Property Description for 140 8th Ave, 6-E

OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED FOR SUNDAY MARCH 1 ACCEPTED OFFER

Chic, renovated & spacious. 3 bedroom, 2 bath home in a landmark, full-service, pre-war co-op building . Wonderful light + views throughout from its 4-exposures. This home has been beautifully redesigned by a dream team consisting of a much-loved architect and an ever-in-demand contracting firm. Together they blended its original classic, pre-war elegance with an updated modern sensibility.

The open floorplan kitchen-dining-living room is welcoming and light filled. The kitchen is stunning and expansive. It has a classic, minimalist style + an intelligent design. Custom cabinetry is topped with a large expanse of gorgeous quartzite counters. Top-of-the-line appliances include a stainless steel Bertazzoni oven, Miele dishwasher and an integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator. Its standalone, built-in pantry provides additional storage and a tucked-away workspace for small appliances. An oversized kitchen island opens on to the large dining area. It features custom-designed, walnut cabinets and counters for additional serving space. The living room has a lovely span of windows, a beautiful built-in walnut shelving system for media, room for multiple seating areas and charming views of rooftops as well as a peek on to Prospect Park, which is just one block away.

The master bedroom is spacious. Its corner windows offer multiple exposures. It has a gorgeous wall of custom, modern built-in closets. The second bedroom is enormous as well. It has a double window with sweeping, western rooftop and harbor views. The third bedroom is lovely and well-sized with charming built-in cabinetry. Each of the bathrooms in this home are beautiful, tasteful and modern. One has a portion of it sectioned off as a wet-room with a shower area next to its large bathtub. Custom cabinetry surrounds a Pietra Cardoza stone-topped vanity. There is also gorgeous tile and black matte California Industries faucets as well. The 2nd bathroom is lovely. Its walls are clad with Ann Sacks tile. There is also a tucked away home office area, with custom walnut desk and open shelving. The closets are plentiful and smartly designed. White oak flooring is used throughout this home.

140 8th Avenue is an Art Deco masterpiece. It is a white-glove, elevator building, doorperson and a live-in super. The basement houses its laundry room, storage rooms, bike storage and a meeting/play room. It is pet friendly. Monthly maintenance includes electric charges. Prime location within the Park Slope Historic District. One block to Prospect Park, with its fabulous Saturday Farmer's Market. Convenient to multiple subway lines. Wonderful options for dining, shopping and cultural offerings nearby.

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).
