About This Property

Enchanting 1,850sf upper duplex in an historic 1890's Park Slope mansion just a half block from Grand Army Plaza & Prospect Park. Literally above it all, this grand two bedroom with FDR (or three bedroom home without), two full baths and private deck provides its inhabitants with a sense of the grandeur of the past as well as the warm top floor charm and informality rarely found outside of a Katherine Hepburn film. The first level features a gorgeous detailed high ceilinged living room defined by its opulent arched window, mantle & mirror. There's an office or nursery, a newly done well appointed kitchen, FDR (or master bedroom) with marble mantle, and a restored Victorian bath. A beautiful & spacious South deck provides sun or shade depending on your mood and a lovely view of the rear gardens weeping down toward 7th Ave. The upper floor has the classic feel of a 19th Century Hamptons beach house (with the notable exception of the brand new designer bath & additional laundry room with full sized washer + dryer). Completing the picture are two large bedrooms and a storage closet large enough for steamer trunks and all sorts of gear. Utilities are included in the rent. There are three pre-installed AC's. Fios is in the building. This exceptional home is located on one of Park Slope's prettiest blocks and is near to all; multiple trains, exceptional public & privateschools (pre-K to upper), quality shops, stores, restaurants, food purveyors, clothiers, home design boutiques, The Brooklyn Museum, The Botanic Garden, The Public Library, and of course magnificent Prospect Park This is Park Slope living at its best, you'll be sure to see your neighbors at Saturday's Farmers Market in Grand Army Plaza.
