4,000 sf SINGLE FAMILY TOWNHOUSE. AVAILABLE IMMEDIATELY

Set on one of Park Slope's most coveted blocks, this stunning 4,000 square foot limestone townhouse seamlessly blends timeless architectural details with high-end modern amenities. Originally designed by renowned Brooklyn architect Axel Hedman, this single-family residence offers an ideal layout with the living room, formal dining room, and kitchen all on one expansive parlor floor.

The gracious double parlor features impeccably preserved details including intricate parquet inlay floors, original mantles, and a striking pier mirror. The formal dining room continues the home's historic charm, while the thoughtfully renovated kitchen is a true chef's dream. Highlights include Carrara marble walls, soapstone countertops, radiant heated flooring, built-in sound system, and top-of-the-line appliances including a La Cornue five-burner range with double oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher. Glass double doors lead to a spacious, private Ipe deck complete with a custom awning, lush plantings, dedicated gas line for the grill, and ample space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The upper two floors feature four well-proportioned bedrooms and two exquisitely renovated bathrooms. One bath is clad in elegant Blue Celeste marble and includes a spa-style shower, while the other serves as a true spa retreat-featuring book-matched marble slab walls, a skylight over the deep soaking tub, curved glass shower enclosure, heated floors, and a towel warmer.

The fully renovated English basement offers additional living and recreation space, complete with a luxurious bathroom with a steam shower and a custom laundry area with soapstone countertops. At the front of the basement, an excavated space has been transformed into a private in-home gym.

Additional upgrades include a new boiler, updated electrical throughout, 3-zone central air conditioning, and energy-efficient replacement windows. Just one block from Prospect Park, this exceptional residence offers the perfect blend of historic character and contemporary comfort in the heart of Park Slope.
