8 Saint Marks Place

Overview of 8 Saint Marks Place

Eight Saint Marks Place is a 14-unit boutique condominium completed in 2017 by Barrett Design & Development, strategically positioned at the intersection of Boerum Hill, Fort Greene, Park Slope, and the Gowanus Art District. The 8-story building features a distinctive architectural design with thin, elongated bricks, deeply inset windows, and elegant vertically ribbed granite piers beneath the entrance marquee. The developer purchased the site in 2015 for $5.65 million, and the building includes 561 square feet of ground floor retail space, with plans for a mural by Groundswell, a Brooklyn based nonprofit organization.

The residences showcase sophisticated finishes throughout, including 6-inch red oak plank flooring (with select units featuring 9-inch wide plank oak from Spain), honed Basaltina stone countertops, and custom white oak and charcoal gray cabinetry. Most apartments feature private elevator access opening directly into the units, while bathrooms are appointed with anthracite porcelain mosaic tile, oak vanities, and Grohe chrome fixtures. All units include in-unit Bosch washers and dryers, Frigidaire induction cooktops, and integrated Bosch appliances.

The building offers an impressive variety of layouts, from the 1,680 square foot maisonette duplex (Unit 1A) with over 700 square feet of private outdoor space and its own entrance, to three bedroom corner apartments with 28 foot long living rooms. Penthouse B spans 1,682 square feet with two private terraces totaling 190 square feet of outdoor space. Several units feature private gardens, courtyards, or terraces, while unique conveniences include in-unit trash chutes in select apartments and oversized private storage cages in the basement.

Building amenities include a virtual doorman, bicycle storage, and a landscaped roof terrace with 360 degree views spanning from brownstone Brooklyn to the Manhattan skyline. The location provides exceptional transit access with 11 subway lines plus the LIRR nearby, while residents enjoy proximity to Smith Street's restaurant scene, BAM cultural district, and the diverse offerings of four distinct Brooklyn neighborhoods. The building also features a package room with UPS and USPS drop off service, ensuring convenient delivery management for residents.
