The decision to move from Manhattan to Brooklyn can be a rite of passage for many NYC couples and families. For example, top broker Ryan Serhant’s family and comedian Amy Schumer’s family both made that transition within the last few years. Why? People enjoy the family-friendly vibe, ample green space, and larger homes for a better price that the borough has to offer. A stunning 3,610-square-foot triplex asking $5.995 million in Park Slope is an ideal landing spot for such buyers, and it just went into contract roughly a month after listing.
The groovy yet chic condo sits in the building complex dubbed The Vermeil, a beautiful brownstone offering rich character with contemporary amenities. Unit 2C is spacious and sun-drenched. Warm wood floors carry through each space, from the updated kitchen and cozy breakfast nook to the modern great room with a mesmerizing wall of glass.
The building offers residents a chic backyard and garden, proving in fact that a tree does grow in Brooklyn! Or rather, many do. The wisteria-covered pergola makes for a peaceful retreat amongst any city noise, and there’s even a direct gas line for grilling. It also has a furnished roof deck and a heated parking garage for residents.
Back inside, the unit holds a total of five bedrooms and four bathrooms, each cheerful and popping with color. For total serenity, the primary suite occupies the entire top floor. With a spa-like bathroom complete with a jetted soaking tub and a rain shower, and not one but two boutique-inspired walk-in closets, this is the epitome of luxury living.
Whoever is in contract for the residence is following a well-trodden path. Celebrities like John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard, and Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany have called the Park Slope neighborhood home in years past. Lindsay Barton Barrett of Douglas Elliman has the listing.
