214 Saint John's Place #2

Soaring 12’ ceilings, meticulously preserved period detail, a renovated kitchen and bath, three bedrooms, and a delightful balcony—This stunning parlor-floor apartment offers 1300 square feet of living space in the most convenient of Park Slope locations! A wonderful foyer, which features the original parquet floor with walnut inlay, welcomes you into the home and sets the tone for what’s to come throughout the apartment. 10’ mahogany doors with ornately carved cornices and casings provide entry to two large coat closets. As you move into the open kitchen, living and dining areas, the lovely parquet flooring continues, while the proportions of the apartment unveil themselves. Just renovated, the kitchen has custom cabinetry, Ceasarstone counters, penny-tile flooring, a glass-tile backsplash, an abundance of storage and work space, stainless steel appliances, and a stackable washer and dryer, discreetly tucked away behind cabinet doors. The ceiling of the dining room and living room boasts a splendid “wedding cake” plaster design, while the gorgeous, mahogany bay windows have stained-glass transoms and pocket shutters. Custom bookshelves flank the working woodburning fireplace and create an airy separation between the dining and living rooms. If you prefer a more open feel between the two rooms, the shelving is easily removable. Plaster coves and crown molding encircle the entire apartment, while every window and door has the original carved cornices and casings.

Nicely separated from the main living area, both rear bedrooms are well-proportioned and have large closets, while the geometric pattern of the flooring in the bedroom that leads to the balcony is of particular note. Adjacent to the living room, the third bedroom has been converted to a study and library with floor-to-ceilings bookshelves and cabinetry. All of the bedroom windows have stained-glass transoms. The bathroom has also been classically renovated with black and white hexagon tile, subway tile, and a pedestal sink. Finally, the balcony offers and perfect place to dine al fresco, enjoy the beauty of the neighboring back yards, and green your thumb.

One of five apartments in this stunning, landmark 22’ wide brownstone, the building also offers storage and bike storage in the basement. The location is fantastic—a few blocks from Prospect Park, near all Park Slope and Prospect Heights has to offer, and around the corner from the 7th Avenue B/Q stop and the Grand Army Plaza, 2/3 stop. Pets are allowed on approval.
