A rare opportunity awaits for you to own and enjoy a spectacular 3-story home with a finished basement, rear garden, lovely decks, and a fabulous rooftop oasis in prime Park Slope! Built in 1899, and impeccably gut-renovated in 2014, 425 4th Street is truly a dream for the discerning buyer seeking a home that blends historic charm and character with modern features and luxuries. The list of thoughtful improvements is endless, including brand new windows, a new roof, completely replaced plumbing, electric, HVAC, and the careful restoration of original moldings & plaster work, paired with all-new herringbone oak wood floors and refined high-end finishes at every turn.
The architecturally distinctive home sits on a prized tree-lined street in Brooklyn's premier neighborhood. A gorgeous exterior with a lovely forecourt greets you upon arrival. The elegant entryway is adorned with custom millwork and introduces the bright and airy open-concept main entertaining level enriched by tall ceilings and hardwood floors. A stunning living room with a beautiful fireplace and wood trim accents opens to a gracious formal dining room adorned with tasteful moldings, wainscoting, and millwork.
Beyond is the fabulous open kitchen and family room area that can be divided off if desired with sliding pocket doors or serve as an expansive front-to-rear backdrop for hosting guests. Meticulously designed chef's quarters are appointed with abundant custom cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, a generous island with seating, and top-grade Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances including a Wolf steam oven, plus a Miele dishwasher. A dining nook with a custom table and built-in bench makes a perfect spot for morning coffee and casual fare. A custom floor-to-ceiling glass wall accesses the deck and BBQ off the kitchen, leading down to the backyard garden for relaxing and dining alfresco. Completing the parlor floor is a powder room for guests, and a custom sound system with Sonos speakers throughout.
Level 2 presents the divine primary bedroom retreat tucked quietly in the back of the home, with a wall of closets, a new elevated deck, and a spa-like bath with a dropped skylight, double sinks, heated floors, marble finishes, a soaking tub, separate shower & water closet.
Also on this floor is a front-facing second bedroom with a half bath, custom millwork, and a Murphy bed. The space is currently used as a home office. A second office with a built-in desk and bookshelves and a laundry room are also found on this level.
Three top-floor bedrooms have excellent closet space and share a Jack & Jill bath with two separate water closets. The roof deck above is divine, with lots of room for outdoor furniture and plants, plus breathtaking views and brilliant sunsets.
A fully finished English basement with a rec area, guest room, full bath, and storage complete the picture of this irresistible home. So does the location, just minutes from 7th Avenue, Prospect Park, shops & restaurants & more!
