Property Description for 144 North 8th Street, 8-A

If you have been looking for that super special home with 2 bed & 2 baths with views, space, drama and convenience, look no further! Unit 8A at 144 N 8th street is that rare jewel in the midst of the ordinary. A two-bedroom, two bath home that defies all expectations by offering 10’ ceilings on a high-floor with dramatic Manhattan and East River views out of every window, with a spacious West facing balcony, a generous and dramatic living room, dazzling light, and just a block from the subway and all of the best amenities that North Williamsburg has to offer. This is the only building situated between Bedford and Berry Streets that was allowed to build this high, so it is a unique opportunity to enjoy jaw-dropping views with the added convenience of a one block jaunt to the L train. Ahead of its time in terms of interior design and building amenities, it is truly a one-of-a-kind that has no equal. The apartment itself is a very generous 1,116 SF two bedroom that is anchored by a large living room with extra space for dining and a 179 SF terrace right off of the living room for easy al fresco entertaining. Enter through a generous gallery space with a double width coat closet and then prepare to be amazed by the views & awesome light that awaits you. The large master bedroom offers a large customized walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom is larger than average with great closet space. A real chef’s kitchen offers subtlety in design but maximum usability and includes a SubZero fridge and Bertazzoni range. Black matte lacquered solid wood cabinets and honed black Granite slab countertops & backsplash recede into the background offering great storage without dominating the space, giving the spotlight to the views and light, perfect for entertaining. Two designer bathrooms feature a unique combination of hand-painted ceramic tiles, walnut vanities with excellent storage, and Hans Grohe fixtures. Custom light fixtures throughout are original Rich Brilliant & Willing fixtures and have been emulated, but never fully reproduced, by any other new development. Wide plank oak floors, floor-to-ceiling tilt and turn windows, and multi-zoned heating cooling are an additional accompaniment. This is a no-compromise home with unrivaled amenities. In addition to your private balcony in the sky you can also enjoy a common wild-flower meadow on the second-floor green rooftop, a windowed gym, a resident’s lounge, and a full-time doorman.

Williamsburg | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Equal parts family-friendly and millennial haven/nightlife destination, Williamsburg offers the best of all worlds. Whether by night or by day, the ‘Burg has endless options for every type of personality and interest--which has only increasingly become the case after the neighborhood was rezoned in 2005. With the floodgate opened for more varied types of businesses, Williamsburg saw one of the highest rates of development in the past decade than any other part of Brooklyn. 

Referred to as “Little Berlin” for its late night and club-oriented nature, Williamsburg works as hard as it plays. Apart from the Clubland concentrated around Wythe Avenue, there is also a slew of offices (like 25 Kent Avenue, a sprawling eight-floor, 500,000-square foot waterfront building) and co-working spaces such as WeWork, The Yard and Green Desk that make it an ideal location for the corporate-, startup- and tech-oriented set. 

With more offices setting their sights on this part of Brooklyn, it only makes sense that more people want to live close to where they work. Apart from your average walk-up apartment, W-burg has famously become home to numerous condos along the waterfront that continue to grow and expand in concert with the businesses and corporate hubs that have entered the environment. 

Even with its many and undeniable changes, however, Williamsburg remains an arts-friendly community, particularly with regard to music and literature. While DIY spaces have come and gone, certain staples have persisted to become institutions that still provide a place for up and coming musicians to perform. On the literary front, long-standing indie bookstores like Spoonbill and Sugartown and Book Thug Nation have paved the way for others to cross the river, namely McNally Jackson Books.
