Property Description for 408 Saint Johns Place, 4-F
Nestled on one of the prettiest tree-lined blocks in all of Prospect Heights, this lovely one-bedroom apartment is beautifully designed and well-laid out with absolutely no wasted space. The open living plan and large west-facing windows create a spacious, bright and airy feel. The renovated kitchen has a modern feel with white cabinetry, dark grey quartz countertops, and stainless steel and black appliances. The kitchen has plenty of storage and workspace without the need for a center island. Instead, a dining table neatly separates the space and offers seating for six. A Bosch washer/dryer and a large closet line the hallway towards the well-appointed south facing bedroom. The windowed bath has been updated with subway tile, classic black octagon floor tile, and a black vanity, giving a classic feel. Dark stained parquet floors and high ceilings are found throughout the apartment. In the heart of Prospect Heights, this 35 unit prewar co-op building has an elevator and a sunny courtyard. Other features include a live-in superintendent, storage, bike storage, and a fitness area. The building is pet friendly too. Best of all, the location is fantastic -- moments from the great shopping and restaurants on Vanderbilt and Washington Avenues and minutes from Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, the Brooklyn Museum and the Brooklyn Library, and near the 2, 3, B and Q lines.

Prospect Heights | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Prospect Heights is a small residential neighborhood surrounded by big attractions. It’s rich in culture and offers the perfect blend of old Brooklyn charm and modern-day hipness.
Residents of this tight-knit community include young professionals, families and long-time residents. It’s a walkers paradise - just steps from Prospect Park and a short walking distance to neighborhoods like Downtown Brooklyn, Fort Green and Clinton. You’re close to culture too. Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Library, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Barclays Center are all nearby.
Prospect Heights is bordered by Flatbush Avenue to the west, Washington Avenue to the east, Atlantic Avenue and Dean Street to the north and Eastern Parkway to the south.
Prospect Heights, like many areas of New York City, was first inhabited by indigenous tribes and eventually settled by the Dutch and turned into farmland.
A significant part of the Revolutionary War was fought in Prospect Heights and the surrounding areas. Known as the Battle of Brooklyn, it was the first military engagement following the Declaration of Independence. Things didn’t go so well for American forces so they retreated and the British occupied Manhattan for several years after the Battle of Brooklyn.
In 1867, the opening of Prospect Park caused major housing growth in Prospect Heights. The middle-class neighborhood was soon populated by Jewish, Italian, and Irish workers. Many of which were shop-owners or employed as laborers in nearby factories.
Housing in Prospect Heights includes single-family row houses, historic townhouses, co-ops, and new luxury condos. The median listed price for a 1-bedroom in Prospect Heights is $680,000 with an average price per square foot is $944.
The neighborhood's commercial artery runs along Vanderbilt Avenue and Washington Avenue. The variety of businesses adds to the charm of the neighborhood. They include bars, pubs, restaurants and mom-and-pop stores of all types. The shops and eateries are a perfect alternative to the big-name attractions that bracket the neighborhood. It's a little bit of everything in this neighborhood.
Subways are plentiful in Prospect Heights. Its proximity to Manhattan is another perk of the neighborhood. It's about a half-hour train ride. The B, D, N, Q, R, 2, 3, 4 and 5 subway lines all serve the Atlantic Avenue/Barclays Center station. 2, 3, 4, B and Q trains cover the neighborhood and the A and C trains are nearby too.
