Property Description for 31 8th Ave, 2

31 8th Avenue, Unit 2 is a sophisticated coop apartment in north Park Slope featuring two private outdoor spaces, and it is like nothing else on the market.
Occupying the parlor floor of a 5-unit brownstone co-op, this exciting home has 11-foot ceilings, exposed whitewashed brick, central air conditioning and its own private entrance from the stoop. The living room includes a wood-burning fireplace, stained glass windows, custom shelving by Brooklyn's own Atlas Industries and lighting by George Nelson and Atelier de Troupe. The kitchen is complete with custom ceiling-height cherry cabinets, extra-wide Carrara marble counters and high-end appliances. The bathroom boasts Hansgrohe and Montreaux fixtures, Jielde lighting, a Duravit sink, a deep soaking tub, and a vintage-design medicine cabinet by Restoration Hardware. The vast primary bedroom, accessed through a custom mirrored French door, overlooks the terrace through a set of gorgeous French doors. With three closets, one of which is a custom walk-in, and extra-deep and high cabinets above each closet, there is ample storage in this home. A fourth closet contains a stacked, vented washer-dryer. The back room features two walls of windows and a skylight and would be an ideal home office. The apartment also features six in-ceiling Bose and Boston Acoustics speakers in the living area, bathroom and primary bedroom.
Outside, the apartment offers an additional 700 square feet of private outdoor space spread out over two levels. The easily maintained, landscaped garden features hydrangeas, hostas, a blossoming cherry tree and other foliage that will continue to take root in the years to come. Additionally, the owners have installed a covered outdoor gym in the yard that will remain with the home, as well as a sweet swing.
This small, friendly co-op building allows generous basement storage, under-the-stoop bike storage, and the main hallway of the building may be used for stroller parking and packages - all at no additional cost. Pets allowed on approval. The prime location has the advantages of both Park Slope and Prospect Heights; it is close to 2/3 and B/Q trains, Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Library, Fausto, Union Market and La Taq to name a few. Please visit one of our open houses or inquire for a private appointment.
Floorplan represents current apartment configuration, which may not conform to official legal documentation. This unit is a 2 bedroom as listed in the coop offering plan, currently used as a one bedroom plus office. Purchasers should consult with their legal or architectural professionals to determine legal use parameters.

Park Slope | Brooklyn

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).
