The co-op with unique floor and wall details offers a breath of fresh air to prospective buyers.
Edwardian walk-up in Park Slope
Four-bedroom unit with original details asks $1.495M
Stephen Zacks
Brownstoner
If you’re looking for room
to spread out in a historic
apartment built for such, this
Edwardian unit has a rare four
bedrooms, in addition to a dining
room. That said, also in
true Edwardian fashion, it is
located on the top floor of a
four-story walkup and has
only one bathroom.
The living room is on the
small and narrow side, but
adequate, and seems to have
most of its original details intact,
as do the other rooms.
These include parquet with
inlaid borders, picture railing,
and door and window surrounds.
The dining room is
bigger and more ornate, with
a coffered ceiling, wainscoting,
and plate rail.
The remodeled kitchen
has Shaker-style cabinetry,
hex-tile floors and a stacked
washer and dryer. The renovation,
which doesn’t appear
to have been especially recent,
likely closed off a second door
leading to the hall; its reinstatement
could open up the
flow of the apartment.
The three bedrooms in the
rear are all reasonably large,
and carpeted. The smallest
bedroom, in the front off
the living room, has a wall
of storage and is being used
as an office.
The bathroom has been
nicely redone with white subway
tile on the walls, hex tile
floor and a marble console
sink. The listing by Shannon
Insana for Corcoran suggests
the co-op board would
be amenable to an owner adding
a second bathroom next
to the existing one.
The unit has windows on
three exposures and four
closets.
The building, located at
513 Eighth Ave. in the Park
Slope Historic District, was
built circa 1909-10 and designed
by William Debus. He
was among a number of wellknown,
turn-of-the-century architects
adopting neo-Classical
details — such as the building’s
columned entry portico
topped with a low balustrade
above the entablature.
The building is part of a
full-block development of
four-story apartment houses

all have alternating bands of

brick on the ground floor, and
cornices with square brackets
and dentils. The third floor
windows are detailed with
curved blind arches of ornamental
stone on slightly
projecting blocks.
The last exchange in the
co-op was the second-floor
apartment, which sold in
2013 for $1.05 million, according
to Acris. This one,
whose monthly maintenance
is $575, is asking $1.495 million.
