In a four-unit townhouse in the heart of Park Slope, offering 2165 square feet of living space, this sprawling, renovated and well-designed DUPLEX apartment offers fantastic proportions and a wonderful flow on two full floors, PLUS a PRIVATE GARDEN.

The expansive open kitchen, living and dining areas are framed by west-facing bay windows which brings in gorgeous afternoon light. Soaring 12' ceilings grace the entire parlor floor, while a working fireplace is the perfect centerpiece of the living room. The thoughtfully designed kitchen offers tons of storage and workspace with custom double cabinets, Carrera marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and added touches such as a pot-filler over the range and a large peninsula which easily accommodates seating for four.Down the hall, conveniently separated from the living space, are two well-proportioned bedrooms and the main bath. The spacious primary bedroom has a gracious marble en suite bath with a deep soaking tub and classic fixtures. The second bedroom is also sizable with a large closet. Both bedrooms have tall, oversized east-facing windows overlooking the serene garden. The main bath is also well-appointed with ample storage and a modern design. A staircase leads to the enormous lower level. Open and airy with 9' ceilings and a wall of closets, including the tucked away in-unit washer/dryer, it's the perfect family room/den, home office AND home gym--it's that big! Through French doors is the king-sized third bedroom area. A wall of closets and built-ins plus a half-bath make this a peaceful and private retreat. Throughout the apartment you'll find tons of storage and closet space, hardwood floors, a fully wired surround sound system, and split system AC units. Additional caged storage is right out the door of the lower level. Lastly, the back garden provides the slice of outdoor space we all crave. Green your thumb, grill, dine el fresco or simply enjoy the sun in your own outdoor oasis. Wonderfully located on tree-lined 6th avenue, convenient to all the amenities on 9th Street and 7th Avenue, three blocks to Prospect Park, and near multiple subway lines, the location is fantastic. Pet friendly with low monthlies, this condo is the perfect townhouse alternative.
