In the heart of Park Slope just a block from Prospect Park, this well-appointed co-op has pre-war loft bones, plenty of light, and a long list of just-right custom amenities and features. Asking $1,990,000, the two-bedroom loft in a former horse stable at 499 12th Street is arranged around a perfectly-appointed central kitchen, with a private terrace that feels like it’s just outside a woodland home.
Encircling a central kitchen, the loft’s living area is framed by 15-foot ceilings, nine windows and refinished hardwood floors. To one side, a built-in office space keeps work and play separate. A wall of Poliform closets keeps clutter behind closed doors.
The kitchen is the hub of the home, featuring hard-working appliances, custom millwork, poured concrete worktops, and handmade Etruscan cement floor tiles. A custom wood dining bar anchors the room; a separate pantry conceals a stacked washer and dryer.
Off the main living space, a massive Nanawall accordion glass panel opens onto a private patio surrounded by horizontal fencing.
The larger bedroom is bright and cozy, lined in white-painted brick. The unit’s one bathroom is large and lofty, with a custom vanity, a poured concrete floor, a step-in shower and a deep soaking tub. The second bedroom is small and sweet; it would serve as a fabulous dressing room for anyone with deep closet needs (though the main chamber does offer a closet).
The co-op building was once part of the Ansonia Clockworks complex. In its current form, it includes eight private lofts. A communal roof deck offers New York City skyline views–and Prospect Park is steps away.
