Just in time for summer cookouts and dining al fresco, this garden duplex boasts nearly 1000sf of private outdoor space, including a patio with outdoor kitchen and south-facing yard. Savvy buyers will also appreciate the tax abatement (expires in 2031) and low common charges of this well-managed boutique building, while enjoying townhouse-style living in the heart of Park Slope.
Unit A1B at 354 2nd Street is a well-configured, legal two bedroom with windowed third room downstairs, currently used as a guest room/workspace. All three rooms have custom built-in closet/wardrobe/dresser systems and there is a coat closet in the hallway to keep personal belongings organized. Laundry is also a breeze with a vented Whirlpool Duet washer-dryer on the main level.
The sellers spared no expense with smart upgrades that improve the quality of life. The fully renovated kitchen is equipped with a Miele dishwasher, Fisher-Paykel refrigerator, Frigidaire Gallery five burner gas range, Whirlpool microwave, and garbage disposal. The sleek granite counter with waterfall edge extends the width of the kitchen to offer additional seating. WiFi controlled Mitsubishi mini-split heating/AC systems were also installed in the bedrooms, den, and recreation room to maximize energy efficiency, while NuHeat radiant heated floors were installed in the lower level for maximum comfort.
The outdoor upgrades include a custom kitchen in the patio outfitted with a Napoleon grill, wine cooler, and built-in planters complete with a collection of fresh herbs at your fingertips. Professionally installed artificial turf, a storage shed, and a cherry blossom tree create a low maintenance, functional, yet beautiful sundrenched yard to enjoy all year round. Dramatic sunsets over the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty are just an elevator ride away to the common roof.
Ideally situated in Park Slope, 354 2nd Street is convenient to some of NYC's top-rated restaurants and boutiques, Prospect Park, playgrounds, schools, gyms, recreation centers, Whole Foods, and multiple public transportation options.
