On the top floor of this wonderfully cared for 8-unit coop, apartment 4L gets great light with northern exposure in the front and southern exposure in the back. The large primary bedroom has bay windows looking out upon the treetops of 8th Street. Built-in closets, floor-to ceiling shelving and cabinetry, and a desk area are framed by a charming stained glass window. More fantastic storage and built-ins line the wall of the den/family room-the perfect place to relax and watch a movie.
Down the hall, the windowed, renovated bath features glass tile, a pedestal sink and clever storage solutions. The second bedroom easily accommodates bunk beds, but could also fit a queen sized bed. Adjacent to the kitchen, the living room and dining area are bathed in afternoon light coming through the two large windows. The kitchen features tons of white cabinetry, dark grey granite counters, and ample work space. The washer/dryer is neatly tucked away next to the fridge.
Throughout the apartment you'll find split-system ductless AC units, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and charming period details like picture-frame molding, exposed brick and tin ceilings.
The coop has EXTREMELY LOW MAINTENANCE (due to no underlying mortgage), plus bike storage and a 9.5' x 12.5' storage are in the basement. Cats are welcome (SORRY, NO DOGS). Around the corner from the F train at 9th Street, less than a half block from the fantastic shops, eateries and amenities of 7th Avenue, around the corner from the YMCA and Brooklyn Library, two blocks from Prospect Park and less than a block away from PS 39, the location is fantastic.
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).
