8020 4th Ave – E-8

No detail was overlooked in the painstaking renovation of this dazzling 1BR pre-war co-op. Perched on a high floor with a gracious, flowing layout, the apartment boasts majestic harbor views and inspiring sunset views from each room. Entering the foyer, there is bountiful storage, including a coat closet, a custom shoe closet, and a storage closet along with two elegant chandeliers. The unit offers eight closets in total, including two walk-ins, with genuine wood shelving and stainless steel rods. Through the arched entry is the voluminous west-facing living room with two windows with open views and ample space for furnishings. The expansive king-size bedroom features two exposures and two closets along with a professionally-installed air conditioning unit. Comprised of two rooms, the expanded eat-in kitchen has been thoughtfully redesigned with the chef in mind. There are new stainless steel appliances (5-burner range, microwave, dishwasher, and bottom-freezer French door refrigerator), granite countertops, espresso shaker-style cabinets with Anthropologie hardware, a sleek glass tile backsplash, and high-end sink and faucet with an in-sink garbage disposal. The sizable center island offers additional storage and workspace and serves as a dining table for four. The stylishly-updated bathroom is outfitted with a French-country vanity, a Toto toilet, and a rainwater shower head and has a sizable linen closet outside the door.

New Nordic-chic white birch floors and custom lighting from Restoration Hardware throughout add a contemporary touch to the classic space, artfully contrasting the original plaster moldings. Radiant natural sunlight and high ceilings lend an airy, cheerful atmosphere. Custom-fitted accordion blinds, updated electric, and wiring for an ADT security system are additional perks.

Set in the heart of Bay Ridge, the cat-friendly Art Deco building offers residents a new elevator, an elegant lobby, communal laundry facilities, a well-equipped gym, a lending library, a lovely shared courtyard with furniture for dining and lounging as well as a two barbecues, storage (waitlist), and an attentive live-in super who has served the building for a number of years. Shopping, dining, recreation, and transportation are within a short distance, as is access to the BQE and Belt Parkway.
