409 Bergen Street

Introducing 409 Bergen Street - A 3-Family Park Slope Gem
Discover 409 Bergen Street, a delightful 20-foot wide, three-family brick townhouse nestled on a tree-lined street in Park Slope. This well-maintained, four-story house features a spacious two-bedroom owner's duplex, a bright one-bedroom plus alcove on the third floor, and a serene, loft-like retreat on the fourth floor. Seamlessly blending pre-war elegance - such as original etched glass sliding doors and four marble fireplaces - with modern upgrades, this home is currently configured as a three-family residence but can easily be restored to its original grandeur as a single-family home with a luxurious primary bedroom suite on the top, sun-drenched floor.

The Owner's Duplex
Occupying the first two floors, the owner's duplex welcomes you into a grand parlour-level living space bathed in natural light from full-size windows. A stunning marble fireplace serves as the centerpiece, complemented by soaring ceilings and original moldings. The open-concept kitchen and dining area, separated by exquisite etched-glass sliding doors, features another charming marble fireplace and two oversized windows overlooking the deck and expansive backyard.

The kitchen underwent a meticulous renovation, boasting custom maple wood cabinetry with a Putnam rolling ladder, a spacious island with two-inch granite countertops, and top-tier appliances, including a Liebherr refrigerator, Capital stove, and Bosch dishwasher. Step outside onto your private wooden deck, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.
On the ground level, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, a spacious walk-in closet, and a full bathroom with a bathtub. A beautiful exposed-brick wall lines the stairwell, while wide-plank floors crafted from reclaimed antique pine add character. The sunlit front bedroom features yet another marble fireplace, while the rear bedroom offers direct access to the lush backyard - an urban oasis featuring a River Birch tree, a small pond, and flourishing rose bushes.

Functional Basement
Below the duplex, a dry and functional basement provides a laundry area, extensive storage, and a workshop space with an enclosed furnace. Recent updates include an upgraded electrical system and a replaced sewage pipe, ensuring modern reliability. This versatile lower level can be reimagined to suit your needs.

The Upper Units

Unit 2 (Third Floor): A bright and airy one-bedroom with a cozy office nook currently used as a dining room, abundant natural light, and an updated bathroom overlooking the backyard. The charming country-style kitchen sits at the center of the home.

Unit 3 (Fourth Floor): This inviting open space features a large kitchen with backyard views and an exposed brick accent wall. Elevated on a sloped street, the top floor is drenched in light with unobstructed views, making it an ideal candidate for a primary bedroom suite in a single-family conversion.
