Prospect Heights has to offer, and around the corner from the 7th Avenue B/Q stop and the Grand Army Plaza, 2/3 stop. Pets are allowed on approval.
