This beautifully renovated three-bedroom, two and a half bathroom apartment occupies three levels of a landmarked Romanesque Revival brownstone, originally built in 1888 by renowned architect-builder Edward B. Sturges. Nestled in the heart of Park Slope's historic district, this meticulously restored townhouse seamlessly blends period charm with modern convenience. The parlor level has retained many of the original architectural features that define brownstone living, such as soaring 12 foot ceilings, crown moldings, ornate mahogany fireplaces, original working pocket doors, parquet flooring and so much more. The parlor living and dining rooms are very generously sized, allowing for large scale entertaining and many seating grouping possibilities. A powder room is tucked away under the stair. The newly renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, island with seating and top of line appliances. The open kitchen has a tall glass door to the roof deck overlooking your private yard a perfect respite to enjoy your morning coffee. The garden level offers three bedrooms, two large bathrooms (each with double vanities), stacked laundry, and a large entryway with ample built-in storage. A private gated entry under the stoop offers convenient bicycle storage. The spacious primary bedroom features a South facing bay window and is rich with original details, including wood molding, wainscotting, a picture rail, wood fireplace and parquet floors. An Elfa built-in closet offers over 20' of customizable hanging, and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with dolomite marble tiles and premium Toto and Hansgrohe fixtures provide the perfect sanctuary. Downstairs in the lower level you will find a huge open recreation space, ideal for a family room, play room or home gym, two large storage rooms, and a nook for an office. The multifunctional yard offers a plethora of uses with planting beds, a bluestone patio and a grassy turf area for active use and easy maintenance. The yard is surrounded by mature trees in neighboring yards. Short walk to the B/Q and 2/3 trains. Pets are subject to approval. Rented by owner that lives in the neighborhood.
