South Slope Open House Roundup: Single-Family Homes
It’s time to take a peek inside some of the open houses that are taking place around the Slope, and this weekend it’s all about those single-family properties. if you’re searching for a cozy townhouse, private parking, or a dreamy chef’s kitchen, you won’t have to look far. Check out some of the details below:
153 16th Street, between 4th and 5th Avenues
Open House: Saturday, May 2, 1-2:30pm and Sunday, May 3, 1-2:30pm
Price: $985,000
Size: 2-bed, 2-bath
Details: Restored in 2013, our first home features three floors of living space. In the basement you’ll find a huge country chef’s kitchen, large bath, and separate laundry area. The family room and guest bedroom sit on the parlor level, and the third floor master suite boasts reclaimed barn wood floors, built-in dressers, a walk-in closet, and private bath.

182A 32nd Street, between 4th and 5th Avenues
Open House: Sunday, May 3, 1-3pm
Price: $995,000
Size: 2-bed, 1.5-bath
Details: Yes, it’s outside of South Slope, but this 32nd Street home sits at just under $1 million, and is definitely worth a look-see. The modern eat-in kitchen, with new stainless steel appliances, has ample counter and cupboard space, and leads out to a backyard. Though currently used as an office/studio, the fully finished basement would be a fantastic playroom, or even a third bedroom, and up on the third floor, prospective owners will find two large bedrooms, and a spa-inspired bath. Best of all, you’ll say goodbye to alternate side parking, as this home comes with its own private spot.

285 20th Street, between 5th and 6th Avenues
Open House: Saturday, May 2, 1-3pm and Sunday, May 3, 1-3pm
Price: $2,250,000
Size: 2-bed, 2-bath
Details: We’ve got to be honest, it was love at first sight when we saw the vintage stove in this 20th Street home (shown above). The rest of the property is pretty sweet, too. Look for a two car garage (be still my heart), two gardens with raised vegetable beds and a fountain, exposed beams, poured concrete and hardwood floors, built-ins, a wood burning fireplace, central air conditioning, laundry room, and cedar-lined walk-in closet. 2,280-square-feet of living space not enough? Owners have the option of building on an additional 6,000-square-feet.
