Property Description for 1509 8th Ave
1509 8th AvenueWest coast meets East coast as this airy two family home marries turn of the century detail with modern day luxury seamlessly. Enter the owners duplex on the ground level to reveal an open plan with the chefs kitchen as the center piece. Top of the line appliances appoint the dreamy kitchen with its oversized soap stone topped island and six burner Wolf range. White washed exposed brick is the back drop for this level complete with dining area, living area with wood burning stove, thoughtful home office and enormous glass windows and sliders that bring the outside in. The magical garden is lush with annuals, perennials and canopied by neighboring flowering trees; an oasis to enjoy three seasons of the year. A precious wallpapered powder room is tucked away on this floor along with a proper redesigned vestibule | mudroom for storing all of life's accessories. One floor up find two oversized sunny bedrooms and an enormous bathroom built for 2 or 3 or 4! The bay window on this level makes for a charming reading nook or a place to nurture your plants. The top floor currently is loaded with pre-war charm with its vintage kitchen and flexible lay-out. This 2 bedroom apartment makes for a wonderful investment on Air BNB for maximum returns. With a waive of the wand, this home easily turns into a 5 bedroom, 2 and one half bathroom home for those who need the space and additional bedrooms. Turn of the century details include original inlaid flooring, restored original stairs and banister, Pier mirror, decorative fireplace mantels and exposed brick. This special property is solar with new state of the art panels adorning the roof. Enjoy NO ELECTRIC bills as all the electricity is completely covered by solar production. A little California right here in the Slope.

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).
