579 5th St, Brooklyn, NY 11215

Discover the rare elegance of 579 5th Street, a stunning 20’ wide Tudor-style townhouse on a 100’ deep lot, nestled in the coveted Park Slope Historic District. Built in 1903 as part of a distinguished row of 12 townhomes by Lane and Yeandle, this property evolved from a stately single-family home into a two-family residence with a doctor’s office in 1946, and finally into a legal three-family home in 1972—all while preserving its historic grandeur and adapting to modern needs. The garden-level apartment offers a spacious floor-through layout with its own private entrance and exclusive access to the garden and a finished basement. Boasting 8.5-foot ceilings and two full bathrooms, it’s a serene retreat with thoughtful amenities. The grand duplex spans the second and third floors, extending 70 feet from front to back. With soaring 10-foot ceilings, four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and elegant arched doorways, this space blends historic charm with modern luxury. Stained glass accents further elevate its timeless character. The top two floors feature a bright two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment, complete with a stunning roof terrace offering panoramic views of Brooklyn and Manhattan. Skylights bathe the space in natural light, enhancing its warmth and openness. Modern comforts include washer-dryer units in each apartment, multiple gas fireplaces, and a newer gas boiler for year-round convenience. This versatile home is ideal as a residence with rental income or as a single-family conversion, offering a unique blend of historic architecture and contemporary living. Delivered Vacant!
