Nestled near Prospect Park on a leafy South Slope block, this artfully renovated two-family townhouse blends historic Brooklyn brownstone character with modern architectural restraint. Featuring a three bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath owner’s triplex above a high-income full-floor garden rental, the home offers versatility, income potential, and tranquil indoor-outdoor living...a soulful retreat in one of Brooklyn’s most coveted neighborhoods.
Artfully reimagined yet deeply connected to its original character, this South Slope townhouse balances organic texture with contemporary calm. Comprising a three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath owner’s triplex above a full-floor garden apartment, it invites both sanctuary and possibility.
A home that captures both the spirit and substance of South Slope: crafted, soulful, and enduring.
Warmth, Light & Architectural Texture
The owner’s triplex opens to a full-floor great room...open, luminous, and grounded by exposed brick, architectural timber, and wide-plank flooring. A building-width kitchen defines the center of the home with custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and generous workspace. Distilled to its essentials, the layout emphasizes scale, light, and flow.
Double doors extend to a raised deck overlooking a private, sunlit southern garden, a natural extension of the living space, equally suited for morning stillness or summer gatherings.
Spacious Private Quarters & Creative Flexibility
Upstairs, two serene bedrooms evoke calm and continuity, including a two-room primary suite with dressing area and washer/dryer. The second bedroom, once two smaller rooms, offers functional scale and easy adaptability.
Two skylit baths, one ensuite to the primary, are finished in warm, tactile materials and a soothing, spa-like palette that invites exhale.
Above, a vaulted atelier crowns the home: a luminous, open sanctuary with skylight and outdoor access. Currently configured as a spacious third bedroom, it’s equally compelling as an artist’s studio, yoga retreat, or workspace in the treetops.
A private cellar accessible from the triplex provides abundant storage and everyday functionality without interrupting the home’s serenity or flow.
Income-Producing Garden Apartment
The full-floor garden-level apartment mirrors the home’s warmth and charm. A two-room studio with its own laundry and private outdoor access, it serves as an inviting guest suite, home office, or reliable source of rental income.
Neighborhood & Lifestyle
Situated steps from the 6/15 Green Community Garden and a short distance to Prospect Park, this residence sits at the intersection of nature, neighborhood, and creative energy. Within a few blocks, local favorites like Piccoli Trattoria, Lore, Java, and OS Café capture the area’s warm, unhurried charm. Independent vendors, wine bars, and organic grocers line the avenues, while Prospect Park offers endless space to breathe, wander, and recharge.
The F, G, and R trains...just minutes away at 15th Street - Prospect Park and Prospect Avenue - provide easy access to the rest of Brooklyn and Manhattan.
