Fully renovated 800 square foot garden apartment for rent in a restored 19th-century landmark brownstone in North Park Slope, Brooklyn. Available for immediate occupancy. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom garden-level Park Slope rental sits in a fully restored 4-story landmark brownstone on one of the most coveted tree-lined blocks in North Park Slope. The apartment offers the same high-end finish level as the upper triplex, at a scale and price that opens the property to a broader range of qualified renters seeking Park Slope brownstone living. The garden apartment is a true garden level just two steps down from the sidewalk, not a below-grade basement with 8-foot ceilings, oak hardwood flooring throughout, exposed original ceiling beams, and a decorative marble mantle. The apartment is configured as four rooms with dual east-west exposure, delivering natural light throughout the day and rear exposure to the east. The open kitchen features Calacatta quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, a Bertazzoni gas range, a Bosch dishwasher, and a counter-depth Summit refrigerator. Two well-proportioned bedrooms complete the layout: the primary bedroom is 120 square feet, and the second bedroom is 75 square feet. Both feature oak flooring and are positioned to maximize the apartment's dual east-west exposure. Two full bathrooms are finished in Porcelanosa tile, with Toto and Duravit toilets and Hansgrohe and Grohe fixtures. The bathroom finishes match the premium standard applied throughout the property. The garden apartment includes an exclusive 9 by 20 foot private patio for the tenant's sole use. A gas grill is permitted in the yard area. The garden tenant maintains the patio space. Systems include hydronic radiant floor heating, single-zone central air conditioning, an LG washer and dryer in unit, separately metered gas and electric, landmark-approved double-pane windows in the front, and triple-pane rear windows. Buzzer intercom and separate keyed entrance. Front garden bike storage. The apartment preserves original 19th-century architectural detail throughout exposed original ceiling beams, oak flooring, and a decorative marble mantle paired with modern fixtures and appliances that match the finish level of the upper triplex. 189 6th Avenue sits on one of North Park Slope's prettiest tree-lined blocks, steps from the restaurants and retail of 5th Avenue and 7th Avenue. Five minutes on foot to Prospect Park. Eight minutes to the Atlantic Avenue transit hub serving the 2, 3, 4, 5, B, D, N, Q, R, and Long Island Railroad. The 7th Avenue F and G station is also within walking distance. Zoned for P.S. 282; near Berkeley Carroll School. Walk Score 99. Lease terms: 12 to 24 months.
