ALL SHOWINGS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Park Slope 2-family Gem! Nestled in a row of historic colorful Park Slope frame houses, this legal 2-family house is a sun lover's delight, with surprises on each floor. It's currently configured as an upper owners' triplex with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with garden-level one bedroom rental but is easily used as a 4 bedroom 3 ½ bathroom single-family home. The house combines original detail with modern renovations. A gut renovation in 2006 took advantage of opening up every bit of space and letting in as much light as the house has to offer including an oversized top floor bedroom and bath - with skylights in every bedroom of the triplex and a hallway skylight too. The Parlor Floor entrance leads to an open-plan living room, formal dining room and eat-in kitchen that is perfect for entertaining! The living room has a wood-burning brick-fronted fireplace, original heart pine floors and 9'7" ceilings. The formal dining room has oversized built-in book shelves and leads right into the eat-in kitchen. The perpetually sunny eat-in kitchen features a Viking Pro convection stove and hood, marble countertops, work-island with storage, Bosch dishwasher, Fisher Paykel refrigerator and a large farmhouse sink. The Parlor Floor also has a full bathroom with shower as well as a hall coat closet. South-facing windows across the back kitchen wall and a door lead to the new double-wide stairs and down to the private beautifully landscaped South-facing garden with flagstone pavers. There are established oak hydrangea and lilac plantings and a stunning magnolia for yearly blooms. You'll enjoy entertaining year-round with outdoor dinners and gatherings here. As a bonus, there is a large free-standing shed in the back of the garden for bikes and garden supplies and sleds. The 2nd floor is a suite of front and back bedrooms with a large connecting room that has a multitude of uses - playroom, office, sitting room...you choose. Each bedroom is the full-width of the house and each can accommodate a king-sized bed with ease. The front Primary Bedroom has 3 oversized windows and a skylight as well as a brick-front wood-burning fireplace, 2 closets and vaulted ceilings as well as original floors. The back south-facing bedroom also has a skylight, 2 generous closets and room for desk and seating. There is a large full bathroom with tub and pedestal sink as well as a full-sized stacked vented gas washer/dryer in a separate closet. The surprise of this special house is that the top floor was renovated as a large sunny oversized-bedroom with ½ bath and skylight. It's a glorious private bedroom or a magnificent art studio - you can have a king-sized bed and room to spare. You can potentially turn the ½ bath into a full bath - check with your architect. On the garden level there is a charming 1 bedroom rental with private entrances from the street and to the garden. There is an updated eat-in kitchen with lots of cabinetry, Kitchen-Aid refrigerator, dishwasher and electric stove. The entire unit was recently repainted. There are well-preserved original tin-ceilings throughout the apartment and separate garden access for yourself or your tenants. The mechanicals are in excellent condition and include solar panels installed in 2017 to save energy/money. The gas furnace was replaced in 2010, and the hot water heater is 5 years old. The windows throughout the house are double-glazed and both roofs were re-silvered recently. The location is perfection - just 4 blocks from Prospect Park and in the heart of South Park Slope - you'll love all the stores and restaurants nearby -- Bar Crudo, Chela, Fonda and the impossible-to-resist Winner bakery! There are two YMCA locations are within a few blocks. as well as the fantastic neighborhood vibe! Nearby F, G, and R trains give easy subway access to Manhattan.
