Park Slope co-op asks $949K
Second fl oor apartment boasts stained glass window

A two-bedroom, one-bath
co-op is for sale in an eightunit
circa 1900 Neo-Georgian
walkup in the Park Slope Historic
District.
The apartment is on the
second floor at 509 2nd Street
and features plenty of woodwork,
window and door trim
and built-ins with egg and dart
molding, fluting and classical
motifs.
The dining room, set up
here as a living room, has
built-in china cabinets and
drawers topped by mirrors,
a bracketed plate rail, and a
parquet floor.
The kitchen is in the rear
and is not fancy but is sizable,
with two windows on opposite
walls and room for a table
and chairs. It has wood floors,
white tile walls, a tile counter,
wood cabinets and built-in
pantry with wood doors.
At the opposite end of the
unit is the one-time parlor,
configured here as the master
bedroom. It has two windows
in the bay and a stained
glass window, parquet floors
with an inlaid border, and a
pier mirror with classical columns.
It has a pass-through
window to another room, a
flexible bedroom or second
parlor, pictured here as an
office.
The layout takes advantage
of a central air shaft, offering
light to the middle rooms.
The bathroom is small, with
an awkwardly placed sink. A
smaller, wall-hung sink and
a small clawfoot tub might
give the fixtures some breathing
room.
There are four closets altogether
and deeded storage
in the basement. The building
also has laundry, stroller
and bike parking, and a shared
back patio.
509 2nd Street is located
in the Park Slope Historic
District. Most of the block
was built in the 1890s, but
its Neo-Georgian details suggest
a later construction, 1900
or after. The building combines
a brownstone stoop with
a brick facade and a limestone
ground floor, sills and lintels.
It’s has a Neo-Renaissance
doorway, scroll and floriate
keystones over the second
floor windows and arched
windows in the top floor bay,
and swagged classical motifs
on the cornice.
We featured another unit
in the building last year, and
a similar unit on the fourth
floor, last asking $950,000,
is in contract.
This one is asking
$949,000, with monthly maintenance
of $800. Debra Bondy
and Sally Marmet of Compass
are the agents. Will the
price hold up?
