Welcome to unit 1L at 499 12th Street, a sprawling parlor-level two bedroom / two bath co-op apartment with a private garden, located on one of the most gorgeous tree lined park blocks in all of Park Slope. Being offered for the first time in over two decades, this apartment is a unique find and presents a rare opportunity to purchase an apartment with character, craftsmanship and original architectural detail, making this a very special place to call home. From the moment you walk through the entry foyer you'll be impressed by the tall ceilings and the sheer size of the space. Toward the front of the apartment you'll find the spacious open kitchen / dining / living space with windows onto 12th St. The tastefully updated kitchen is practical and efficient with stainless steel appliances including dishwasher, under cabinet lighting, and an abundance of storage and countertop space. The adjacent dining room flows seamlessly into the living room: both with parquet floors, original detail moldings and impeccably maintained tin ceilings -- over 9 feet tall! -- which can be found throughout the entire home. Heading toward the rear of the apartment you'll find the large primary bedroom featuring custom built-in cabinetry and a large closet area with your own in-unit stacked and vented washer/dryer, as well as a windowed ensuite bath overlooking the private garden. Adjacent there's a second living space featuring more built-in cabinetry and shelves, and a back door for garden access; this space could be used as a den, library, home gym, game room, hobby room, etc... The second bedroom, accessed through the den and overlooking the garden, boasts tons of natural light and garden views. And speaking of the garden: this private, professionally landscaped patio has ample room for dining and lounging as well as zen moments with trees, flowers, sun and sky providing seasons of enjoyment. 499 12th Street is a self managed 8 unit co-op which offers bicycle parking and open basement storage for all shareholders. It's located less than 1/2 block to Prospect Park and only a few blocks from Bartel-Pritchard Square where you can enjoy a year-round farmer's market two days per week. Local favorites include Ottava, Zatar, Provini, Giovanni's, Winner, Ladybird Bakery, and the newly-opened Pasta Louise. The building is also centrally located to all of the shops and dining on both Prospect Park West and 7th Aves, Nitehawk Cinema, and the Park Slope Armory YMCA. It's only 3 blocks to the F/G trains at either 15th St or 7th Ave for a quick commute to Manhattan and other popular Brooklyn destinations. Cat friendly only.
