Park Slope Two-Bedroom With Stained Glass Asks $7,000

"Designed by noted architect Montrose Morris in the early 20th century, the Beaux-Arts walkup, now a co-op, sits just a block from Prospect Park. In a grand Montrose Morris-designed apartment building turned co-op, this two-bedroom rental has a recently updated kitchen, in-unit laundry, and two full baths. It is on the first floor of 133 8th Avenue, which sits just a block away from Prospect Park. Plans for two four-story apartment houses on the corner of 8th Avenue and Montgomery Place were filed in 1910 by builder George E. Lovett & Co. Architect Montrose Morris was behind the Beaux-Arts style of both walk-ups."

"Likely carved out of a larger original flat, this unit has rooms radiating off a central foyer that is large enough for dining. There are new light-wood floors throughout and most walls and trim are in shades of cream and white. A burst of yellow in the foyer where a graphic wallpaper adorns one wall is one exception. An arched doorway leads to the living room, which is generously sized and has two exposures and a closet. The windowed kitchen has been renovated with pale green cabinets, an apron front sink, and stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher."

"Across from the fridge, a stacked washer and dryer are tucked under a cabinet. The primary bedroom is expansive, with a walk-in closet, an en suite bath, and a nook that could serve as a petite office. The en suite bath, with neutral finishes, has a walk-in shower while the second full bath contains a vintage tub and a stained glass window. The second bedroom has windows on two exposures, a dark blue ceiling, and some built-in shelving. Amenities in the building include bike storage and a video intercom. Rent is $7,000 a month and Marc Solomon of Compass has the listing."
