A Refined Park Slope Classic Just moments from Prospect Park, this expansive three-bedroom, two-bath residence occupies the third floor of a distinguished turn-of-the-century cooperative designed by noted architect Louis Bonert. Spanning almost 25 feet wide and 82 feet long this home is gracious in scale and rich in character offering an elegant balance of preserved architectural detail and thoughtful modern enhancements, all bathed in beautiful natural light. The stunning entry foyer is framed by stained glass, original millwork, and period hardware, setting a tone of timeless craftsmanship, while also offering discreet additional storage. The oversized south-facing living room and adjacent library are both luminous and inviting, anchored by a decorative fireplace and custom built-in bookshelves and cabinetry. The span of windows not only offers a breathtaking amount of natural light, but also picturesque views of Prospect Park and the best of Park Slope architecture. Throughout the space the intricate wood floors and original oak, cherry, and maple ornamental woodwork lend warmth, texture, and a sense of grandeur that is so rare. At the heart of the home, a formal dining room connects seamlessly to both the living room and kitchen through original pocket doors, creating an effortless flow ideal for both everyday living and elegant entertaining. The windowed kitchen is as functional as it is refined, featuring marble countertops, abundant cabinetry, high-end appliances, and a dedicated pantry closet. Privately situated at the rear of the residence, the primary bedroom is a true retreat, featuring a decorative fireplace, original wood details, and a serene en-suite bath with marble finishes, a walk-in shower, and an in-unit washer and vented gas dryer. Two additional bedrooms are complemented by a beautifully finished hall bath with marble flooring, a soaking tub, and elegant detailing throughout. A generous walk-in hall closet adds exceptional storage, while a separate home office offers remarkable flexibility, providing a quiet space ideal for remote work or creative pursuits. One of just four residences in an impeccably maintained building, this home features upgraded mini-split heating and cooling units in every room, installed in 2022. The building's common areas retain their historic elegance, including stained-glass windows on each landing, all of which have been thoughtfully refreshed. Additional storage is located in the basement. Perfectly positioned near Grand Army Plaza and Prospect Park, the home is moments from the Brooklyn Museum, Botanic Garden, beloved neighborhood destinations along Vanderbilt and Seventh Avenue, and offers convenient access to the 2/3 and B/Q trains.
