Enchanting 1,850sf upper duplex in an historic 1890's Park Slope mansion just a half block from Grand Army Plaza & Prospect Park. Literally above it all, this grand two bedroom with FDR (or three bedroom home without), two full baths and private deck provides its inhabitants with a sense of the grandeur of the past as well as the warm top floor charm and informality rarely found outside of a Katherine Hepburn film. The first level features a gorgeous detailed high ceilinged living room defined by its opulent arched window, mantle & mirror. There's an office or nursery, a newly done well appointed kitchen, FDR (or master bedroom) with marble mantle, and a restored Victorian bath. A beautiful & spacious South deck provides sun or shade depending on your mood and a lovely view of the rear gardens weeping down toward 7th Ave. The upper floor has the classic feel of a 19th Century Hamptons beach house (with the notable exception of the brand new designer bath & additional laundry room with full sized washer + dryer). Completing the picture are two large bedrooms and a storage closet large enough for steamer trunks and all sorts of gear. Utilities are included in the rent. There are three pre-installed AC's.
