Residence 2 at 561 Fifth Street is a sun-filled, full-floor parlor-level condominium in a classic 20-foot-wide Italianate brownstone, just half a block from Prospect Park West. Oversized south-facing windows, leafy tree-lined views and a flowing layout set a serene tone. Nearly 10-foot ceilings, parquet floors, crown moldings, deep window seats and a wood-burning fireplace give the home its unmistakable brownstone charm. The open living and dining room (approx. 22' x 12') works for both everyday living and entertaining. A separate kitchen with granite countertops completes the practical layout. Two generously sized bedrooms offer privacy and flexibility. More than 25 linear feet of closets, including twin closets in the second bedroom and a shelved linen closet, provide exceptional storage. A wide hallway fits a home office nook, and in-unit laundry plus split-system units in the living room and each bedroom add everyday comfort. At the end of the block, Litchfield Villa and the Third Street playground lead to the Picnic House and Long Meadow. The Boathouse, lake, Carousel, Zoo and Bandshell are close by, along with Grand Army Plaza, the Brooklyn Museum, Botanic Garden and Central Library. The cafés, restaurants and shops of Fifth and Seventh Avenues are an easy walk, with convenient subway access to Brooklyn and Manhattan. Currently zoned for P.S. 321 (buyer to verify). Set within a four-unit prewar condominium, this full-floor home pairs townhouse character with condominium convenience. Approx. monthly taxes $607; common charges $192. Morning sun, green views, Prospect Park steps away and evenings by the fire.
