This grand home at nearly 5000 feet is well located in the Park Slope Historic District and features unique amenities, like a large private driveway and parking for two cars, a large mudroom with washer | dryer and many of the home's original turn of the century fixtures. Built in 1901 by Charles G. Peterson and designed by Frederick Tyrrell, this storied home pays tribute to its historic past. Decorative details include cornices, wrought iron and relief-cast limestone façade, pier mirrors, parquet hardwood flooring, wainscoting, and finely detailed millwork that exude warmth and grandeur. Within the home, you'll find a number of decorative fireplace mantles alongside original stained glass windows. The front parlor level salvages late classical details with beautiful ceiling plasterwork, hand painted with decorative vines, leaves and flowers. The master bath itself transports you to the Victorian-era complete with it's stunning claw-foot tub and custom oak vanity. Contemporary additions include the kitchens's granite countertops, sub-zero fridge, and stainless steel appliances, including a large gas range and dishwasher.

A short walk through Grand Army Plaza on Saturday will deliver you to the farmers market and live music events at the bandshell in Brooklyn's Prospect Park.
