Description
A beautifully landscaped entry garden sets a welcoming tone at 527 Third Street: a rare opportunity to own a fully reimagined Park Slope townhouse—where a meticulously restored turn-of-the-century façade now conceals a recently completed full renovation of all the interior, thoughtfully redesigned for modern living.
The brand-new kitchen features high-end appliances: Wolf stove, Subzero fridge and a Cove dishwasher. All bathrooms are new, and the flooring refinished throughout. This exceptional residence builds upon an already celebrated architectural foundation—previously featured in NY Spaces and Design Brooklyn—now elevated to an even higher standard of finish and functionality.
Spanning four expansive floors plus a finished cellar, the home is defined by extraordinary light and volume. A dramatic two-story window wall frames the garden, while a central skylight cascades natural light through each level—a highly coveted feature usually lacking in townhouse living.
At approximately 11’ ceilings, the parlor level offers a seamless flow for both entertaining and everyday life. Original details, including restored shutters and a stately fireplace, are paired with a completely redesigned kitchen, where refined materials and top-tier appliances create a clean, contemporary aesthetic with warmth and depth. The adjacent dining area overlooks the garden, enhancing the connection between interior and exterior living.
The garden level introduces a more relaxed, intimate living space with custom built-ins and direct access to the landscaped rear yard that feels like a hidden oasis—complete with three mature cherry blossom trees for your own private spring bloom. A well-appointed guest suite with steam shower provides a luxurious retreat and privacy for visitors.
Below, the finished cellar delivers a suite of lifestyle amenities, including a private gym and a wine cellar designed for serious collectors and a laundry room.
The entire second floor is dedicated to a serene primary suite—an elegant retreat featuring treetop views, a fireplace, and a spa-caliber bathroom now newly updated with refined finishes and natural light. An expansive walk-through closet with a desk/vanity area and a private terrace nestled among the gardens completes this tranquil level.
Upstairs, two additional bedrooms plus a flexible living space (or additional large bedroom suite) offer versatility for a variety of needs, all supported by two bathrooms and ample storage and their own set of washer dryers.
Throughout the home, every element has been carefully considered—from custom millwork and upgraded finishes to central air, radiant heated bathroom floors, and integrated home automation—resulting in a residence that is both highly functional and beautifully composed.
Ideally located just moments from Prospect Park, and surrounded by the best of Park Slope’s dining, shopping, and transportation, 527 Third Street is a rare offering: a classic Brooklyn brownstone townhouse, fully renewed for today’s lifestyle, and ready for its next chapter. The house is in close proximity of some to NY’s best public and private schools.
Set on one of Park Slope’s most cherished blocks, 527 Third Street is part of a historically significant stretch known for its remarkable scale and architectural heritage. Third Street—one of the widest and most picturesque in the neighborhood—originated as the private drive of railroad magnate Edwin Litchfield, whose vast estate once extended from Prospect Park to the waterfront. As the land was developed in the late 19th century, these elegant brownstones emerged, forming what is now considered one of Brooklyn’s most desirable and visually striking residential enclaves, defined by its generous proportions, mature tree canopy, and timeless character.

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI’m a teacher and parent with 2 children here and I can’t recommend 321 enough. Administration is extremely supportive, thoughtful and organized. Teachers truly support one another and collaborate, and parent engagement is wonderful. Thoughtful curriculum engages students in all areas in a calm supportive environment. My kids love going to school each day. I cannot imagine a better, more well-rounded education. Top notch.Parent Review1y ago - John Jay School for Law

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter did not get the resources for her IEP, instead the teachers FAILED her without reason because they were “unaware of her IEP”. Secondly, my daughter got bullied out of the school due to her being gay. The students don’t each lunch in the cafeteria due to the fights and how unsafe it is. Do NOT send your child here.Parent Review3mo ago - Park Slope Collegiate
