Property Description for 47 Plaza Street West, 8-B

This sleek, spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment, with 12 sun-filled windows, sparkles in every way. It's housed in one of Park Slope's finest full-service, pre-war doorman buildings -- 47 Plaza Street West. Brooklyn's iconic Flatiron building was designed by renowned architect Rosario Candela, whose elegant buildings set the standard for luxury throughout New York City. Apartment 8B is classic Candela with a modern twist. Beautifully designed, with approximately 1,200 square feet, it can easily convert to a 3 bedroom. A gracious, architecturally lit foyer opens the apartment and unfolds into airy living and formal dining rooms that are perfect for entertaining or just relaxing. These rooms burst with light from South-facing windows, offering unobstructed views from Brownstone Brooklyn to the Verrazano Bridge. In the late afternoon, shimmering amber sunsets from the West offer dramatic views to the Statue of Liberty and Manhattan. The apartment features a fully renovated, chef's kitchen outfitted with Carrera marble countertops, a stainless backsplash and top-of-the-line appliances. It includes an under-counter Miele washer and dryer, ample cabinetry and a full pantry for storage. The light-filled master bedroom has a large, custom-designed walk-in closet and an en-suite, soothing white, subway-tiled bath. The second bedroom has built-ins and a stylish, en-suite Bisazza-tiled bath. 47 Plaza Street West was built in 1928, with 43 units in 2 separate elevator banks creating an exclusive living environment. In fact, Apartment 8B has only one neighboring apartment across the hall. And the neighbors are terrific! The building also has storage units and bike storage. Located at Grand Army Plaza, the building is steps from the weekly, farmer's market and the lush, 585-acre Prospect Park. The Brooklyn Public Library, Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Barclay's Center and Brooklyn Academy of Music are just blocks away. Park Slope has been called the most livable neighborhood in New York City and one of the best places to live in the country, with its historic brownstones, abundance of cultural offerings, bustling restaurants and retail shops, and so much more. The building is ideally situated to mass transit, less than two blocks to the 2 and 3 subway lines at Grand Army Plaza, and just a short walk the B and Q lines at Seventh Avenue. Sorry, no dogs are allowed.

Park Slope | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Boasting beautiful tree-lined streets, brownstones and a range of activities for all age groups, Park Slope is consistently ranked as one of New York’s most desirable neighborhoods. Filled with lush parks and greenery, the neighborhood is also known for its rare combination of excellent public schools, award-winning restaurants, nightlife, small independently owned businesses and community gardens.

Situated at the western slope of Prospect Park, the neighborhood is divided into different sections: North Slope, Center Slope and South Slope. Depending on who you ask, of course, the definitions of where these borders end and begin may vary (is the divide between North and Center deemed Union Street, Garfield Place, 1st Street or 3rd Street? The one between Center and South 6th Street, 9th Street, 11th Street or 15th Street?). 

Regardless of what part of the Slope you find yourself on, there’s no shortage of architectural beauty. From row houses to brownstones to mansions, the idyllic setting of the neighborhood is further enhanced by its Romanesque and Renaissance Revival styles. Case in point of this is also two of the area’s most well-known churches, Park Slope United Methodist Church and Saint Augustine Roman Catholic Church. 

Revered for its family-friendly appeal, Park Slope is often regarded as one of the best places to raise a family in New York City. That said, it doesn’t mean that parents don’t know how to have a good time... a slew of bars constantly opening in the neighborhood ranging from the high-end cocktail saloon to the dive (well, by Park Slope standards, anyway).
