The garden level features a top of the line chefs kitchen complete with Viking stove, Viking dishwasher and Subzero refrigerator. The carrara marble bathroom and its finishes create a cohesive story as it relates to the finish work in the triplex above. Off the bedroom is the efficient garden with blue-stone pavers and plantings. Other creature comforts include: 3-zone central air conditioning, gas heat, controllable via your smart phone. Turn of the century highlights include: Original quarter-sawn white Oak pocket doors, Jefferson pocket shutters, five spectacular fireplace mantels, pier mirror, and inlayed flooring all in mint condition. The open plan cellar is currently unfinished but could make a wonderful wine cellar and home gym. 3rd Street continues to stand out as the most desirable street in Park Slope with its wide boulevard feel and enormous trees that canopy this glorious home and its neighbors alike. The extra deep front garden is a standout with lovely plantings. Lastly, this home is currently in District 15 and zoned for a popular elementary school. This home will be shown by appointment.
