200 Berkeley Place

Rarely does such a stunning home come to market in Prime North Park Slope. 200 Berkeley is the consummate example of what happens when an owner lovingly restores a historic brownstone from the inside out, with full attention to restoring every original detail, in addition to replacing every structural and mechanical component of the home from top to bottom. Situated in the most desirable and convenient section of Park Slope, on a tree-lined and quiet North block just minutes from the Q/B/2/3 Express trains to anywhere in Manhattan.

There is no location with a quicker commute to Manhattan in Park Slope. And of course, don’t miss the opportunity to walk easily to every world-class amenity under the sun including Prospect Park, the Berkeley Carroll school, the Greenmarket at Grand Army Plaza, the Brooklyn Public Library, the Botanic Gardens, and an array of award-winning restaurants, grocery stores, health clubs, yoga studios and Soul Cycle right outside your door. There is even parking available, either deeded or rental.

Please call us for details. This 20’ wide 4-story 2-family home is a masterful example of an 1884 Neo Grecian brownstone with every original detail in place including a fully restored façade with oversized bay windows on every floor, plaster moldings and ceiling medallions throughout, ornate hand-carved mahogany door and window frames, oversized functioning pocket doors, original plantation shutters, hand-nailed inlaid floors, Pier mirror, Arts and Crafts brass hardware, and a rarely-seen staircase with mahogany banisters and newel posts of the utmost distinction. In addition to museum-quality details you will also have the opportunity to enjoy every modern amenity and mechanical upgrade you could ever imagine. These include a discrete and energy efficient hydronic heating and cooling system with 4-zones, all new electric and plumbing, all new c-joists on every floor, a clean and dry basement, new floor-to-ceiling and bay windows, and a masterful and easy to maintain blue-stone garden complete with perimeter planting beds and a large steel deck off the kitchen for convenient indoor/outdoor life.

The chef’s kitchen for the upper triplex is conveniently located at the back of the dramatic parlor floor complete with 12’ high ceilings, offering light all day through floor-to-ceiling windows, a casual sunlit room for daily dining with perfect flow to the back balcony and garden, in addition to a formal dining room located through a set of handsome pocket doors and a few feet from the kitchen. The kitchen itself is a work-of-art and has been outfitted with custom farm-style cabinetry, granite countertops, a professional vented Wolf range plus an additional DCS electric oven, and a large eating island, all perfectly placed for maximum usability. There is an additional renovated kitchen on the garden level with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops that can be used by your high-income tenants, or incorporate this floor back into the triplex and use as a secondary kitchen for entertaining large groups, or as simply a wet-bar when entertaining on the garden level.

The possibilities are endless and require no work to use the home as a 1-family, a 2-family, or simply an extra guest suite when friends and family come to visit. A large clean and dry basement offers a vented washer and dryer and unrivaled storage. Head upstairs to the top two floors of bedrooms and be prepare to be amazed by the perfect combination of scale, drama and old-school elegance. The floor right above the parlor floor features two oversized bedrooms connected by a custom dressing room.

The master is large enough for a king-sized bed plus an office and a lounging area with a view of the treetops through dramatic bays. The back room makes the perfect TV room or library, or use it as an additional oversized bedroom. A large bathroom on this floor features an oversized soaking tub and shower, tumbled marble walls and floors, and dramatic brass and wood fixtures that integrate perfectly with the period of the home offering a warmth and contextualization rarely seen in new renovations.

On the top floor you will find in front a sophisticated and oversized bedroom also with bay widows, a smaller bedroom, nursery or home office, and in the back a large bedroom that has been opened up to accommodate a game room or family room, but could easily become a 5th bedroom for the upper triplex. A stylish bathroom on this floor offers a unique design that sets itself apart from the competition; a custom claw-foot tub with a dramatic bronze patina, a walk-in shower with oversized rain showerhead, and a stunning vanity with bronze fixtures. This is the perfect home for a buyer desiring a piece of perfectly preserved history with no interest in doing any expensive restoration or mechanical work and desiring the convenience that only a North Slope location can offer.
