Property Description for 140 8th Ave, 6-J

New to market: top floor and move-in condition! This beautifully renovated one-bedroom co-op in a full service Park Slope building is a delight to behold -- from its interior detailing to its treetop-skyline-sunset views of Brooklyn, New York Harbor and Lower Manhattan. The flow of the apartment is lovely, and westerly light drenches the apartment for most of the day. The "industrial-chic" windowed kitchen has been tastefully updated with tall maple cabinetry, new lighting, stainless-steel counters, range and LG refrigerator. An elegant arched foyer opens into the generous living-dining room which has two large windows and is spacious enough for your choice of layout. The bathroom has an updated floor, original Deco wall tile, new Toto toilet and pedestal sink and a reglazed tub. The bedroom is oversized and easily holds a king- or queen-sized bed, bureau, night tables and a desk. A double closet in the bedroom, as well as ones in the living-dining room and the foyer, offer good apartment storage. Oak parquet floors, new Smith & Noble window shades, new premium Friedrich window air conditioners -- and no footsteps overhead -- are notable highlights of this stylish apartment. 140 8th Avenue, a landmarked Art Deco building, is situated at the foot of coveted Montgomery Place in the heart of Park Slope's Historic District. It has front-door coverage from early morning until after midnight, a full-time super, trash disposal on each floor, playroom, basement laundry and storage units, bike room and two secluded courtyard gardens. Perfectly located just one avenue from Prospect Park (another Olmsted & Vaux masterpiece) to the east, it's also one block west to Seventh Avenue where you're mere minutes to the 2/3, the B/Q and the F/G trains, Vanderbilt Avenue and all that beckons from the Grand Army Plaza cultural mecca. A short distance to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, two weekend farmers markets and several gyms round out the amenities. Maintenance in this pet-friendly building includes all heat, water and electricity. This one truly has it all!

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).
