189 PARK Place #2

Enjoy the ambiance of a trip back in time in this spectacular and wide parlor floor coop with both a private deck AND a huge private garden, but sacrifice none of the conveniences of modern living. This spectacular home is located on a block that has been voted one of New York's "Best Blocks" in Time Out Magazine for over a decade. Tree-lined, quiet, and filled with majestic brownstones from Flatbush to Vanderbilt avenues, this special 25'-wide home is next to Prospect Park, major transportation hubs, and too many great amenities to count including schools, restaurants, shops, health clubs and grocery stores. Currently used as an oversized one bedroom with separate formal dining and living rooms, at over 1000 sq. ft inside it can also be converted to a two bedroom. Soaring ceilings with perfectly preserved wedding cake crown moldings, original plantation shutters on floor-to-ceiling windows, stunning inlaid floors, and three perfectly-preserved marble and wood mantles are just some of the historic details that will take your breath away. Juxtaposed with a newly renovated kitchen and bath, what more could you possibly ask for. Custom hand-made Arts and Crafts style cabinetry blends seamlessly with the original details and offers great storage and cooking surfaces for a real chef. Stainless Steel GE Monogram appliances are like-new and include a 5-burner stove, and a 42" fridge. Honed soapstone counters are durable, practical, and add an elegant rustic touch. Your very own in-unit Miele washer and dryer makes daily life super easy. A spa-like bathroom was recently renovated and includes oversized stone tiles, great storage, radiant heated floors and a deep soaking tub complete with glass enclosure. Only a handful of blocks in Brooklyn feature these extra deep gardens, so enjoy not only the best inside floor of a townhouse, but also one of the largest backyards! Easy to BBQ and dine on your deck, and then step down to your huge private backyard and experience all the joys of gardening and entertaining in an oversized private outdoor space complete with bluestone pavers in the middle and planting beds replete with lush perennial plantings around the perimeter. For your convenience, an environmentally-friendly rainwater irrigation system has been installed, in addition to composting bins and a new storage shed perfect to hold all of your gardening tools. Extremely well-maintained coop with a low maintenance. Pet friendly. Building also allows central AC to be installed and it is easy with your very own backyard easily accessible for the condensers. This is a gem not to be missed.
