Welcome to 56 Garfield Place, this classically-beautiful sprawling single-family townhouse, was designed by The Brooklyn Home Company and almost entirely newly-constructed, completed in 2017. This exquisite residence is four stories plus a finished cellar with an elevator serving every floor and the roof. Boasting four oversized bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms, and three incredible outdoor spaces, this home epitomizes luxurious Brooklyn living. Deeded covered parking is also available for purchase steps away.
Upon entering the home, you are greeted by an elegant marble-tiled entry hall flanked by a gracious walk-in coat closet on one side and a windowed powder room on the other. The expansive living room, with soaring ceilings and custom crown moldings, is anchored by a striking TrueFire gas fireplace. This state-of-the-art kitchen is bathed in South facing sun from its massive wall of windows. It features exposed beams, a La Cornue 110 range, Subzero refrigeration, Bosch panelized dishwasher, and thick honed Pietra Cardosa countertops. Standing at the farm sink, enjoy views of the lush and sunny garden with landscaped irrigated beds, two bluestone seating areas and a large lawn with Synlawn for incredibly easy maintenance.
On the second floor, living continues in the beautiful family room featuring custom arched built-ins, a gas fireplace, and integrated surround sound. This level also includes a spacious bedroom and a beautifully finished bathroom. The third floor offers two generously sized bedrooms, each with en suite bathrooms and walk in closets, along with one of the home's two full-sized laundry rooms.
The primary suite is a serene retreat, complete with a luxurious marble bathroom featuring a custom double vanity, a soaking tub, and an expansive marble shower with Waterworks fixtures. The suite also includes a spacious walk-in closet, exposed wood beams, a private terrace, and a flexible space perfect for an office or sweet sitting area. Just up the stairs, or accessed via the elevator, is a spacious and super functional roof deck with concrete pavers, with Manhattan skyline views and ample space to indulge in your own urban oasis with multiple seating areas.
The cellar of the home is an incredible asset and another desirable living space in the home. Tons of space and high ceilings, a full-sized laundry room and full bathroom make this level incredible for spreading out. Perfect as a playroom, family room or gym just at the bottom of the stairs, and the rear room is sunlit through a glass door that leads straight up the stairs to the yard.
Attention to detail is evident throughout the home, with lacquer-painted moldings and doors, and an elegant staircase with curved walls is an architectural centerpiece of the home. Find custom built-ins throughout, high quality double-paned Marvin windows, and energy-efficient spray foam insulation. The front facade has been meticulously restored with a limestone stucco finish, traditional cornice, and a new front door with keyless entry, intercom, and video surveillance system. Additionally, enjoy the convenience of private parking just a few doors away at an additional cost.
This home seamlessly combines elegance and functionality, providing everything you could desire in a Brooklyn townhouse. Just off bustling and trendy 5th Avenue in Park Slope, anything you could want for is at your fingertips. From high end dining, shopping, parks and playgrounds along with easy access to multiple subway lines.
