It’s a rare space: An elegant, top-of-the-line penthouse that occupies an entire floor in Park Slope. Located at 277 1st Street, the condominium has three terraces and a roof deck.

Floor-to-ceiling wraparound windows on four exposures ensure the apartment is flooded with natural light. Also keeping the environs light: wide-plank rift and quarter-sawn white oak floors, the light grey German-made kitchen cabinets, and the sleek stainless-steel Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances.

The kitchen, living room and dining room are all open to each other, and overlook a terrace and city views. There are convenient touches throughout, such as the built-in coffee maker and a wine cooler that opens to the dining room.

Stairs in the center of the apartment lead to a huge roof deck, which comes outfitted with full kitchen hookups and is ready for al fresco dining.

The master suite has its own south-facing private terrace, large walk-in closet and bathroom. There are four bedrooms and three bathrooms altogether, as well as a laundry room.

All three bathrooms are deluxe, with deep soaking tubs and sinks, fixtures by Duravit, floor-to-ceiling tiles and smart toilets.

Altogether, the home has 2,298 square feet on the interior and 1,529 square feet of exterior space.

The home is wired with a Lutron home automation system that remotely controls shade, heat and light from any device. The building has geothermal cooling, a high-efficiency heating system, spray foam insulation and an integrated water filtration system.

A private storage room in the building comes with the unit, and an elevator opens directly into the apartment.

The neighborhood is known as one of the best places to raise kids in New York City, with a plethora of local public and private schools, Prospect Park, and the playground at J.J. Byrne nearby. Whole Foods at 3rd Street and 3rd Avenue is a short walk away. The R train at the Union Street stop is four blocks away.

Listed by Aran Scott and Anthony Robles of Douglas Elliman, the apartment is asking $3.999 million.
