Description
Timeless Sophistication on Garfield Place
Discover the perfect harmony of historic character and modern refinement in this impeccably preserved two-family brick townhouse. Situated on one of Park Slope's most coveted blocks, this residence offers a rare opportunity to own a home in exemplary condition, featuring a versatile three-bedroom owner's duplex(originally 2BRs) and a high-income garden rental.
The Owner's Duplex:
Now thoughtfully reimagined as a three-bedroom sanctuary, the duplex offers a seamless flow of space and light. The parlor level welcomes you with soaring ceilings and original exposed brick, anchored by a gracefully maintained chef's kitchen featuring:
Artisanal Finishes: A substantial 2-inch Carrera marble island with matching counters and backsplash.
High-End Integration: A full Viking appliance set(stove, dishwasher, refrigerator) and an integrated stainless microwave drawer.
Classic Details: A traditional farmhouse sink, abundant
The living area, centered around a stately wood-burning fireplace, leads to a private terrace and stairs down to a lush backyard oasis-a peaceful retreat complete with a mature, towering tree. A chic marble powder room completes this level.
The upper floor has been cleverly configured to accommodate three bedrooms. The primary suite remains a true retreat, featuring an expansive walk-in closet (versatile enough for a home office) and a built-in safe. The primary bath is beautifully appointed, offering a deep soaking tub, a separate rain-shower stall, and elegant marble tiling under a bright skylight.
The Garden Residence & Potential
The garden-level apartment is presented in pristine order, offering a spacious one-bedroom layout with exposed brick, a third working wood-burning fireplace, and direct backyard access. This level includes its own full-size washer and dryer, making it an ideal high-end rental or guest suite.
Opportunity for Growth: With additional FAR (approx. 500 sq. ft.), there is significant potential to further expand the home's footprint to suit your long-term vision.
An Unbeatable Location
Perfectly positioned just off 5th Avenue's "Restaurant Row," you are moments away from the neighborhood's best dining and boutiques.
Recreation: A short stroll to the verdant expanses of Prospect Park.
Connectivity: Unrivaled access to the R train and the major transportation hub at Atlantic Terminal (2, 3, 4, 5, B, Q, and LIRR).
A rare find in Park Slope-a home of substance and style, curated with care and ready for its next chapter.
