About This Property
In the center of Park Slope on quiet tree-lined 8th Street, sits a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home that is guaranteed to check off every box on your list.
Through the gate and up one flight, the entry the space welcomes you into a home of light, space and calm luxury. The southern wall is almost entirely floor to ceiling windows looking south over breezy 8th street. The sun pours in all day over the classic townhouses and splashes your hardwood floors with tremendous light. A moment with sun on your face in your own living room is the perfect antidote to a stressful day. This is best of Brooklyn living.
The renovated kitchen features stainless steel Liebherr refrigerator in its own alcove adjacent to the Bosch stove, and dishwasher. The wrap around counter top, and beautiful tiled backsplash gleam in the natural light. But this kitchen has the rarest of New York City kitchen amenities up its sleeve a dedicated pantry. Shelves are already installed so you can keep all the goods and clutter out of mind in this seamless space, maximizing storage and keeping the countertops ready for the next step of the recipe.
Loft-like and airy, but also comfortable and welcoming, the living area has a great dining space opposite the renovated open kitchen with a large double closet. This room fits a very large table for parties but also works perfectly for intimate dinners or a work space.
The size of the primary suite makes it a rare jewel in Park Slope today. At over 17' feet long it stands out amongst a sea of ever-smaller bedroom suites on the market. Not only will this bright and lovely space fit a king-size bed, but there is more than enough room for dressers, end tables, a home office or even a bike or treadmill. The updated bath with large tile and modern fixtures is a beautiful place to start and finish your daily routines in peace. There is also a massive walk-in closet, which at over 30 Square feet, will serve quite capably as dock for even the most robust wardrobes.
The 2nd bedroom is also oversized and would easily hold a full or queen size bed along with a dresser, desk, and end table. Bright with northern light, this calm and pleasant space has a huge finished closet with plenty of space and storage areas. This would also serve as a very comfortable office or guest room as well.
The full bathroom in the hall is also spacious and holds a full tub just waiting for a relaxing evening. Opposite this bathroom, in the hall, is a stacked Bosch washer and dryer set.
The semi-private terrace is a great space to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning but it leads to a beautiful dedicated yard space down the stairs. With vines on the fences and space to spread out, this yard would be perfect for grilling and relaxing on mild evenings and is ready for your green thumb to come get flowers and herbs thriving in this space that is only for you.
8th Street offers the best of what draws residents to the neighborhood: practical shopping, restaurants, and coffee shops along 5th ave. Beer gardens, bars, and more restaurants on 7th ave. Beautiful Prospect Park at the top of the hill. For transportation, the apartment is one block from 4th ave and 9th Street where the the R,F, and G trains are ready to take you wherever your day needs you to be.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
The entry sits one flight up from the gate and opens into a living area with the dining space across from the renovated open kitchen. Both bedrooms are reached from the hall, past the full bathroom and the stacked Bosch washer and dryer, so the bedrooms are set apart from the main living space.
A Liebherr refrigerator sits in its own alcove beside the Bosch stove and dishwasher, with a wraparound counter and a tiled backsplash. I'd look at the dedicated pantry first. It already has shelving, so the counters can stay clear while you cook.
The southern wall is almost entirely windows, and it faces south over 8th Street. On the winter solstice, a south-facing window can receive direct sun for roughly 8.5 hours, running from 7:41 AM until 4:07 PM. On the summer solstice, the same window can receive direct sun for about 6.1 hours, from 9:55 AM until 4:00 PM. Those figures assume an open horizon, and nearby buildings can block some of that light.
The primary suite is over 17 feet long, which leaves room for a king-size bed along with dressers, end tables, and a home office or a bike or treadmill. Its walk-in closet is over 30 square feet. The second bedroom has northern light and a large finished closet, and it would work well as an office or guest room.
Outdoor space of over 60 square feet is a real addition in a two-bedroom, since a morning coffee outside is easy to fit into the routine. The washer and dryer are inside the unit, so laundry doesn't require leaving the apartment.
Four Av-9 St station, served by the F, G and R, is about 2 minutes on foot, and Washington Park is about 5 minutes. Foodtown is about 3 minutes away, and Dainobu, a deli, is about 1 minute.
