For some people, New York City is defined by towering skyscrapers and wide open busy streets like Times Square. For me, what makes New York City exceedingly special are the countless 19th century townhouses you see dotted throughout the five boroughs.

It’s hard to express in words, but there’s an indescribable feeling of warmth I get whenever I walk down a tree-lined Brooklyn street and look at all the amazing historic family homes. That’s part of the reason why I am so excited about our newest ‘Home of the Week‘ in Brooklyn’s popular Park Slope neighborhood.

The $6.5 million dollar residence was carefully restored to its turn of the century brilliance, but its modern amenities also make it the picture of contemporary living. What results is nothing short of spectacular. It is simply a dream – a private getaway in the heart of the big city.
