153 Lincoln Place 1DBrooklyn, NY 11217

A Rare and Private Garden Duplex in a Historic North Park Slope Mansion Tucked away in the rear of a striking Romanesque Revival mansion at 153 Lincoln Place, Unit 1D is a truly one-of-a-kind duplex condo that lives like a townhouse. Offering the indoor space, immense private garden, and peace and quiet of a standalone home, this 1,644 SF residence also gives you the rare opportunity to own a piece of Park Slope history for a fraction of the cost of a traditional brownstone.

Set on one of North Park Slope's most desirable blocks-just off 7th Avenue and moments from Prospect Park-this three-bedroom, three-bathroom home has been thoughtfully renovated by its current owners to combine timeless architectural charm with the ease of modern living. The grand, freestanding mansion was converted into just ten condominiums in 2009, and Unit 1D enjoys a uniquely special position at the back of the building, with light pouring in from three different exposures and nine oversized windows in the generous living room. A second floor with three spacious bedrooms, including an enormous primary suite, generous laundry room, and central AC throughout complete the townhouse vibe.
On the main level, you're welcomed by a spacious, open-concept living and dining area with a newly renovated chef's kitchen and striking poured concrete floors throughout. Outfitted with top-of-the-line appliances-including a DCS five-burner gas range, a 36-inch Viking professional refrigerator with an icemaker, and an LG dishwasher-this kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful, offering plenty of custom cabinetry for storage and elegant quartz countertops for prep. Enjoy an oversized living room perfect for comfy furniture, and an ample separate space for formal dining. Host dinner parties and holidays and have room for everyone at the table! There is even a full bathroom on this level should you choose to include a pullout sofa for overnight guests. The full bath on this level has been recently renovated and features Kohler fixtures, a deep soaking tub and shower, and classic black and white palette.

A stylish wood and glass staircase leads to the bedroom level, where the separation between private and shared spaces is ideal, mirroring the convenience of brownstone living. A sizable primary suite features three large windows with serene garden views, customized closets, and a spa-like windowed en-suite bath with recessed medicine cabinet, travertine tiles, and a linen closet. Two additional bedrooms are equally tranquil and spacious, both featuring great closets already customized with the Elfa system. Shared by both bedrooms is a newly renovated bathroom that also includes a deep soaking tub with modern fittings and fixtures. And don't miss the fully outfitted laundry closet with a vented Samsung washer and dryer, as well as a built-in folding and storage shelf. A rarity in a condo!

One of the home's standout features is the expansive private garden-part paved for furniture, part grass for play-offering a peaceful, secluded retreat perfect for dining al fresco, grilling, gardening, or simply enjoying the outdoors in total privacy. It's an oasis rarely found in Brooklyn condo living.

Located just minutes from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, Grand Army Plaza, the Greenmarket, the Botanic Gardens, and the Q, B, 2, and 3 subway lines, this home puts you in the heart of North Park Slope, surrounded by tree-lined streets, historic architecture, top-rated schools, and some of Brooklyn's best shopping, dining, and culture.
