235 8th Street

Thoughtfully renovated with an eye for detail, this lovely Park Slope townhouse mixes modern design with classic character and exudes charm in the process. With an extra deep yard and almost 2200 square feet of available FAR, there is plenty of space to expand this sweet abode if the desire or need arises down the road.

On the parlor floor, the working WOODBURNING FIREPLACE serves as the focal point for the room. A lovely sitting area is adjacent the kitchen and dining area offering the perfect place to relax while keeping the chef company. The beautifully renovated kitchen has abundant storage and workspace with custom cabinetry, including a large pantry, a large island, soapstone countertops, and stainless steel appliances including a Viking range and hood, a Fisher & Paykel fridge and a Bosch dishwasher. Southern and northern exposure brings in lovely light no matter the time of day. The back door leads to a large deck. Overlooking the expansive and lush garden below, it would be hard to find a better place for morning coffee or to grill and dine al fresco.

On the second floor of the home you'll find an enormous primary suite spanning the entire floor. Three large south-facing windows plus a skylight bring in gorgeous light, while the beamed ceiling and exposed brick offer a rustic feel. Large closets line one side of the room, while the en suite bath features classic subway tile, a walk-in shower, pedestal sink, custom storage cabinet and a large skylight.

On the garden floor, which has its own entrance under the stoop, you'll find the den and the second bedroom. With views of the garden, the bedroom is quiet and tranquil. The bathroom is ingeniously split with the WC on one side of the hall and the shower and sink on the other, making both spaces feel roomy. A back "mudroom" offers great storage for outdoor gear and gardening needs.

Throughout the house you'll find hardwood floors and ductless mini-split air conditioning. Best of all, the verdant garden, measuring over 1000 square feet, has been beautifully landscaped with herringbone brick pavers framed by beds of blooming perennials, flowering shrubs, and lush greenery.

Located on 8th Street in the heart of Park Slope, the house is one block from the F, G, and R trains at 4th Avenue and 9th Street, a half block from 5th Avenue with all of its fabulous restaurants and shops, and just four blocks from Prospect Park. A better location is hard to find.
