103 Sterling Place

On Sterling Place, inside the Park Slope Historic District, a four-story brownstone from 1899 that spent more than forty years under a single family and stayed remarkably intact. The side-street rows here went up in the decades after Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Bridge, and this one kept its period hand.

Original shutters front the south-facing parlor windows; the rear parlor holds its original mantle and carved woodwork over the garden, and a garden-level kitchen opens to a landscaped yard. Lived in as a single home, it carries a two-family certificate of occupancy across roughly ten rooms.
