About this home
Tucked away on one of Park Slope’s most charming historic blocks, this exceptional single-family townhouse on Polhemus Place offers exposures on three sides and a rare combination of original architectural detail and thoughtful modern updates.
With four bedrooms, five baths, and a private garden, this home offers an abundance of space for both everyday living and entertaining. The garden level features a spacious den that opens directly onto the garden, while the parlor level has a gracious living room, formal dining room, and updated kitchen. The top two floors include four bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, a generous primary dressing room, and an additional office/study.
The top two floors were completely renovated with structural reinforcement, new flooring, wider hallways, and new plumbing and electrical, while the original decorative and architectural details were carefully preserved. Modern updates include radiant heat in the bathrooms, streamlined radiators, a new split HVAC system on every floor, and new recessed lighting on the parlor floor.
A large storage and utility area on the garden level provides valuable additional space, while a dry well helps protect the English basement from flooding. The roof has been updated, and the house is wired for Wi-Fi and a new thermostat on every floor, bringing modern comfort and convenience to this historic home.
Located on one of Park Slope’s most special blocks, Polhemus Place has an active block association and a wonderful sense of community, with summer Open Streets programming. Lovingly updated while retaining its original soul, this thoughtfully reimagined townhouse is the kind of home that is increasingly hard to find — a special place with the character of old Brooklyn and modern features for ease and comfort....
