Perched majestically on a high floor of an elegant pre-war Park Slope building, this sprawling corner two-bed, one-bath co-op offers dramatic open views and abundant natural light from multiple exposures along with traditional period details. The entry hallway includes a deep coat closet and leads into the main living space where there is an expansive, sun-drenched living room with ample room for dining and a pair of windows separated by built-in bookshelves facing sylvan treetops and opulent mansion rooftops of Eighth Avenue towards Prospect Park. To the left is the kitchen and dining nook. The windowed kitchen overlooks Downtown Brooklyn and boasts plenty of cabinetry and counter space, a granite-topped peninsula with a built-in wine rack, and a built-in desk. Down the hall, which has a linen closet, is a tremendous primary bedroom with two deep closets as well as overhead storage and dual exposures with grand Brooklyn views. The second bedroom has its own closet and an oversized window with unobstructed views of the Lower Manhattan skyline and can accommodate a queen-size bed, making it a comfortable guest room, cheery nursery, or functional home office. The classically tiled windowed bathroom overlooks the city, as well. Tall beamed ceilings, original blonde ribboned parquet and rift-sawn hardwood flooring, decorative moldings, and new historically appropriate soundproof casement windows are found throughout the home. Nestled along Park Slope’s fabled Gold Coast, the coveted pet-friendly elevator building affords residents with the services of a part-time door person, communal laundry facilities, private storage (short waitlist, for a fee), bike storage ($10/month - subject to availability), and a live-in super who has been with the building for the past two decades. The elegant building is conveniently positioned just one block in either direction to bucolic Prospect Park and 7th Avenue shopping and dining and is also within proximity to Grand Army Plaza and the Brooklyn Public Library. Multiple transit lines, including the 2/3, B/Q, and F/G, are at your fingertips.
