House of the Day: Exposed Beams, Bay Window, Shingles in South Slope

This wood frame house at 326 15th Street in Park Slope is unstoppably cute on the outside with shingles, a bay window, elaborate cornice, and blue and white color scheme. Inside, the great room on the garden floor is unusual and interesting.

The garden floor has been opened up, with exposed wood beams, wood columns, wood counters in the kitchen, and a hand cut wood screen above the tiled sink area. Yes, you’re looking at a handmade 1970s hippie kitchen and, yes, we truly love it. (Quick, someone alert the Hippy Kitchens Tumblr.)

No other interior rooms are shown. We’re a bit puzzled they don’t show the parlor. Maybe it’s full of stuff.

The house is only 16.4 wide, and is set up as a one-family. It probably works best that way, but the former kitchen on the top floor now used as a laundry room could easily become a kitchen again.

It could use “a little TLC,” according to the listing. What do you think of it and the ask of $1,500,000?
