This $6.5M triple-bay brownstone is ready for instant Park Slope living

This 1899 townhouse at 545 Third Street in Park Slope is ready for Brooklyn brownstone living without the hassle of renovation. The four-story home has the preserved 19th-century details buyers crave–pocket doors, wainscoting, stained glass, and molding–along with modern design flourishes that enhance its historic charm. Asking $6,450,000, the townhouse has bay windows on all four floors and outdoor space in the form of a private bedroom deck and a leafy back garden.

At the garden level, the front room offers an elegant formal dining space featuring William Yeoward English wallcovering that complements the room’s detailed millwork. Next is a garden-facing custom eat-in kitchen anchored by a waterfall island of book-matched granite. This expansive, flexible kitchen is framed by cast-concrete flooring, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, a ledge stone backsplash, and a rear wall of glass that leads to the back garden.

High-end appliances include a massive 48-inch SubZero fridge, a six-burner Wolf range, a Bosch electric oven, a Miele dishwasher and a warming drawer. Also on this floor are a laundry room with space for garden prep and tools, and a powder room.

Beneath 12-foot ceilings, the parlor floor is a suitably elegant space consisting of a glamorous living room, a middle parlor/den, and a back office. The living room features hand-painted Gracie wallcoverings offset by restored wood fretwork and parquet tile hardwood floors. The den offers a wet bar, backlit leaded-glass cabinetry, and a gas fireplace. At the back is a cozy office with a garden view.

On the next floor is the primary bedroom, clad in silk wallcovering and matching drapery and served by a full wall of closets. The attendant bath features a double marble vanity, a step-in shower, and a free-standing bathtub.

The rear bedroom has a gas fireplace. This floor is graced by a large deck overlooking the garden below, accessed from the back bedroom.

On the home’s top floor, illuminated by a stained-glass skylight, are two more bedrooms. The front-facing chamber has an ensuite bath with a dramatic green resin vanity and a skylight. At the rear, another bedroom has a wall of closets and use of a second bathroom.

The back garden is landscaped, paved, and ready for summer. This verdant entertaining space features a gas grill surrounded by planted beds, a stone wall, and iron fencing. This move-in-ready home occupies a prime North Slope spot just a block from Prospect Park.
