557 8th St. #1L

NEXT OPEN HOUSE: Wednesday, Feb. 15, 5:30-7 p.m. Make this your home — for years! Sprawling the length of an eighty-foot building is this beautifully renovated apartment — one of eight in a responsibly managed, financially solvent owner-occupied co-op, situated half a block from Prospect Park. The sun-strewn, triple-bay living room is nearly 350 square feet, so bring on the L-shaped couch, over-sized television and formal dining table! The windowed U-shaped kitchen is not only one cook’s dream, but several: There’s room to move! Finishes include granite counter tops, maple cabinets, quarry floor tile and a tranquil sea foam glass backsplash. Full-sized appliances include a French-door refrigerator, dishwasher and double oven. As you work your way back toward the bedrooms, you’ll appreciate how both sides of the hallway can be transformed into a perfect gallery for your art and photos. The bathroom has been appointed with a vessel sink, shower with multiple heads, slate floor and colors that inspire CALM. The bedrooms lie quietly at the rear of the apartment with the master at the far end for the ultimate in privacy. This apartment has the exclusive use of a secluded rear deck with a hot tub, grill and benches, all conveniently built in for your enjoyment. Polished natural oak floors and nine-foot ceilings enhance the clean, airy and spacious feel of this apartment. Store bikes and bulk items — gratis — in the basement where laundry lives, as well. Proximity to highly regarded schools, exceptional restaurants and retail and, of course, Prospect Park, only adds to the allure of this home and location. (Sorry, NO subletting.)
