Extremely rare opportunity to live in a splendid pre-war duplex 3BR, 2 bath home spanning significant sections of the parlor and garden levels of a grand, pre-war mansion. Accessed through a private entrance in the rear of the building that leads to a truly magical space -- what was once the grand dining room of this landmark home. It offers two exposures, with wide spans of leaded and stained-glass windows, a stately decorative fireplace, window seats and built in cabinetry. It is used as an oversized living and dining room. It opens on to a modern, renovated kitchen. Wonderfully designed, with custom cabinetry and top-notch appliances, including a stainless-steel Wolf stove and an integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher. It also has two windows and built-in seating. There is one bedroom upstairs, with a full-sized bathroom ensuite. Downstairs there are two oversized bedrooms, each with two exposures from its corner location. There is also a generously sized, hall bathroom and in-unit laundry on this level as well. Common laundry facilities are available additionally in the building as well. This unit has its own private outdoor space. The lush, common garden for the building is easily accessible as well from a gate within the unit's private patio area. 101 8th Avenue is located at the corner of President Street on the park block. Its immediate proximity to Prospect Park, and the abundant conveniences, cultural and recreational offerings that Park Slope offers makes this an unparalleled location. EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY. No pets and no smoking.
