Property Details
Description
Welcome to 8 8th Ave, a rare parlor pre-war gem, located on the historic Sportsmen's Row, the stretch of the avenue between Flatbush and Lincoln Place, which earned its moniker when early residents included jockey James McLaughlin and other local, well-known athletes of the era. This beautifully maintained two-bedroom apartment, housed within a 25-foot-wide townhouse, awaits its lucky new owner. One flight up, you'll be greeted by soaring 13ft ceilings and a spacious living room awash with light from east-facing windows. The ambiance is further enhanced by an original wood-burning fireplace and mahogany moldings. The recently renovated kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances and modern finishes. The adjacent dining area is the perfect spot to enjoy a meal while gazing out of an oversized bay window at the tree-lined street below. Above the main living space, you'll find a sizable loft area, an ideal retreat for an afternoon of reading. A hallway leads you to the large primary bedroom with ample storage and space for a king-sized bed. The east-facing second bedroom provides extra space for your needs, ensuring that your living space is flexible and adaptable to your lifestyle. In addition to the washer/dryer, a loggia rounds out this beautiful home. The well-maintained, pet-friendly, self-managed 6-unit co-op building at 8 Eighth Ave offers vintage Park Slope charm and is conveniently located near the area's highlights, including Grand Army Plaza, Prospect Park, and the vibrant Flatbush Avenue. The nearby Brooklyn cultural corridor boasts the Central Brooklyn Public Library, Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, and the world-famous Brooklyn Museum. Commuting is a breeze with easy access to B, Q, 2 & 3 trains. Sublets and smoking are not permitted.
