Description

A place to stretch out and relax, or bar-b-que, in the shade or the sun. Tucked away on one of Park Slope's most coveted blocks, this charming 1 bed, 1 bath co-op offers New Yorkers a peaceful oasis from the rush of city life. Listen to mourning doves as you sip your morning coffee on the outdoor patio in your private garden, and end your day passing quiet, tree-lined streets as you return home. The largest apartment in this friendly 10-unit co-op, the owners recently renovated with a clean, Scandinavian aesthetic with a focus on creating a haven for their family. Enter to find a small vestibule and open plan living/dining room with direct access to the outdoors. Nestled in the back is an ample bedroom that looks out onto the garden. New Marvin windows and sliding door, all new appliances including a Bosch dishwasher and European-style fridge, recessed lighting, and a custom marble countertop are just some of the upscale details that you'll find. The pet-friendly building has incredibly low maintenance, no underlying mortgage, laundry room just one floor down, and generous private storage. Less than one block to Prospect Park, near Grand Army Plaza Farmers' Market, and 10 minutes to the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, the Brooklyn Public Library and the famous Park Slope Food Co-op. Conveniently located to the 2/3 and B/Q trains. A short distance to the vibrant restaurant scene of Prospect Heights and Vanderbilt Avenue, or the cozy coffee shops and lifestyle shops of Park Slope's 7th Avenue.
