10 Eighth Ave. #2

Own a rare piece of Park Slope history! Welcome to the extraordinary parlor floor of the mansion at 10 Eighth Avenue, one of the grand Romanesque Revival homes built in 1891 by architect James Mumford for horse-racing magnate Philip Dwyer. Situated on the storied stretch of Eighth Avenue known as Sportsmen’s Row, this remarkable residence offers the rare opportunity to live within one of Brooklyn’s most distinctive historic homes.

From the moment you enter this ~1,800 sf, 2.5 bedroom, 2 bath home, the scale and elegance are breathtaking. Soaring ~15-foot ceilings, dramatic doorways, and beautifully preserved architectural details set the tone. Original stained-glass panels, intricate millwork, exposed brick, and oversized CitiQuiet windows flood the home with natural light while creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that perfectly balances historic grandeur with modern comfort.

The kitchen is both elegant and practical, anchored by an island that provides generous counter space and storage. Wood cabinetry pairs beautifully with a soft green tile backsplash, open shelving for display, and modern stainless-steel appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a gracious dining area, centered around the original fireplace mantel and exposed brick
