You'll enjoy relaxing in the spacious living room with its gorgeous exposed brick, decorative fireplace mantel, and convenient custom shelving.


Entertain to your heart's content the dining room is picture perfect and provides an elegant yet homey space to dine. It has a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace, with exposed brick and three entry points.


The windowed eat-in-kitchen with two exposures is a place where the family can gather and enjoy a meal, do homework or play games at the table. Beyond spacious, it has original tin ceilings, terracotta floors, and a decorative backsplash with hand painted tiles from Portugal. There is an enormous pantry as well.


The first floor has a full laundry room with plenty of storage. And there is a pretty white bathroom on this level too.


Easy access from the kitchen to the backyard allows you to have the outdoors at your fingertips you can dine on the lovely deck, garden, and there is also a pool for your swimming pleasure.


The second floor is currently set up with 3 bedrooms (2 of them expansive in size). Need a 4th bedroom? It's easy to create a 4 bedroom, by splitting one of them into two. (Please see the alternate floorplans.) It also has a lovely bathroom with a clawfoot tub.


The master bedroom is sublime. It's a combination of two rooms and a true retreat. You'll have room for luxuriating, inclusive of a sitting room and/or a home office all in onethat's for you to decide. Plus it has two exposures, and tons of closet space. The back bedroom is huge, with the original tin ceilings and it has closets that span each side of the room. This can be split in half (see the alternate floorplan) providing a 4th bedroom. The middle bedroom can hold a twin bed, a dresser, and a desk.


The first floor has a convenient hallway, that separates the living room and dining room. And it provides access to the windowed, above grade basement, as well as another point of egress. Easily finished, the basement would provide a great recreation room. The mechanicals are in good shape too.


A botanical lover's delight it has not only a large backyard but also a huge front yard 20' long. It's easy to be a gardener here.


Please note: this home is spacious as is, yet there is additional FAR due to its large lot. This provides the potential to add/build approximately 1600 square feet of space. Consult with your architect for specifics.


Superbly located in South Park Slope, it's close to F/G/R trains, Prospect Park, Prospect Park West and all amenities on 7th Ave, Prospect Park West and 5th Ave. And, it's down the block from P.S. 10. This won't last.
