Property Description for 221 8th Ave, 4

Charm abounds in this stunning Park Slope home, which perfectly intersects close access to Prospect Park and the 7th avenue corridor - filled with shops, cafes, boutiques, and restaurants. Step into this home and you are immediately greeted with the grandeur of this 1920's building. High ceilings, double high windows, preserved original floors, beautiful wood molding and trim, and curved plaster ceilings elevate every corner.

Just one flight up, a proper foyer with expansive closet space provides ample storage, and a perfect entry point to this home. Centered between the living room to the left and the dining room to the right, the open layout is ideal for entertaining and modern living.

The open kitchen was beautifully gut renovated with top-of-the-line Bosch appliances, Fisher and Paykal refrigerator, quartz countertops, slab backsplash, farmhouse sink, a hood that vents outside, dishwasher, and ample storage. The current owner is a professional chef, so the kitchen efficiency was essential.

There is a breakfast bar that opens the kitchen up to the dining + living room spaces, accented LED lighting, and storage on the outer portion of the island as well. Tons of thoughtful details were added.

The dining room is gracious in size and can easily accommodate a large dining table for 8-12 guests. Off of the living room is a small balcony (one of only two in the building) that is perfect for growing your own plants/herbs or sitting outside with a book on sunny days. The living room offers exceptional afternoon light with direct views of a beautiful church with stained glass windows. A large hallway spans the length of the home connecting the two bedrooms and one bathroom with the perfect gallery space for hanging photos of your loved ones, or displaying your art collection.

The bathroom was also recently renovated with a custom vanity, additional storage, and a solid wood pocket door. The master is a peaceful sanctuary with magnificent morning light through its two windows, quietly placed in the back of the building. The current owners also added a huge walk in closet (also with window) for his and hers items to fit comfortably.

This self-managed 8 unit co-op affords boutique living in the heart of Park Slope's landmark district. A finished roof deck provides spectacular city views and the perfect space for entertaining friends on a sunny day. There is substantial storage in the basement (spot allotted after purchase), bike storage, and a washer/dryer in the apartment.

Extremely low monthlies sweeten the deal, while also being zoned for PS 321, and having easy access to multiple subway lines (B,Q,2,3,F,G) and the B69/B67 bus.

The co-op is financially sound and welcomes pets.

Please reach out if you are interested in viewing. All visitors will need to wear a mask and complete proper covid forms prior to entering. Due to covid protocols all open houses are by appointment only.

Really a dream come true. Make this your next home!

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).
