Property Description for 40 Prospect Park West, 5-K

Across from Prospect Park in an elegant pre-war building you will find this classic 2 bedroom home.

Enter through the gracious foyer into the open living and dining area. The spacious living room gets lovely light through the oversized windows and is even large enough to accommodate an office area. The desk beneath the windows is the perfect place to work from home. Separated by the ornamental arches, the dining room is both large enough to host a big family holiday and intimate enough for a small dinner party. While the kitchen and bathroom have been renovated, the apartment still retains its old world charm, with many of the original details intact. You will be delighted to find pretty archways that frame the foyer and dining alcove, built ins and beautiful parquet floors. The windowed kitchen has granite countertops and custom Marsh cabinetry. The bathroom includes both tub and standing shower with multiple heads and body sprays. The master bedroom is enormous and bright and features a custom designed walk in closet. The second bedroom has corner windows and a lovely view of the tree tops at the entrance of the park. The apartment also comes with a private storage cell.

This elevator, pre war building is professionally managed and well maintained. It is a pet friendly coop with doorman service form 3:00PM to 7:00AM, a dedicated live-in super, laundry and bike storage. The location is unbeatable, with Prospect Park literally at your doorstep and only a short walk to 2/3/B/Q/F subway lines, parking garages and Citibike stations. The Brooklyn Museum, the Botanic Gardens and the weekend Farmer’s Market are a stone’s throw away, not to mention the many outstanding eateries, bars, cafes and shops. Zoned for PS 321.

Park Slope | Brooklyn

Quick Profile

Boasting beautiful tree-lined streets, brownstones and a range of activities for all age groups, Park Slope is consistently ranked as one of New York’s most desirable neighborhoods. Filled with lush parks and greenery, the neighborhood is also known for its rare combination of excellent public schools, award-winning restaurants, nightlife, small independently owned businesses and community gardens.

Situated at the western slope of Prospect Park, the neighborhood is divided into different sections: North Slope, Center Slope and South Slope. Depending on who you ask, of course, the definitions of where these borders end and begin may vary (is the divide between North and Center deemed Union Street, Garfield Place, 1st Street or 3rd Street? The one between Center and South 6th Street, 9th Street, 11th Street or 15th Street?). 

Regardless of what part of the Slope you find yourself on, there’s no shortage of architectural beauty. From row houses to brownstones to mansions, the idyllic setting of the neighborhood is further enhanced by its Romanesque and Renaissance Revival styles. Case in point of this is also two of the area’s most well-known churches, Park Slope United Methodist Church and Saint Augustine Roman Catholic Church. 

Revered for its family-friendly appeal, Park Slope is often regarded as one of the best places to raise a family in New York City. That said, it doesn’t mean that parents don’t know how to have a good time... a slew of bars constantly opening in the neighborhood ranging from the high-end cocktail saloon to the dive (well, by Park Slope standards, anyway).
