Is the view from the roof of this $1.45M Park Slope brownstone condo worth the four-flight walk up?

On one of the Brooklyn neighborhood’s prettiest streets, this Park Slope condominium on the top floor of a 1920 townhouse boasts Statue of Liberty views, a private rooftop, and the kind of interior updates that bring out the best in a pre-war home. Asking $1,450,000, the two-bedroom walk-up apartment at 153 Garfield Place has a railroad layout, which adds charm–if not convenience. For the latter, look to the home’s central air conditioning, washer/dryer, and custom storage.
The sun-filled south-facing living room is blessed with 12-foot ceilings, a decorative fireplace and an exposed brick wall. In the dining room is a wall of custom built-in storage cabinets, leaving plenty of room for your dinner guests.
The kitchen features worktops of white marble, and white custom millwork. Sleek appliances include a Fisher Paykel refrigerator, a Bosch dishwasher and oven, topped by a Wolf induction cooktop. Abstract-block stairs lead from the kitchen to the rooftop. One of the home’s two full baths is just outside the kitchen.
The primary bedroom is framed by bespoke bookshelves, large closets and a hidden desk for home office functionality. The back bedroom–accessed through the primary bedroom–has more floor-to-ceiling closet space. A second full bath features a deep soaking tub–and a washer/dryer.
Up a sculptured staircase is a rooftop space with inspiring Statue of Liberty views–with roof rights included. This brownstone aerie sits atop a pet-friendly boutique condominium residence with eight units on four floors.
