Property Description for 101 8th Ave, 8

This beautiful sun-filled 2-bedroom apartment sits atop a grand mansion, built in 1909 for beer baron John Weber, in one of Park Slope's most desirable locations, the corner of 8th Avenue and President Street, one block from Prospect Park. Youll come home to an elegant gated courtyard, enter through impressive neo-Georgian brass doors, and go up to a wonderful sanctuary on the top floor. The living room is expansive, bright, and lofty, with a huge skylight, soaring 10 foot ceilings, and windows which look out onto the trees along 8th Avenue. The kitchen is also filled with light all day long, thanks to a large window, which provides another view onto 8th Avenue. Renovated in 2014, the kitchen has stainless steel appliances, new cabinets, stone floor tile, and a convenient pantry for extra storage. Walking back to the bedrooms, youll find lots of closet space in the hallway and a washer/dryer hook-up. The apartment is equipped with super quiet and efficient three-zone air conditioning.Just off the master-bedroom, a sunny terrace provides a private place to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day under the shade of a retractable awning. The apartment also includes exclusive rights to approximately one-third of the large roof to build a board-approved deck on the brand-new roof with 20-year warranty. Along with private roof rights is the recently refurbished and well-landscaped common garden area tucked away on sleepy President Street. The building features storage and additional laundry in the basement and is pet friendly. This rock-solid, well-managed co-op has had many recent renovations (new roof, repaired concrete areas, newly painted windows). Uncommon by any measure, 101 8th Avenue, Apt 8 is perfectly located along tree-lined President Street and one block to shopping and dining while convenient to both the 2/3 and B/Q subway lines.

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).
