345 14th St

345 14th Street is a beautiful late-19th century townhouse positioned in the middle of a quiet tree-lined block in the heart of Park Slope. Suffused with light all day long, this is a warm and inviting home where you’ll feel drawn to explore and linger. The owners did a beautiful job of melding this historic townhouse’s original details with modern comforts. 345 14th Street is a legal 2-family, currently configured with an owner’s triplex (semi-finished basement, garden level, and parlor floor), and a sunny 1-bedroom floor-through apartment above. Coming home to 345 14th Street, you’ll ascend a tall stoop and come through beautifully crafted wood and glass double doors to the parlor floor, where the ceilings soar over 10 feet high and tall windows bring light deep into the house from the north and south. This floor features two original stone fireplace mantles, wide plank floors, original moldings, pocket doors and a large bathroom with a walk-in shower and deep soaking tub with views to the garden below. On the garden level, a second entrance under the stoop leads to an elegant front sitting room with another original fireplace mantle. A small gallery with bookshelves leads to a sunny and expansive kitchen with lots of counter space, a pantry, washer/dryer, and large windows to the backyard. Glass doors open directly to a herringbone brick patio and a sunny landscaped backyard. Perfect for entertaining and everyday life, this tranquil oasis from the bustle of Brooklyn is also a great place to put your green thumb to good use. On the top floor you’ll find a 1-bedroom apartment plus nursery/study with two more original fireplace mantles, a full bath with a shower, and a windowed kitchen in excellent condition. Rent the top floor as a high-income rental, keep it as an in-law suite, or retain it and live in the whole house as a 1-family. 345 14th Street is close to the best of Park Slope’s renowned restaurants, boutiques, and other amenities. Prospect Park is just two blocks away. The F/G trains are also two-blocks away and the N/R trains are close by for a quick commute to Manhattan and the rest of Brooklyn. Come see this beautifully renovated historic home and make it the backdrop for your life in Brooklyn!
