509 2nd Street, 3-R

This beautiful, newly renovated, sun-drenched home in the Park Slope Historic District is near everything that makes the Slope such a desirable place to live. It features hardwood floors, a brand-new kitchen, and boasts an extra room that can serve as a home office or a nursery. It is in a prime location less than half a block from cafes, restaurants, and shopping on Seventh Avenue and from PS 321 (an elementary school), and less than two blocks from the endless activities to be had in Prospect Park.

The bright large front bedroom easily fits a king-size bed. It is connected to the extra room, and the two rooms can serve as a suite. The bathroom has a comfortable cast iron bathtub with a rain shower head above, and built-in shelves. The rear bedroom has a large closet with double doors and built-in bookshelves. The living/dining area, also in the rear of the apartment, is open to the large, sunny kitchen with new floors, shelving, and a new dishwasher and a new fridge, both stainless steel.

Each unit in this eight-unit pet-friendly coop building has its own dedicated storage room in the basement. The basement also features free laundry with relatively new washers and dryers. There is also a shared outdoor space behind the building.

Four subway stations are nearby, with access to the F, G, R, B, Q, 2 and 3 trains, most of which connect to additional subway lines and the LIRR at the nearby Barclays Center. There is plentiful shopping on Seventh Avenue, Fifth Avenue, Flatbush Avenue, and Downtown Brooklyn (with its two branches of Trader Joes). It is also not far from the Whole Foods at Third Avenue and Third Street. The nearby Park Slope Food Coop and Key Food are other grocery options.

Nearby cafes include Blue Bottle, Starbucks, and Hungry Ghost, as well as a caf in the Barnes and Noble Bookstore. Popular nearby restaurants include One More Charm Thai, Bareburger, Sushi Katsui, Pasta Louise, Noodle Lane, Maya Taqueria, Calexico, Winner, Earthen, Electric Beets, and Ai di La Trattoria. The Prospect Park YMCA, Prospect Park Zoo, the Central Branch of the Brooklyn Public Library, the Brooklyn Museum, the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music are all in or adjoining the neighborhood.
