184 Park Pl

A Victorian brownstone row home, built in 1879 situated just above Prospect Park, located in the quaint neighborhood of in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. The new owner has spent two years renovating with the integrity of the original house as the forefront of the project. The owner modernized where necessary, while restoring every salvageable detail to greatest ability. The house has an amazing history of previous owners being artists; one painter, and her husband a clock connoisseur, one opera singer, his wife a known writer. The house utilizes the front parlor as a non for profit art space dedicated to Brooklyn-based women artists, curated so that each show includes various mediums as well as international artists on a month to month basis. After each salon the gallery may be open by appointment only. The house has five working fireplaces, a backyard with a 100-year-old footed bathtub, a traditional library, a proper garden, an outdoor deck and spiral staircase, a partial glass, eco-friendly, indoor/outdoor heated art studio, and unique deck-side candlelit sunset & sunrise yoga gatherings. The kitchen has an original coal burning stove made in 1760 that is no longer in operation, but remains as a nod to the original design. It is quite rare to come across a property with these amenities and this deep, rich history.
