    What's special

    AT THE TOP OF THE PARK Located in a prime section of Park Slope just off Prospect Park West on venerable Second Street, this four story townhouse has been wonderfully maintained by its current owners. For location, detail and condition, this park block home could no better define the ultimate Brooklyn lifestyle. Presently used as a one family, this townhouse can by easily converted to a owner's triplex with garden access over a high income rental. (See floor plan for optional configuration). Perfectly located on the garden level is the elegantly designed and renovated kitchen with abundant prep space and two defined sitting areas. The front room on this floor could be used for more intimate dining or as family space. The spacious parlor level with incredible detail provides lovely northern exposures to the limestone townhouses along Second Street with side views leading to the park. The rear room with sunny southern views (currently used as an office) can equally accommodate a spacious galley kitchen with optional half bath. The focal point of the home is the spacious garden with vine covered arbor and bluestone pavers---so rare for park block houses and the views are equally stunning from both the garden and parlor floors. The upper two floors of this townhouse provide five bedrooms and two renovated baths. A washer/dryer laundry closet on the top level with period skylight. One might consider a terrace addition to the master floor with treetop views of Prospect Park! Abundant storage possibilities in the lower level basement which could equally house a wine cellar or additional recreational space. All utilities have been updated and perfectly located in the 321 school district and so close to Poly Prep's lower school.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
