This South Slope condo duplex features over 1,700 square feet of interior space and a 969 square foot private, south facing garden. On the garden level there are all new hardwood floors; new windows; a renovated, open kitchen with stainless steel GE Profile appliances; a master bedroom with en suite bath and access to the garden; a generous second bedroom that faces the garden; a second full bathroom; a washer/dryer that vents to the outside and central a/c. The garden can also be accessed via stairs from the very large recreation room on the lower level.  The rec room has a Maytag mini-fridge and half bath, making it perfect for entertaining.  This level also has a room, currently being used as a bedroom, that would be perfect as a home office, as well as a very large cedar closet.  There is a split system to cool off this level if needed.  You are a half block from 5th Avenue where there are seemingly endless options for dining and shopping.  The building is pet friendly and has a 25 year 421a tax abatement that runs until 2034.
