118 8th Ave, 4-A

Stunning, renovated 2-bedroom home with high ceilings and tons of light in prime Park Slope! This 1,200 sq ft apartment is stately in its proportions while thoroughly modern in tone thanks to the architect/owner’s renovations that maximize natural light and functional living space. An abundance of light pours in from newly installed, historically appropriate, steel casement windows on two exposures, and the high, beamed ceilings add a feeling of depth and grandeur. The highlight of this home is the open, windowed, chef's kitchen with Corian countertops, Henry Built cabinets, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including a wine fridge. A large island with end-to-end cabinets separates it from the light and airy dining area, a welcoming and spacious living room, and a cleverly designed office area. Adjacent to the kitchen/living space is a den/media lounge that could easily function as a formal dining area, children’s play space, or home office. There is great flow, with the entertaining area on one side of the home and the sleeping quarters on the other. The primary corner bedroom has a generous and expansive feel thanks to dual exposures and built-in shelving, cabinets, headboard, and nightstands. It’s separated from the spacious light-filled second bedroom by a hall with a floor-to-ceiling custom bookshelf and storage unit. The well-maintained, windowed bathroom features Dornbracht polished chrome hardware and Flos light fixtures. The floors are original and hardwood. There are modern light fixtures throughout the space and two large, deep hallway closets provide ample storage space for off-season clothes and gear. The classically designed pre-war, elevator building has a part-time door staff, a full-time, live-in super, basement laundry, bike room, and storage (currently waitlisted). Pets allowed with board approval. Currently zoned for PS 321.
