878 President Street offers the rare opportunity to experience the elegance of a stunning semi-attached 20'53' Park Slope townhouse, moments from Prospect Park. This meticulously redone 2-family home is all you could want, featuring a fabulous 4 bedroom, 3 and a half bath owner's triplex, and a great income producing 1 bedroom, 1 and a half bathroom garden apartment. Simply open up the double doors to the apartment and this property seamlessly converts to a single-family dream home!
Enter on the parlor level through a classic set of original wood doors where you will find the spacious living room complete with high ceilings, a marble gas fireplace, hardwood floors and a beautiful oversized window with built in seating. Additional east-facing windows - a rare feature among Park Slope brownstones - ensure abundant natural light throughout the home. Past the living room is an expansive eat-in chef's kitchen featuring multiple sinks with Grohe fixtures, La Cornue oven, Fisher Paykel and Miele dishwashers (one in the main kitchen and one in the galley-style scullery), built-in Wolf microwave, built-in Miele Coffee Maker, and a lovely gas fireplace. Light fills the space from South-facing floor-to-ceiling windows at the rear of the house. The kitchen opens onto a spacious glass-floored deck, which flows down to the back garden. The deck features an outdoor kitchen with a built-in Wolf grill.
The primary bedroom suite on the third floor is a sanctuary of luxury with a beautiful curved-glass bay window with built-in seating overlooking historic President Street. A large walk through closet leads to the oversized and well-appointed primary bathroom with soaking tub, Mr. Steam shower, dual sinks and a wall of closets.
The fourth floor has a wonderful layout. Two bedrooms face the garden and share a hall bathroom. The large third bedroom with ensuite bathroom is currently used as the playroom. A full-size vented washer/dryer is also found on this level.
The garden apartment is very inviting with an oversized window and wall of built-ins. The large bedroom leads out to the blissful backyard patio enveloped by lush greenery.
The basement features a beautifully designed wine cellar, and offers additional laundry facilities, great storage and the home's mechanicals. 878 President Street boasts new electric, plumbing, central HVAC system, and Control 4 Smart Home integration, this home offers modern convenience at every turn. Situated in the heart of Park Slope, within the original Park Slope Historic District, this home is moments away from Grand Army Plaza, Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Union Market, and access to the Q/B and 2/3 subway lines.
