“Open Water” film creators put Park Slope brownstone on the market

Chris Kentis and Laura Lau, the husband-and-wife team who wrote and directed the psychological thriller “Open Water,” have put their Park Slope brownstone on the market, with an asking price of $3.1 million, according to the New York Times. “One problem with brownstones is they’re sort of dark in the middle,” said Hal Lehrman, a principal broker of Brooklyn Properties, which has the listing. “But they’ve put these amazing skylights on the top floor, and the floors of the stairwells are frosted glass, so light pours straight through to the parlor floor.” The couple, who paid $2.1 million for the house in 2005, opened up the parlor floor, which was originally three spaces, into one large room, and created a wall of glass that faces toward a garden, hiring MESH Architectures to do the renovations.
