Property Description

56 8th Avenue
A romantic mansion with all the modern amenities.
Perfectly placed on one of the most picturesque blocks in Northern Park Slope, the "Murphy Mansion" exemplifies the artistic heritage and cultural fabric of this storied neighborhood. Standing a full 5 stories with its meticulously maintained original details, this residence is a testament to the opulent history of the neighborhood.
Built circa 1885, this gracious and grand townhome boasts six bedrooms, two full and two 1/2 bathrooms, a top-of-the-line custom kitchen, a perennial garden, a gas burning fireplace, original mahogany woodwork throughout and a stunning stained-glass atrium.
Original Victorian detail abounds with entry pier mirror, Jefferson shutters throughout, 6 decorative fireplaces and 1 gas fireplace all featuring original millwork, sliding bookcase and Lincrusta wallpaper that carries you up the staircase to the private bedroom quarters. The expansive primary suite, featuring pass-through closets and a sitting room, is a perfect respite from a day's work. On the next two floors, you will find 4 additional bedrooms adorned by the over-sized jaw-dropping stained glass atrium that elegantly filters in the natural light from above. All of these exquisite features have been meticulously maintained, but there is no shortage of modern luxuries: new mini split HVAC system throughout, new solar panels on the roof, Lutron lighting throughout and a screening room. The beautifully appointed eat-in kitchen features a Viking range, Viking wine fridge, a new Dacor refrigerator, quartz countertops and a Franke farmhouse sink with laundry room nearby in a two-story extension.
Whether cozying up by the fireplace or dining al-fresco under the stars in the perennial garden, this is truly a house for all seasons.
Ideally situated near glorious Prospect Park, local transportation, the Saturday farmers market, the Brooklyn Museum, the Barclays Center and all of the wonderful things that make Park Slope, Brooklyn home.
