Description

Perched at the top of an elevating Prime Slope charmer, this splendid 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath is a joy to see. With nearly 10 foot ceilings throughout and all rooms are generously proportioned. You'll immediately sense the appealing pre-war flow. Always shedding light, the kitchen and both baths have windows....there are fifteen windows in all, with three exposures. The hallway widens, providing an opportune space for a desk. The bedrooms have four and five windows, both have two exposures. They measure 11 x 17 and 11 x 18; the master is en suite.

Nestled on this prime 8th Avenue corner since 1928, the building itself could hardly be more inviting. The deeply recessed arched entranceway and lobby are rich with detail. It's fashioned in the Tudor tradition with a tapestry of red brick with terra cotta ornamentation. Above is a central bay window and gables with finials at the roof. Wander out to an expansive center courtyard that's lovely from every angle. With a scattering of tables, this tranquil garden retreat is as sociable as you want to make it. It's all a creation of the esteemed Northeastern architectural team of Sugarman & Berger.

This is a well maintained building with a live in super, private storage, bike room, and large laundry area. Located in the PS 321 school district and close to the B, Q, 2 & 3 Trains. Sandwiched between Prospect Park and the great bistros and shops on 7th Avenue and the fabulous farmers market on Saturdays. Pets are welcome.
