Property Description for 78 8th Ave, 3-E
Prewar charm meets chic contemporary in this sun-splashed one-bedroom, one-bathroom home in one of Park Slope's most revered co-operatives just moments away from Prospect Park.
Step inside this gorgeous Art Deco gem and discover hardwood floors, extra-tall ceilings and lovely east-facing casement windows that beautifully frame the treetops and historic rooftops of Eighth Avenue.
A gracious foyer opens to the open-plan living/dining area anchored by a beautifully renovated kitchen. Custom cabinetry is trimmed with Caesarstone countertops and subway tile backsplashes, and the upscale stainless steel appliances include a Smeg range and Bosch dishwasher.
The wide bar counter is the perfect spot for casual dining and conversation. Head to the spacious bedroom to find plenty of room for a king-size bed and home office area. There are two roomy California Closets here, and two more closets lead to the updated windowed bathroom.
Built in 1923, 78 Eighth Avenue is a handsome brick and terra cotta co-operative building with Tudor-inspired details. Residents of the pet-friendly cooperative enjoy live-in superintendent service, elegant common areas, an enchanting courtyard garden, package room, laundry, storage and bike room.

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).
