500 Fourth Ave. #9G

If you think that you know the two bedroom apartments at 500 4th avenue, you need to look again! This oversized CORNER 2 bedroom, 2 bath home on the 9th floor of one of Park Slope’s only full service buildings, with THREE separate elevators, is a light-filled paradise. Add a third windowed bedroom/home office by putting up one simple wall, OR enjoy a master suite beyond your wildest dreams. It is the perfect live/work space to spread out if you anticipate more time working at home in the future, and you will even enjoy your very own private outdoor space, a large covered terrace facing South and East.

Dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows in every room allow light to stream into this home all day long. Situated above the treetops and the leafy green brownstone blocks of this historic neighborhood, you will experience open views of the water and skyline, sunrises, sunsets, and Prospect Park 365 days a year from both bedrooms, the living and dining spaces, and from your large private terrace, large enough for dining and gardening. Two marble bathrooms, central heating and cooling, abated taxes until 2025 (projected at only $390 per month after tax abatement ends) full service amenities, and the subway right outside your door make this apartment a must-see.

Designed with comfort and luxury in mind, this home includes a large chef’s kitchen, complete with a Viking appliance package, custom cabinetry, a massive Calacatta marble-topped island perfect for prepping and dining, and a stunning marble backsplash. Spa-like bathrooms have been outfitted with Gaudi marble floors, limestone walls with glass accents, and spacious custom vanities. The master bathroom is unusually large and includes both a glass-enclosed walk-in shower AND a freestanding deep soaking tub. Two sinks in an oversized custom vanity with drawers and two mirrored inset medicine cabinets allow for excellent storage. The master suite also features two separate walk-in closets and a dressing room area, all outfitted with custom shelving, so all you have to do is move right in. The second bedroom is also quite spacious and would even accommodate a king-sized bed AND additionally enjoys a walk-in closet of its own.

Enter through the 24-hour attended lobby and right on to the subway at the 4th avenue and 9th street subway station, or take a run up to Prospect Park. Enjoy amazing conveniences in every direction, including fantastic restaurants, grocery stores, the YMCA complete with swimming pool, not to mention all of the groovy new spots in Gowanus and Park Slope including the Whole Foods. The location is perfect and accessible to everything, while the building itself offers an array of services for easy living on a daily basis, including a fitness center, a parking garage, full-time doorperson, live-in super, playroom and resident’s lounge and game room. A tax abatement in place until 2025, in addition to reasonable monthlies and outstanding services make this spacious and luminous home a must-see. Pet friendly too.
