Description
513 4th St is one of the most distinctive and elegant brownstones in Park Slope and is an excellent example of Romanesque Revival architecture. Just off 8th Avenue, a block from Prospect Park, this four story, 2 family townhouse located in the heart of Park Slope is in the coveted P.S. 321 school district. This semi-detached landmark building is divided into one triplex with 5 bedrooms and 3 baths, a one bedroom garden apartment and a basement level. Being one of the most recognizable homes in the neighborhood, it has been featured in multiple music videos, the movie Moonstruck, and on Brownstoner's Building of the Day. This 4,800 sq ft home is set on an extra wide lot measured at 24' x 95'. The uniquely colored brownstone with castle-style balcony and curved facade is topped by a spanish-tiled spire on the roof.

The Park Slope Historic District Designation Report references this home: "In contrast to the unified facades and straight cornice lines of the park block, [this house] displays...a picturesque roof, dormer windows and a fine circular tower crowned by a tall octagonal roof..."
OWNER'S TRIPLEX:
Enter through the main door of 513 and you arrive in a wonderfully lit large living room with inlaid banded parquet floors, 10' ceilings and a detailed cherry fireplace mantel.

Moving through the floor you will walk through a formal dining room, with a unique coffered oak ceiling and into the open concept eat-in kitchen with an over-sized Dacor stove-top island, double-level oven, Sub-Zero fridge, Miele dishwasher and an abundance of granite counter space and storage. The kitchen, with exposed brick, looks out onto the private ipe wood finished deck and landscaped backyard with plenty of room for hosting and satisfying your green-thumb cravings. There is also a full bath on this level. The main rooms on this floor are divided by original oak and cherry sliding parlor pocket doors.
The second floor of the owner's triplex consists of the master suite and what is currently used as a den and office. The master suite includes a modernized bathroom with a large, marble tile shower with acid glass door as well as a massive dual purpose laundry room and closet. The den has original stained glass transoms and access to the balcony.
The third floor consists of 3 bedrooms each with its own closets, and full bath with an additional walk-in closet. A large skylight lights up the staircase and the hallways.
RENTAL UNIT:
The garden level features a spacious, income producing apartment: 8 foot ceilings, one bedroom, one bathroom, kitchen, large living\dining room with private entrance and access to the backyard. The living room has hardwood parquet floors and a fireplace.
