34 Park Place, Brooklyn, NY 11217

Property Description

34 Park Place is your opportunity to live in a perfectly renovated, 20-foot wide landmarked four floor townhouse in idyllic Park Slope. Lovingly refurbished and revamped by renowned Sherman Architects with four bedrooms, including a primary bedroom floor with a private terrace, three outdoor spaces, a dream kitchen, and 4-zone heat & air conditioning, this home checks every box. The parlor floor seamlessly marries the old and the new. Original crown moldings, plasterwork, and mahogany windows were revitalized, as were the original trumeau mirror and wood burning fireplace in the living room. Cased openings were widened to suit the modern homeowner’s needs. New, white oak chevron flooring is a contemporary nod to a more historic herringbone pattern and original pocket doors were restored to separate the living room and kitchen area. The kitchen, straight out of a magazine, is as functional as it is stunning. Custom floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and pantry, an eight-burner dual gas and electric Viking stove, custom vent hood, Sub Zero fridge, Waterworks faucets and pot filler, and wet bar with hammered nickel sink and Marvel wine fridge are just some of its features. A gorgeous gold Calcutta marble tops the island, while a soft gray quartz makes the rest of the countertops durable. The kitchen features a charming built-in banquette, and a hidden jewel box powder room cut with the same slab of gold Calcutta. The original back windows were removed and reused, making way for a gorgeous wall of custom Marvin sliding windows and doors, all leading to the ipe deck. The light that streams in throughout the day from the South-West orientation is breathtaking, and the setup allows for seamless indoor/outdoor dining and entertaining. Up the brand new staircase, with refurbished, original balusters, the white oak flooring continues, and you are met at the top of the stairs by a beautiful marble bathroom with radiant floors and an original stained glass window. There are two oversized bedrooms with original fireplaces and a walk-through closet, as well as a laundry room on this floor. The top floor was reimagined as a primary suite. The roofline was raised and flattened from its previous slope to make for a functional space, replete with skylights and a private terrace, again accessible via custom Marvin sliding glass doors. The bedroom has another original fireplace and separate dressing area, while the primary bathroom boasts a rain shower and double shower head, as well as a skylight, and radiant floors. The garden level is a generous one bedroom apartment with new hardwood floors and direct sliding door access to the enormous paved and turf backyard in this 100ft deep lot. There is a timed sprinkler system installed in the professionally landscaped front and back yards for easy gardening and evergreen bamboo providing unparalleled privacy year-round. Below the garden is an unfinished basement which has been professionally waterproofed to provide ample additional storage space and house the whole home water filtration & softening system for every faucet. No stone was left unturned in the loving renovation of this early 20th-century brownstone. Every detail was thoughtfully restored with exceptional care, resulting in a seamless blend of historic charm and modern luxury townhouse living. Ideally situated on a quiet, tree-lined block in prime Park Slope, the home offers convenient access to Prospect Park, multiple subway lines—including the 2, 3, B, D, N, Q, R, 4, and 5 trains—as well as the LIRR at Atlantic Terminal. The charming shops, cafés, and restaurants along Fifth and Seventh Avenues are also just moments away. With the best of the neighborhood nearby, this is a truly special place to call home.
